Just clarification - this only happens if the items are received in store. 30% is required to lock in old price for certain pieces and it may not apply for all VCA lines. For e.g. in my store, SA confirmed that Guilloche and Perlee (most), Lucky - they arent accepting deposits at all.I was told to settle everything with 100% deposit to lock in the old price... Price increase will take effect on 13 Oct with the estimate ~5.23%. I am based in Asia, if this helps

I went into store today expecting to be put on a waitlist for the YG perlee clover however was surprised to be informed it would only be a 2 week wait for a small. A 30% deposit also secured me the current price. Was a good day! Located in Melbourne
Has anyone had actual confirmation from a US SA that the US is indeed having a price increase? According to the Cartier price increase thread, a few sources are stating the US is NOT having a price increase this time around although many other countries are so now I’m curious if VCA in the US is even included this time.
In Japan price increase reflects from Oct 18 and alhambra collection will go up by 8%
My SA told me there is a 5% increase on the 13th. I am in the US. I have worked with her for over a year multiple times and contacted her to purchase something specifically.
Never heard from my SA! Ooh I’d be so happy if the price increase didn’t effect US.
Edit: just saw the previous response. Oh well… it was bound to happen, I guess
I've heard from 2 SAs from the US that yeah, the price increase will be happening on the 13th.
I was told today (US) that prices are going up on Thursday.
I was also told today (US) that prices are going up for VCA this thursday and Cartier next week.
I was able to order a sweet Alhambra bracelet at the Yorkdale store in Toronto today, can confirm that the SA said there will be a price increase on the 13th. 100% deposit was required!
Echoing others, I was also told by my SA (in the US) that there will be a 5% increase to all items.
Interestingly, my SA at Cartier (who is the SM) mentioned that the Cartier price increase was across select items but wouldn’t go into more detail. Seems like we will know more in the next couple of days.

Interesting that some locations require 100% vs 30% deposit. My SA in Singapore informed me it’s a 5-8% increase on the 13th and requires 30% deposit for items not in stock.
Yes, my SA in Sg told me to lock in the current price by making a 30% deposit. My SA in Japan told me deposit of 100% and if I don't come pick it up within a month, it will be passed on. I didn't ask about the refund as I was turned off anyways.
One of my SAs texted me to tell me there would be a price increase. It was nice of her.
That is a terrible policy for VCA Japan. I feel that as a paying customer especially with 100% deposit they should hold on to the item for you until you are ready to pick it up. It’s not as if it costs them money to store these small size items.
