Very big selection of bags at the Shanghai Hongqiao Airport. I saw:
  • Medor: black box, GHW
  • mini Verrou: black box and rose pourpre chevre, PHW (i think)
  • C19: rose pourpre epsom PHW
  • mini Roulis: rose azalea
All were available for immediate purchase!

Any ideas on their price? I have heard that H prices in China is very high when compared to US and other parts of Asia

I think it depends on what you buy. I bought a bag in China (reveal to come shortly!) that after a tax refund, ended up being around the same as if I bought it stateside (and factored in sales tax).

Hi, thanks for coming back

Yes, in that case then it really isnt that bad! Do overseas buyers get tax refunds from China? I didnt know that

It's a relatively new program, only in recent years. And limited to the big cities (e.g. Beijing, Shanghai) and to certain stores/brands. But yes, in Shanghai, Hermes is one of them!

Flew out from the Nagoya airport yesterday. The store was surprisingly well-stocked. They had everything I asked about in a few colors; bolide 27 and 31, lindy 26, GP30. They weren’t on display, the SA flipped through a file to tell me what the store has.

a reminder of the Chinese tax back usually limited to dept store purchase, if you get from BJ SKP dept store yes u can get tax back.
I had asked the hongqiao airport store before about tax back as they do not provide this service.
also another reminder they did lowered the price on some goods and with the exchange rate fluctuation so it's qutie similar to US price with tax.

yes I know EU is always cheaper but sometimes you can’t always visit Europe or they don’t have the items you want. so i was curious how Japan duty free compares and if it’s worth it if you find a hard to find item. thanks for your input!
