^Are you sure re: UK? I don't think UK has had any increase and I shop at two stores who have both advised me the UK is the only place that has not had an increase.

One SM and one SA in two places advised me this and normally I get an email from another SA regarding an increase and again I haven't received anything?

I'll take two said:
The UK and Europe had a rise of 6% on the 1st April .
US is normally one month after but not sure whether that will definitely be the case again.

I know for certain that FRANCE had a 10% price increase on April 1st. It was not, however announced but a day or 2 ahead of time.

I can't understand this as I had to finalise the purchase of a few pieces before the 1st April otherwise I was told the price would be 6 % more . I have since been quoted for another item which does seem to have gone up by that amount. I would be very disappointed if my SM has blatantly lied to me in person and by email.
I might just ring one of the other London stoes to check this out . :D

I have spoken to the SM and he has now back tracked a little and said that Europe did go up 6% but Uk was variable ?
Not really sure what to think now but as I was able to complete my purchases at the prices going back to August last year when I paid my deposit I suppose I am still happy.
My DH thinks that he has been good as he allowed us to add on a couple of pieces at the old prices and was maybe under pressure to have these items finalised as the rise last September was huge.
Will be interested to see whether the price info is correct or not .
These are a some of my new items,will try and do better shots later

^congrats on the VCA. I would be very surprised if there has been any increase, because I have been assured by so many various people who work for VCA. Maybe if you had a fair amount on hold with a deposit they were pushing the sale?

I have known one of my stores getting it wrong before... and often sales managers are pushed for time and might of thought UK was also having an increase when it was not in fact. I have experienced fibs/incompetance from a SM before so im not surprised, I find the SA's better in fact.

Yes I think it was more to do with pressurising me to complete my sales order which I had held off until they finally agreed to make a special order for me. He does however still insist there has been some increases. I am not going to push the issue as the pieces I bought were at the aug price last year which actually seems like a bargain,which of course it isn't LOL
