They've adjusted their prices. L01 went up around £400 in the UK to make it pretty much even with the L17.

Not everywhere else has adjusted the prices yet.

No idea but some sites already have started their sales based on EU locations.

For example if you're in DK I know that on sites like ln-cc and farfetch there are 40-50% discounts already. By the time the sale opens up in the UK the good **** will be gone

So might be worth browsing as if you're shipping to DK, and getting someone to proxy for you.


To whoever asked about the sizing on nut wyatts (hairy wyatts) on the official website and their recommendation to size down half - this is correct and I still believe it's correct for FW16 because the shaft size was not made skinnier (or not that I've seen in person anyway).

Tweed blazer, red wool western shirt and a Tom Ford denim jacket (only because the SL one with the corduroy collar was terrible). But none of those things are really necessary, so will depend on the discount if any.

Was told a couple days ago that Vacarello items will start droppig in store from January. This will be the SS17 collection proper (as opposed to the cruise stuff that we're seeing now). Apparently this will be done so that people keep buying stuff thinking it's Hedi's team or whatever and then will be told well actually that was AV all along somehow easing the transition.

Side note: Some fool tried to scam me on Grailed. Sold a pair of santiags that were too small for me. He recieves them and leaves feedback sayinog 5/5 item shipped and described etc. Two weeks later he disputes on PayPal saying they never arrived. So I sent him and PayPal the FedEx confirmation of delivery. Then he says 'item not as described'. PayPal found in his favour. He ships the 'original' package back to me, but it was 2.88 kgs less than the package I sent him. So I called the cops and PayPal to preempt them. Received the item today, and he shipped back the most beat pair of pathetic Asos (probably) boots I've ever seen. What kind of moron thinks I would just concede? Plus my PayPal email is my work email, so he ought to've known that I know how to handle these things.

Yes, I spoke to PayPal today. Once they recieve the police report they should end the dispute in my favour. I'm lucky that I have the recorded weight of the package I sent otherwise it would've just been my word against his or whatever.

It's a shame Grailed has degnerated so much. Seems to me it's just too many young kids desparate to get their hands on some SL for cheap. That said, I've sold a number of things on there and this is the first real problem I've encountered.

Ive taken to filming myself packing everything as apparently I've heard they don't accept photos as they can be photoshopped. Ridiculous but better safe than sorry. I always keep all receipts in a folder too and they have the weight on.
