Also, my wife’s SA where we live suddenly can’t just get what she wants anymore but has to put her on a ‘waitlist’ for certain models. Apparently they recently changed CEO and decided to increase the prices (dramatically) and have less availability to create an artificial ‘scarcity’. In Paris they literally told us “it’s better for you when you exit our store that you don’t see 15 other people walking with the same bag as you…”

Has Hermes and Rolex strategy written all over it.

Did you guys stop in just one Chanel location? My wife and I are leaving for Paris in 4 days and she has her hopes of getting one. She's picked out like 4 others in case the 1 isnt available. According to the web there are like 16 locations in Paris
