My SA just emailed me that there will be a price increase as of January 13th. Don't know if this date just applies to just the USA or is worldwide. Also, she didn't mention the amount of the price increase, just the effective date.

My SA emailed me again stating that the price increase will be approximately 6% applied to all merchandise.

Ladies, if you really want an H item, the time to get it is now!

Also, I am in the USA, so I don't know if this is worldwide.

Ugh, I'm with you on dreading the burn of GM increases. :sweatdrop:

Although I do still buy H new from the boutique year after year, I spend less and less there each year with these price increases, even though my income has risen since I first discovered H. It was just so much easier for me to justify spending $$ there when I could get quite a number of beautiful pieces-- now that I can only get a few pieces for the same money, I'm vastly more inclined to get my jollies with vintage pieces. But I realize I'm not exactly H's target customer-- I'm not even a drop in their revenue bucket-- more like a molecule in a drop in the bucket-- and I have no doubt they'll eventually price me out of the boutiques completely. Good thing I have good luck hunting older pieces-- although maybe not as much luck as you, Chestnutty! :amuse:

No, dear, I'm not lucky. I stalk the market every day, patiently, until what I look for show up.

Btw, I just calculated the new price for mousseline GM after the increase, pre sales tax, and my heart died a little inside.

I have something on hold for me at a store in HK and was informed by my SA yesterday that prices go up starting Jan 8 so I need to pay and pick up before that date to avoid the price increase.

We all knew this would happen....still sad nonetheless!

I've been pretty lucky lately, so I can't complain....and I really need to visit ban island and enjoy what I have!!!!

I would like one last thing to show up before the increase...oops did I say that out loud?!
