hey, so does anyone know how much cheaper lv is in paris? one of my friends is a flight attendant and is going sometime in january. i was thinking about having him buy something for me. so how much different are the prices? is it worth it?
go to vuitton.com, the French website, not American, and you can see the prices in Euros there. naturally the prices in France would be significantly lower, because it's a French brand anyway
does anyone have an online euro/ dollar conversion chart? if i wanted say an epi passy it looks like it's 970 euros. how much is that in us dollars and what amount of vat do you get back?

Your friend may not have time to do the work needed for the VAT refund! The process itself isn't rocket science, but as an operating crew member, he may not have the time to do it at the airport when he leaves Paris.
my husband is a tech crew and will flying to Paris in Jan as well, and i will be giving him a list of stuff to buy. but he did warn me that he won't have the time to do the tax rebate at the airport . i am also wondering if there is any other way to get the tax rebate by mail or something?
The passy you were looking at for 970 euro is the GM. Before the rebate it would be around 1280 USD around the same price for the regular smaller passy on elux
The regular passy is 830 euro which is around 1090 USD before rebate, that's $150 cheaper than if you were to buy here in the US. If your friend can get the rebate, it goes down to 960 USD = $280 cheaper!
