So i just ordered from
Neiman Chicago Goyard this week. It was a $60 shipping fee then my local tax. Nothing above that.
In January the shipping fee was $30, so I paid $30 more for this St. Louis. Sucks but I still made the purchase….

I recently ordered Claire Voie via a distance sale from the Bal Harbour/Miami Boutique. The premium was $240, which I was not expecting. I wasn't charged sale tax so I guess I can "pretend"
like its a sales tax. Nonetheless, I love the bag. It was very difficult to get but worth the hassle and extra expense. For any future orders, I will stick with BG in NYC to order any standard stock items. They have the best customer service and free, overnight shipping. Unfortunately, their stock has been limited recently and I live in a state where there is a Neiman Marcus so I have to pay the sales tax. Prior to the pandemic, I had no issue ordering any bag/accessory I wanted from Bergdorf's.

Even during the pandemic I never had a BG issue. It’s literally been since December/January. I really don’t get why they have such a stock issue now but it sucks. The free shipping was great. It pained me to pay neiman shipping when it was $30 in January, let alone the $60 I paid Monday (and fyi, I still don’t have the bag, tracking says tomorrow), but I still did it so I guess I’m part of the problem haha.

It is. I was shocked too since it was only a couple weeks apart when I inquired about the second purchase. Just saw another member made a recent order but didn’t get charged any premium. I wonder if it’s based on the product categories and their demand.
That’s great you don’t have to pay any premium. I purchased an item in March and another in April and only paid the $30 shipping. Then in May they told me it’s going to be a $310 premium which includes the shipping cost.
NM and BG don't follow the premium fee practice. They have their own shipping fee (I think BG ships free actually) and they are required to collect the state sales tax. I think if you purchase and ship directly from Goyard in a state that has a store and ship to a state with a store you will pay the sales tax and not the premium.
Hi all, first time poster. I’m trying to purchase a St. Louis PM in the US. Shipping would be from FL to MA and they quote d me $200 for ground shipping. That does not sound right to me. Am I wrong and that’s what they charge? I’m sorry but that seems super expensive.

Sorry…I’ve read about the premium that is being added on and the rest of the problems people are having trying to buy bags. I can understand issues when looking for a new “special” bag, but in my opinion, Goyard is being unreasonable. I’m glad I bought my St. Louis several years ago with ease…ordered over the phone from Bergdorf’s and it was shipped directly from Goyard. I would never, ever pay $200 for shipping within the U.S.. No more Goyard for me!
