Has anyone tried ordering from overseas before? I wrote an email asking about prices and they asked if I was going to a store or having it shipped to my country. Still waiting for a response from them after I replied that I would prefer the latter. I'm curious to know if any Delvaux fans here have done it?

I used to order from one of the stores in Belgium, the transactions were smooth and even with the duty and shipping, I still saved quite a bit compare to US. retail.

Sadly last year I was told since my shipping destination is the US, I will be charged the same price as US retail. So once I pay the shipping and duty, it's actually more expensive than US retail. However, if I buy and pick it up in person (or have a friend pick it up for me) at the boutique, then I pay EU price, which is significantly less. I'm not sure what prompted the price adjustment; perhaps it's the high demand for their goods.

Now I shop with the London boutique. It's the same price whether I buy in person in London, or I ship it back home (there's still duty of course, but no difference in price for the goods). I really enjoyed working with the Brussels store but sadly it's more expensive buying from them unless I buy in person.

Is the London price still cheaper than US? I have found that Barneys doesn't always carry all the European styles and/or they sell out fast. So buying in the US isn't always a great option.

Tempete MM is 3400 GBP I believe, which is roughly $4850 USD. It's $5700 USD at Barneys. But you do need to factor in duty. I don't mind bc like you, I find the inventory here pretty limited. Hope this helps :)

This is the first bag Delvaux designed for the World Fair - it does not have a shoulder strap, and is bigger than the GM. Here's a side by side comparison of the Black Edition next to the GM. $11,200

Pls pm for sa info if there is any interest on this bag [emoji16].
