Hammered Gold Alhambra - Still a long wait?

Also trying to hunt this YG bracelet. The customer service that I have been talking to just notified me that I can preorder, with full payment but the time frame could be 9 months. Thats too long of a wait.
I agree that it is too long of a wait while they have 100% and not 30% of the value of the item.
 
After having debated all month since orders reopened in July, I paid the 100% deposit to order a YG hammered 5-motif on 7/31 and I’m now extra glad I did. My SA texted me today and said that it is once again unable to be ordered as of the new month. I am in the US and I do not know if this applies to pieces other than the 5-motif but thought I would pass on what was shared with me.

Oh, I didn't know they had already stopped taking orders for the YG hammered 5 motif. I got in at the last minute then!!! Have you heard anything about the YG 10 motif?

Glad you got it! I asked my SA if any other pieces are affected—she said it is specifically yellow gold and she thinks the 10-motif is included. Rose gold is still available to order.
 
Looks like I just made the cut-off as well! I placed an order for a YG hammered 5 motif with full deposit on Tuesday 8/2 (my SA didn’t mention anything about not taking orders). My estimated wait time is 8 weeks. I’m based in the US.
 
My SA texted me yesterday to let me know that my ordered RG hammered 5 motif bracelet got back from resizing and will be delivered to me tomorrow! I placed my order with my SA back on July 10th, so the turnaround time for the order + resizing really exceeded my expectations. Will have ended up being exactly 1 month between order date and delivery date. I thought I would be waiting until at least the end of August. Will share pics when it arrives :blush:

Amazing! Congratulations
 
Hello fellow VCA lovers!
For those looking for the vintage hammered yg, they are available to order right now on the website.
Only took pics of the 5 motif bracelet and 10 motif necklace but the earrings and single motif necklace are also available. Have fun shopping!

Unfortunately, they are not available for order at the moment. You can look at many items online and it says order by phone. When you call they say "we are not taking orders at this time". It is frustrating.

That’s a bummer! if it says call to order, shouldn’t it be exactly that…?
I got too excited for a lot of people who have been looking tirelessly that I posted it here. Anyway, I called just now and found out that both the 20 motif and single motif necklaces are pre-order items with a full payment. Whereas the 10 motif, bracelet and earrings are at the moment sold out but can be put on a wishlist. Meaning, when they do come in, the SA will contact you…
These are for the yg. Their rg is not as scarce. Some can be ordered now she says.
