I just saw it now too! On the bags, a lot of them had a $200 price increase for us in Australia which is a huge jump!!
its so hard to keep up with these increases! Glad you managed to get some goodies before the price hike. And I’m so thankful other tfp members had the early intel so a lot of us could grab something that we were eyeing and just needing a nudge to get over the line. I know for myself it was handy to know because I went in over the weekend to check out some things (appointment only basis) and got myself an early birthday treat! Will do a reveal later and share!
Oooh I’m excited to see what you got!
 
That's the word on the Chanel forum. I've been waiting on my mini for over a year, the stay at home didn't really impact it since they don't have stock anyway. (similar to LV) I am getting tired of this BS though. I'm ready to say forget it. I'm not paying $4k for a mini. It's not THAT amazing.
You’re right, I’m tired of this BS also. But truth is, no one is really deterred by these price increases. We complain, but We still buy all this crap. LV or Chanel, I still want what I want and will buy What I want despite the unreasonable increases. Then I justify it by saying, “if I don’t buy it right now, it will just be more expensive next year...so dammed if I do, dammed if I don’t”
 
This price increase during a pandemic got me shook. I can’t believe the audacity. I’m going to take a seat and not buy a Louis for a while.
Beyond annoyed - especially how everything I was eyeing was “call for availability” and suddenly back in stock after the price increase - Unbelievable!!!
Happened to me as well. I am pissed. Will take some time to get over it and find pleasure in the pretty things again.
But hey .... over in the Chanel Forum they are discussing the 17% (!!!) increase on 11th May .... wtf?! I was planning to buy my first Chanel this year in fall... ah- no thanks! There are other fashion houses which don't raise prices ridiculously whenever they want to or at least have a stable increasing schedule .........

OMG. Fer real? NOT available at the lower price. AVAILABLE at the higher price. Right. Let me go wipe the "SUCKER" stamped on my forehead off. The bag I was eyeing went up $140. Yah...NOT.

I agree, a large portion of people won’t care but many will, especially with the financial impact. Many will just be forced out of the opportunity and many will also realize for them the cost is greater than the benefit. For me personally, I won’t buy a mini for 4K. It already seemed ridiculous to me at 3500. What it means is that I don’t love it that much and that’s okay, others still love it at that price, nothing wrong with that. I want to buy what I love and buy it when I want to buy it, not when I’m allowed to or forced to.
 
But the biggest BS of all: the PA in mono is now more expensive than the PA in DA. In Canada the PA mono is now 825$ and the PA DA is 745$. Just before the Christmas increase, they were both 685$, then after Christmas they were 705$. This to me seems like a reasonable increase. But now, 825$ and 745$... that’s a crazy hike and worse: different prices for mono vs other canvas? Will we be seeing more of this?

So Strange, in Germany PA in mono is still 410 €, no change. Whereas PA in DA increased to 435 €. I dont get the increase for DA, especially when in some countries the price relation seem to be reverse.
