Well, they weren't kidding that the average price increase would be around 8.6%. In just 6 months time, there have been 2 price increases. It feels like Chanel all over again.

Thank you for doing those examples, boy they weren’t kidding regards price increase!!!!
Just crazy looking at those numbers!!!! We all know prices have increased twice in the last 6 months, but when you literally look at the numbers as you have in your examples to me it’s quite sickening. And I’m sure they’ll probably have another before the year end.
But the sad reality is it won’t stop me and most people from buying, I’ll just end up paying more…..sigh.
Now they’re the same price as US prices. The guilloche pendant in the US before tax is $3700. 5050 CAD is equivalent to 3768 USD. Hopefully this means the US won’t get an increase
They didn’t even have to raise the prices in the US to cause me to stress buy. Just the threat of it happening was enough. LOL.
Same here!
I was at the store yesterday and got a watch.
I also placed a deposit on a hammered piece to order and the SA said that they can’t guarantee the price if it goes up on this piece. Even if I paid in full… grrrr
Ok. I kinda think you need a new SA. You just bought a freakin watch! I’d be PIST.
I was told that gold popular pieces such as hammered and guilloché are the exception. I am asking my other SA in France.
I was able to order 10 motif guilloche necklace and secure pre-increase price with 100% deposit (Canada)
Nice! I haven't seen a 10 motif guilloche for the longest time. Glad you're able to secure a piece at pre-increase price.
Actually I just spoke to my SA. She confirmed with me.
Guilloché is not on the waitlist anymore. You can order and it get the price locked in. Not the 20 YG Hammered. They don’t have as many or have too much demand and it takes longer.
Now I was super lucky and found one YG hammered bracelet in store not long ago. Wish it were like that for everything!
