I just ordered a Fontélie. The duty and taxes were shocking, too — more than a round trip coach ticket to Paris.Absolutely if that’s an option! Duties are over €1k and the shipping is an additional €1k+![]()

What color are you getting?Yes they do! I’m actually in the process of ordering a lizard Diane, the taxes/shipping fees are high.
Makes sense to place order online then travel to collect in person. Plus if you travel you can get tax refund so thats an added bonus.Absolutely if that’s an option! Duties are over €1k and the shipping is an additional €1k+![]()
I’m guessing there will be a lower cost for the UK, but insurance counts for quite a bit in the shipping cost, and post brexit duties would apply though not sure how much. Try putting a bag in the basket to see what they propose for shipping etc.Are these rates shipping and duties to U.S.? I wonder if it won’t be as expensive if it will be shipped to U.K.?
I agree. That’s another JD bagMakes sense to place order online then travel to collect in person. Plus if you travel you can get tax refund so thats an added bonus.
If I’m able to plan a trip to Paris this year, the matte black(Peter Halley collection). My second choice is grey lizard.What color are you getting?
This is what I’m planning to do, not to avoid shipping fees + duties coz I live in the EU, but to hopefully chat with an artisan how my bag was madeMakes sense to place order online then travel to collect in person. Plus if you travel you can get tax refund so thats an added bonus.
Diane L20 isn’t heavy in my opinion. Not sure about other models/sizesWhat is the weight of these bags like? I've seen a couple of people ask this but no answers. This company is stalking me all round Instagram and I love both the Diane and the Saint Clair models, but the Diane especially looks quite hefty.
What color? So excited for you!!I just ordered a Fontélie. The duty and taxes were shocking, too — more than a round trip coach ticket to Paris.
I have the 26, I don’t find it heavy, I love it!What is the weight of these bags like? I've seen a couple of people ask this but no answers. This company is stalking me all round Instagram and I love both the Diane and the Saint Clair models, but the Diane especially looks quite hefty.
ReasonableIm not sure if the pink is a little higher in price because of the special hardware tone, but it may be between 9800€ to 11000€ give or take it's soooo well priced compared to other brands that make lizard pieces
