still on the fence! It’s a lot of money.I was gonna upgrade my diamond stud earrings before finding out about the price increase.
Now I’m contemplating between the two. Diamond will definitely appreciate in price.On the other hand, Cartier price will keep going up like other luxury goods. I feel like if I don’t bite the bullet now, I will regret it later. Just like when Chanel cf coat $2.5k I thought that was expensive, but still bought then anyway and look at the price now.
Either way I still got a couple more days to decide. My sa is out of town and won’t be back until 1/29. I won’t see him until 1/31 coz I’ll be out of town as well. Talked about last minute shopping ♀️
What about you? You seem pretty certain.
I am swift but impulsive with these purchases. I have found once I stack more than two regular size Loves the screws start to come open, so I try to keep the same basic stack of 2 regular Loves at a time stacked with models that can be removed more often for at least 6 months at a time before I switch it up to preserve the screws. I don’t like the regular thins/thins with diamonds on me. Therefore, thin pave is the next in line.
I actually feel that any non-branded diamond jewelry will lose value once you walk out of the store. However, well-known lines of Cartier (and VCA) jewelry for the most part will increase in value after a few years, because price increases are much steeper than just due to currency value adjustments. You are contemplating upgrading your diamond studs and you mentioned that diamonds will definitely increase in value. To sell a pair of diamond earrings that are unbranded for the same price as you bought them for you would have to wait at least 15-20 years I think. However, you may get so much use out of diamond studs and love them so much that their extrinsic value does not matter.
Life’s too short to regret not buying something for yourself! It’s actually an investment and better than buying a new car! Well depends on the car you buy nowadays lol.
I know what you mean about more expensive than a car and feeling guilty--- but if you can afford it- DO IT! Life is meant to be enjoyed and so is money! The WG looks INCREDIBLE with your stack. IMO- leave the diamond studs for later. If you really want bigger studs now invest in a beautiful pair of cz for the time being.
I am also now thinking I need to buy the small JUC w/ diamonds I want... I was going to leave it for a bit if no increase and was feeling good there wasn't one (my SA said she hadn't heard) but if you know pretty much for sure, I may need to do it now!
Let us know what you decide!!
This is from my SA in Vegas today that told me there WAS going to be a price increase earlier this month. Guess things have changed!
I literally just talked to my SA and she was pretty clear that there is no price increase as of now. I told her I want to buy the small JUC w/ diamonds in the next month or two and she said she's not concerned.
I'm not concerned that you're going to buy the JUC either 
good choice 
good choice
Yup!! I just confirmed with my sa. He said only for fragrance on 2/1. There’s still time
Nicole,
Price increase for fragrance on 2/1!! We still have sometime to decide
yay! I panic ordered a couple of things from abroad, so I will end up buying them once they arrive (since my SA went through all the trouble).
