Please share your beat the price increase purchases

Finally took the plunge on the WG signature on the last day pre-increase and I am just so thankful and happy with it ☺️!

Wish I could’ve also picked up a blue agate but I feel like I must pace myself...

I put deposit down for 4 pieces that I was going to get this year, but my totally unexpected big Hermes purchases this month derailed my plan. Luckily my SA is willing to take a deposit so I can lock in the current price and I have the next few months to finalize my purchase. Grey MOP & Pave diamond bracelet, Cosmo BTF ring, Frivole BTF ring, and Pont des Amoureux watch, and maybe one more bracelet if my SA can locate it for me tomorrow.

Wow that’s great! I did ask if I could put down a deposit to lock in the price but the SA told me they are strict on their deposit policy, and this is only allowed for pieces that are OOS or need to be ordered in. Is that your experience too?

Ooh. Which 5 motif did you get? I bet you must be waiting excitedly!

Congrats on your new pieces. Love how the YG MOP necklace sits on you. Very pretty!

Great idea!!! I will be saving mine for the holidays and our anniversary in Dec., but I decided to knock off the two most expensive items on my realistic wish list, the wg onyx pave VA bracelet, and yg pave VA earrings. The price increase won't be too bad on most of my other items. I ordered them today, but I'll do photos when I actually open them in Dec!

Can't wait to see the photos!!

Wait! You mean we have to wait all the way until Dec??!!

Lol!

I got (what was sold to me as the last piece) YG MOP 5 motif. I liked the onyx too and both my friend and SA said it suited me more but I ended up choosing what made me look fairer and more ladylike LOL

Thanks! But that's my friend haha I got the onyx pendant

My new SA told me no deposit is allowed for even OOS items.

Thanks for sharing! I wasn’t sure why some PFers could put deposits down for items — happy that those who can are able to of course! Just wondered if it was a different policy depending on store/country.

I think it depends on the countries, items and even your history with VCA or SA.

Magic long pend, sweet mop necklace and mini frivole bracelet

First VCA purchases! Guilloche earrings and YG MOP VA pendant. If I were to choose a 3rd to beat the price increase, what should it be? No rings, bracelets.

So glad to hear you love it! I tried to make myself get the yg onyx 5 motif (which I also love), but the wg and pave with onyx is just exceptional!
