Cartier price increase thread *please include your location*

Wonder if van cleef will reduce the prices since it’s their sister company .

I'm so glad prices have been reduced! It was overpriced compared to the rest of the world. The Van Cleef 10 motif is $1k more in the US than the JUC, but in the UK, the 10 motif costs only £250 more than the JUC (previous price). I found that ridiculous and decided to stop buying Cartier in the UK. But now I am definitely open to it again!

By how much?

Depends what you’re looking at, but the love bracelet went down by a couple hundred pounds.

so upset since I bought it when it was £6k and now it’s £5650

 

[scheurin]

Thx. They do some rebalancing from time to time. Good for you in the UK but it wouldn't help us outside only becoming in line what we pay here anyway.

Prices have gone down in the UK since the weekend. Shocked, but the price of gold has dropped so that will be why. Could be a good time to buy if you were thinking of anything.

Wonder if it’s due to the strength of the pound? I used to buy my Cartier at heathrow but now with the pound being stronger and them getting rid of vat free shipping, it’s no longer a deal.

Yep as of January 2021 and no longer can claim VAT tax back when you leave the UK. It’s such a shame and will hurt heathrow and the economy. There is an active lawsuit going on with heathrow and global bleu again the UK government. I always make an effort to fly out of London over other cities in Europe but now I will prob choose Paris airport.

Thank you for the info. I loved duty free in Heathrow too. I didn't know it has been suspended.

I was told by a friend that it was because of the drop in the price of gold but that could be wrong. I also didn’t know there were no savings to be had at Heathrow anymore, that’s a shame!
