Serious Chanel Price Increase Coming Soon

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

chanelreissue227

Yikes... Looks like we're facing another Chanel price increase.  This one is supposed to be pretty serious.  Rumor has it that we're talking up to a 20% hike!  Apparently, Chanel is worried that they are becoming a "main street" brand "like Louis Vuitton".  When they want go the more exclusive Hermes route.  From Madison Ave Spy:

Consider this: In 2008, a 227 Reissue was $2850. Today the same bag costs $3600 and could jump to $4100 if current indications are correct. That's an approximate 40% increase in just two years. There's nothing Main Street about that type of price shift. As a matter of fact it's not even Wall Street reality.

Yeah, all I can say is that you can still get that same Reissue (like the one pictured above) at closer to the 2008 pricing here at Fashionphile!  Always check Fashionphile first for authentic, pre-owned Chanel handbags for hundreds less than retail!

Well, it's targeted for August 1.  So we'll have to see.  Maybe Fashionphile needs to have one of it's famous "Price Increase Sales"!  You know the ones- where your favorite brand increases its prices- so Fashionphile gives you a break in time to stock up :)

Louis Vuitton Price Cuts in Japan

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Louis Vuitton Price Decrease

Yep... you read that right.  Price decrease!  And a full 7% price cut at that!!!

As of today- November 29... if you're living in or traveling in Japan, you can pick up most Louis Vuitton things- bags, watches, shoes and RTW at any of the 56 Japanese stores at the new decreased prices.

Louis Vuitton has historically adjusted prices in response to the fluctuation of the markets.  We have seen that in the US... when the value of the dollar against the pound, euro and yen has been weak- we see the resulting price increase.

The yen is currently particularly strong against the euro- and LVMH says that this price reduction reflects that discrepancy.

Why Louis Vuitton doesn’t Di$count…

Cristiano Ronaldo shopping louis Vuitton
(I love a man who knows how to shop!  This is Cristiano Ronaldo, getting it done!)

I thought this was an interesting quote from an interesting article,  "The Economics of Discounting":

"Discounting smacks of desperation," says Liz Gunnison. "That's why brands like Louis Vuitton and Apple don't do it."

Again, we can all say what we will about Louis Vuitton's price increase policy- and about their not discounting- but who is not only weathering this economic storm- but thriving as if it doesn't exist?

They'll continue to raise prices as the dollar drops- and we'll just keep paying.  It's just what we do :)

Price Increase Sale :(

Monday, August 4th, 2008

As we've done now for the last three (I believe) Louis Vuitton price increases, we'll be having a Price Increase sale at FASHIONPHILE when LV raises it's prices this month.

We've heard conflicting info on the exact date: August 12, 17 and 19... but keep your eye out for my blog.  When the prices go up-  ours will go down (for a week, anyway!)

Another Price Increase Sale…

Still. We don't like it any more than you do. So we're having another one of our "Price Increase" sales. Any purchase made on our www.fashionphile.com site OR our weekly auctions for one week will get standard shipping absolutely free***!
