Resellers getting Chanel items first and selling for premium

Even the classics are marked up. I don’t get it. They’re not that hard to find.
Certain colors seem to be very limited and reserve lists full before launch date. I also think availability is different based on country. There’s a good amount of stock in US but I see other tPFers in other countries state that getting a medium black caviar classic isn’t as easy.

Purchase limits have also driven people to resellers because they might want more than one bag per season. Resellers have abundant opportunities to overcharge unfortunately.

I agree with this. I think these limits are giving resellers more opportunities than ever before. They will be able to get multiples with recruited help of multiple accounts and the rest of us will be driven to use resellers if we want more than one item bc we are confined to the limits.
 
saw that post ! Lol that reseller must be out of her mind .
someone needs to comment that iridescent green is coming back and available at retail soon. I bet they’re all offloading now before it becomes readily available again!
April fools joke right?
There must be a memo to sell 18s emerald jumbos. I also saw on another IG account that she is unloading her jumbo. Slightly cheaper than the one above. This reseller is ONLY asking $20.5K. What a deal lol.

I told my SA that the limits hurt loyal customers MUCH more than resellers. I’m sure it’s cutting out the small time resellers but the established ones obviously (based on stock listed on their IG site) are not affected.
 
I took a screenshot but I’m not sure if I should rat her out. Especially since I have no sales history in the store. I asked for the bag multiple times since January. She originally listed it for 7200 but sold it for 6200. Way overpriced.

It’s the Troy saks boutique if anyone else would rather do it lol.
That’s the boutique I use as the stock is better. I greatly prefer Neimans SA though.

You’re right. I just reached out to my SA about the gold mini and it’s not even coming to US lol :-s

They think now is the last chance to cash in big time before knowledge about it returning spreads. Part of me wants to make a PSA "IRI GREEN & PINK ARE RETURNING DON'T BUY FROM RESELLERS - UNICORN BAGS ARE A MYTH" but then I also can't be bothered...
