Hello-A family member is going to the UK in two weeks- is there any updated pricing for St Louis PM/GM in basic/special colors? Also, I've read conflicting information about the VAT refund? Is it 12, 15 or 20%? Thanks in advance.

I recently bought a basic black St Louis PM in London. I paid about $945 (U.S.) in store. My VAT refund of about $100 showed as a credit to my credit card account about one month after I returned home, so my net price was about $845 (U.S.). To receive the VAT refund you will have to show the bag to customs at Heathrow, so ensure you are carrying it or have it in your carry on bag.
Thank you so much!So the St. Louis PM with tax costs 515 in Paris. 17% tax off, nice for the non-EU guys

Hi-
I am traveling next month to London and I am wondering what the current price there is for the St. Louis in both sizes as well as special colors pricing. Another poster said the PM size in London was 480 pounds but how can this be right? I did conversion and that would come out to $601 U.S. dollars?!

I would also like clarification on the VAT process for London.
VAT process depends, but the VAT in the UK is 20%. When you put in for the refund, you get 13% back. My experience with VAT refund is with Harrods, Alexander McQueen, Selfridges, and Harvey Nichols. The 7% is essentially the service fee for processing the refund.
In France, I believe the VAT is also 20%. I have generally gotten 12-13% back. Same issue, the difference is the service fee and depends on who is processing the refund. Most of my VAT return experience is from Goyard. I cannot recall if it is 12 or 13% for them.

I did not find clarification on London prices here on forum so I called the boutique directly and got the information today. The St Louis PM in special colors is 980 pounds and the GM in special colors is 1140 pounds. Sales Associate told me the VAT return for those of us not living in the EU is about 12.5%. Hope this info. helps a fellow forum member!
I found this chart on Purse Bop and it is very helpful for anyone interested in buying a St. Louis in Paris and seeing the U.S. price comparison. Prices listed are for special colors. 
Thanks for your reply dVn85. Hope you are enjoying your Belvedere. Do you mind if you can let me know how do you like your Belvedere so far?
Happy Easter everyone!
Does anyone know the Paris price of the Victoire Wallet in both classic and special colors? Thank you

Does anyone know the price of this now in the US? I just got the St Louis GM in grey but now I want to add the Sac Hardy.
Hi, so this can definitely be done via email or phone do you think? Thankyou!
