I believe it was May 2024. There was a mad scramble to put orders through in the days leading up to it. Some were able but many were told new pricing applied immediately.
I just placed an order at the boutique yesterday and they told me the last US price increase was May 2024. I asked because I was trying to figure out if I should wait any longer for a piece I’ve wanted forever. It’s funny but the SA quoted the Purse Forum as their source for the possibility of the next increase! (As an aside, how much more expensive do you think they will really make Alhambra pieces? I understand the price of gold is increasing but wow, these pieces are getting expensive!)
 
Do you know when was the last price increase for the US ? I have a piece I just need to buy, but we are moving to a state with lower tax within 3 months which would save us couple hundred dollars, but NOT if it will increase within those 3 month timeframe.... I'm quite nervous 😓 😟
For sure (I ordered an item the last day before the price increase…) it was in the world on 31.05.24. But some country get more price increase as Japan also got an increase in May and another one not so far from now (yen devaluation). I would stick to the thread of price increase on TPF It was very reliable last time (SA cannot tell you 😔)

There seem to be murmurings about May increase - just assumption based on 2024? Anyone know more?
I've heard about it hitting Asia in May but not sure about US though. I feel like price increase for the US always happen at different times than other countries. The gold price certainly surged a lot this year so wouldn't be surprised if it happens, regardless of the tariffs.

Europe but SA said it’s the annual May increase. They raised worldwide last year then.
I heard other people say that an increase was coming too and gold has spiked…
Thanks for the reply. Do you know by chance when in may it could be for Europe ? Am about ready to buy one piece so could pull the trigger if needed before may

Does anyone know by how much the price increase would be? I am eyeing a piece (10motif guilloche) but cant decide whether to go with it or the baignoire bangle, so it would help to know by how much the price increase would be. I remember that last year’s price increase wasn’t too high.
The baignoire watch is going up almost 2k in the US.
