@rainypop not as far as I can see. For example, the magic alhambra 16 motif WG is £21,900 vs US $26,300, which is roughly £18,700. Not sure what the sales tax would be, but fairly sure less than £3,000! I'd hop on a flight but know I'd be the one to get stung for import duties if I tried!
The price in euros is almost identical to GBP.

Jules, pre-VAT price will be £18,250 (for non EU residents purchasing in UK), so still some savings albeit not much. So not worth the hassle [emoji30]

I think every market is deserving to equalized pricing so the different regions can benefit. And if we happen to be travelling and want a special memento, then we can still purchase with that intent in mind.
 
Hadassa, I meant for us UK buyers. Paying £3k over the pre tax US price is a little hard to stomach. I was saying to rainypop that it wasn't worth buying in the UK/Eurozone if coming from the States.
Jules, if you are doing non-EU travel, can you benefit from tax free option?

Is your concern on return to the UK (customs duties) ?
 
Hadassa, I don't seem able to persuade DH to book holidays based on overseas VCA locations!:P I clearly need to work on my powers of hypnosis as this face & body clearly ain't doing it!!
I'd just like to be able to shop in my hometown with a regular store and not feel like I'm being ripped off IYSWIM?

I understand totally what you mean. Chasing a good/better price (knowing it is available) just takes the fun out of shopping.

I certainly don't have that power of persuasion - I purchase everything for myself. Kudos to those ladies with wonderful DHs who indulge their every passion.

Thank you for the info [emoji6]
 
Would anyone have any additional information on a projected price increase for April 25 in the United States? I have been debating between an Alhambra and perlee bracelet. I had hoped to wait until this summer to purchase the bracelet as I am currently on ban island after making a major purchase at an H boutique. If it’s expected to happen I plan to visit the boutique sooner than later! Thank you.

1% cross the board except frivoles
 
Hi can you confirm your Australian SA said 2-3%? As I really can’t afford to buy NOW but my SA in Sydney told me there would be a price increase. I didn’t realise it was so little..... if it’s 3% then I can wait.... Thankyou so much in advance

That’s exactly what I said, so I have decided to wait rather than scrambling to buy now. But then who knows exactly how VCA minds work?! Will ask again next week when I go there...
