Hello, I have some quick questions about the whole monogramming process!
So, is the price for monogramming calculated separately on the spot while purchasing a Goyard bag when you decide to send the bag to SF to monogram it (is there a shipping fee?)? I am planning on purchasing a bag from Goyard during my trip to Boston, personalize it, and then ship it to where I live, New York. Thank you
P.S. is the price for monogramming still $150 in the US?
Does anyone know the current Goyard St. Louis GM price in the US? THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much!!St. Louis GM is $1710 in the special colors. I'm not sure about the monogramming...mine was $300+, but my monogram was partially metallic. It was calculated separately from the price of the bag. I'll go look at my receipt in a few and see what it says. I bought my GM in San Francisco mid-January, and I got word monogramming was complete and it being shipped to me on Monday.
I live in U.S. and am considering ordering from Paris (London doesn't have grey in stock). Here's what I was quoted on the St Louis PM in limited colors...
London:
£717.00 (excluding VAT) + £95 shipping cost = $1334 USD. I believe I would still have to pay duties and taxes when item arrives in USA.
Paris:
760 Euros + 190 Euros shipping cost = $1284 USD
I asked why shipping was so expensive and was told "Our House requires the services of an exclusive carrier, that quotes shipping fees, that cover both insurances as well as local applicable taxes, along the value of your order, as an all included package.
There will be no extra charges to pay, once the parcel released by the customs, our local partner will get in touch with you to make an arrangement, ensuring a smooth door to door delivery."
I then asked them to clarify that "local taxes" did indeed refer to U.S. Duties and taxes and they replied...
"Further to your inquiry, we are glad to confirm that there will be no extra charges to pay.
If ever a dysfunction occurred, our carrier ensures all required assistance."
Clearly my concern is being taxed upon arrival, as I'm not sure what all the import duties and taxes are. I've seen anywhere from 9% to 20%.
Anyone order from from Goyard Paris and can confirm no additional taxes we're charged?
I live i the US too. So it's cheaper to buy in Paris than in Sanfo or Beverly Hills? I asked for their prices but nobody replied in my email.
Yes. When all is said and done, the prices in Paris are less than in U.S., but after currency exchange + bank fees, it would have come to less than a $200 savings.I live i the US too.
