In the UK the stores generally refuse to sell to customers until the price hike (beginning of Jan, usually 02) eve if they have them in.

This year it will be 12.5% rather than the usual 10%.

I have already starting cutting down my wants based on this info. There are still at least 4 90s I'd like. Eager to check them all out in person.

I think the increase in UK could be in £ only?

WTF did they do to beautiful Maharani?

OMG, the pink and orange! I want that!

Yodaling and weN84, thank you both soo much for your effort, it is very much appreciated!
And can somebody please teach me how to tag others in posts?

(yes- that's how it seems to go...)

@HoneyLocks - If you want to tag someone just add a @ in front of their handle (spelled just as it is written). It will highlight them.

GAH!!! It’s gorgeous!

Thank you!! Glad I could share it with our tribe of scarfies!!!

Wow! It's fabulous! Love the way the bright green pops against the neutral background.

Yes!!! The black and white 90 with the green pine needles is the one I missed and would still like- I know I was totally thinking exactly this! [emoji173]️

Absolutely stunning! Wow! Thanks for posting. It’s a beauty.

Thank you!

Gah!! So gorgeous!!! Congrats, it looks utterly fabulous on you!

Thank you!!! Still have more on the list!!

OMG, this is so bad (shocking yellow next to teal?) I actually love it: psychedelic, Austin Powers, acid, trippy.
And it seems to tie really nice. But I am unsure if I like it 1K€...

Thank you to @misspink001 for the intel!!! I was able to pick up this beauty- the one and only one so far that the boutique had.

Look at that gorgeous hem!!! The blues remind me of BE And BH.

@yodaling1 can you add this CW to our list?

I’m in love with this design and format. For sure I’m choosing to break my “no multiple CWs of a single scarf design” on SaP!!!

I put so much hope in Sieste in GM, so far this seems to be the best CW, the others just do nothing for me. Good form my wallet, but I wear the big ones the most.
Thank you so much for posting this with tags!

thank you, I just edited my post and it worked. I thought I already tried that before and it did not work, must habe been a spelling error.

12.5 % is too much if these 12.5 % won't show on (in off..ykwIm) the SA's payroll. Otherwise: nope. No. Not for me, thanks. We already had a huge price increase last year, I am not going to play the Chanelgame at Hermès, too. Really, no. nope.*





*that said, I most certainly will buy scarfs from them, albei I'll cut it down to 2 I need to have in my life. The other ones ... well I'll be sorry about that but 12.5 % is simply too much, given the fact that they startet new factory plants, going into mass production for scarfs. Nope. No. Njet. Nein. Nö. Nix.

That's more than € 1.046-- for a CSGM , greedy and shameless IMO.

Please take into account I believe Papertiger was talking about a 10-12.5% increase in the UK, NOT € EU prices. For the few years I’ve bought H I have never experienced a 10% increase per January 1st, it’s between 3-5% at most. For instance this year 90s were increased by I believe €10 and CSGMs by €5 only. (Doesn’t mean they will never have such a huge price increase in € of course, but doubt they will jump from 3 to 12.5% in one go.)
(Also, @papertiger perhaps this discussion should be moved to keep this one on topic? https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/price-increase-update.304162/)

HoneyLocks, I had the same exact reaction to the bright Faubourg Rainbow. I then asked myself how I would feel about it in six months, and that helped me decide not to put it on my wish list. I know myself very well.

Ouch. I got my first scarf in April 2016 and it was £280. In January 2019 going by the posts above they will cost £370 - almost one hundred pounds more!!! I think I will be leaving the stores behind for the billionaires who won't feel the hit and increase my collection of vintages. This is daylight robbery.

Hi all - unfortunately there are no new scarves at my local boutique yet.

Me, too. [emoji22]

12.5% ? [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] Last year’s increase was already huge. That’s over £40 for a 90! If that’s the case, you’ll definitely see much less of me here...

That’s really crazy! [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33]

I have one of those and don't know if I would buy another one.

What I don't like is that the sparkly threads are closer to the surface and can be easily snagged. Once they snag they sort of stick out and there is not much you can do about it. The fabric doesn't drape in a normal way, either -- it's more stiff. It looks cool though.

I have handwashed it and ironed on low setting just fine though.

Threads that are close to the surface so they easily snag are called "floats." Damask, jacquards, etc. All the really pretty stuff//

It is fun to look for vintage/secondhand scarves - there are many online and the authentication provided here is wonderful. So is all the collective wisdom of the participants like you. I have definitely appreciated it.

I read somewhere that many years ago, Hermes scarves were for sale on some airline flights to and from Europe for 100 pounds and popular as a souvenir. Can you imagine that price now?!

Price increases are always really hard to stomach, even though there might be reasonable thinking behind them and not just a desire to make more money. I just hope my spending power beats the price increases...

Ah thank you for introducing correct terminology, I had no idea what it was called.

Yeah I remember the scarves being much cheaper than even what they are now and the souvenir story rings true. I am actually surprised it's not something that, say, Air France offers as part of their onboard shopping offerings, but maybe the price is less of an impulse purchase now.

eBay is always so much fun to shop; I love it when I get a good deal!
