I grabbed 2 items 1 day before 4/25 PI . I am at US location. (+price increase amount)
RG SW carnelian earrings(+80)
WG 5M V guilloche bracelet (+600)
Saving $680 USD

If I include 3 items that I ordered ~2mo before PI which are price locked in:
RG V hammered earrings (+550)
RG 5M V hammered bracelet (+650)
WG V guilloche earrings (+450)

total saving $2330 USD + tax 😳
 
VA yg hammered earrings on order $4400 (now $4950)

Last week or so bought:

VA yg onyx bracelet $4600 (now $4800)
VA yg diamond pave pendant $8200 (now $8450)
VA blue agate pendant $3250 now ($3350)
VA blue agate bracelet $5250 (now $5550)

That's $1400 savings (not including tax). (But sadly I am debating returning the BA due to the BA fading thread. :sad: )
 
Just before the PI I got my WG perlee clover bracelet so ended up saving 1000$ on it.
But, what blew me away was in the last one year I added 4 hammered MTO pieces and the savings on those 4 pieces together was $5700 before taxes which means, the PI on these 4 hammered pieces varied anywhere between 12% all the way to 25%😳😳 Yes, yes, I did my math and checked it twice 😂

I know the price of gold has gone up but I feel the PI on MTO pieces was a little too intense 😅
