I so agree that they are limiting production to ensure the market isn’t over saturated. It’s going to make one really have to plan to acquire pieces.
Excellent point. And I do think demand is higher than say five years ago. So even if supply stayed the same, with higher demand getting any piece would be harder. Combine that with the supply of the raw materials being lower than five years ago the availability of finished pieces is reduced. I’m willing to wait. And I also would rather they not compromise the quality of the materials and workmanship.

Yes and the truly high end brands aren’t ramping up to met current production either.
Not enough jewelers to produce the requested pieces? Takes a long time to train and qualified people.

I asked my SA when I made the 30% deposit on 26 Sep. She told me no news on price increase. But VCA will honour the existing price even if there is a price increase between now till middle Oct (when I plan to go collect the piece)
