Chanel Price Increase 2013. How will the price increase in 2013 on Chanel classic flap bags affect us? For those who are still doubting or saving money to buy a Chanel bag, there is no better time than today. If you just know how the prices are going to be in 2013, pretty horrified. What are the latest prices in the year end of 2012?
In February 2012, Chanel announced their first price increase of 2012. We expected, just like previous year, that Chanel will increase the prices of their classic bags again in December 2012. But it seems like that Chanel have merci on us and did not change anything on the prices. But that’s does not say that they will not in 2013.
How will the new Chanel bag prices be in 2013?
Planning to go and buy your first Chanel flap jumbo? I have to say, better now than today. I have some news that the next price increase will be +$600 on your classic bags ladies. That’s a lot of money.
What’s the price of jumbo right now? $4,800 + $600 = $5,400 USD. OMG, that’s an increase of 12,5%. The inflation is not even going so fast.
The more expensive the bag, the higher the price increase.
That’s obvious right? It is hard to see the Chanel WOC increase +100%, going from $1,500 to $3,000. Chanel classic bags like, Chanel classic flap medium, jumbo, maxi, the 2.55 reissue bags will have the most impact on the prices. These bags cost above $4,000.
Don’t forget the Tote bags, PST, GST, PTT, Chanel medallion Tote. All will have price increases, but as much as the classic flaps.
Latest Chanel Prices for now
The year 2013 is almost there and still no price increase yet. But do not think Chanel will not in 2013, if you decide to buy your Chanel, today might be right time. It’s Christmas and you deserve it. I have posted the latest Chanel prices here…
Bookmark this site or like it, I will be posting the next price increase as soon as Chanel announce it.

Hi!
I wanted to buy a beige GST with gold chain and here in the US it costs $2900 without tax yet. But the family is going to Paris in August and I was thinking if I should just wait for then? How much is it in euros WITH tax? Like the final price? 🙂 Because if ever it’s cheaper, I’m thinking of buying another bag in Gucci with the leftover money (if it is cheaper in Paris) 🙂 Thanks for all the help!
Hi Sam, I like you, two flies with one hit (Chanel + Gucci). Life can’t be better than that! Chanel GST cost €1,790 EUR and that’s included with tax. VAT return is approximately 12% (read more: http://www.bragmybag.com/how-to-buy-designer-handbags-cheap/). Which Gucci bag are you planning to get?
I was planning to get either the Soho Disco Bag (yes, for my nighttime needs ;-)) or the Boston bag 🙂
(for my nighttime needs ) => lol, you can read minds =D. I
Dear Sam i like your idea too ;p i always do what u want to do 😉 listen if u want to purchase a gucci i advice you to get “a BOSTON” its a bowling try the golden colour/all the bag is golden i get a plenty of comments its wonderfull and its have the shape of the speedy 35 but the boston gucci is pretier 😉 i am going to paris the 3rd of august also (from morocco) just to purchase a pst xl if i found if not i will go to the pst 😉 and with the money left over i dont know if i have to choose the falabella stella Mccartney or the neverfull in textil idel black one or the rocco alexander wang ?? have any suggestions please?
fatma
I suggest either the neverfull if you’re in need of everyday bags (I just LOVE totes!) but if you want something that can transition more from a day to night, the rocco bag will do just the trick! As for the Falabella, not a huge fan of the look – but this is like an everyday tote like the neverfull mixed with the edginess of a Rocco! So the falabella is like an edgier neverfull. 🙂
Hi can you tell me if its cheaper to buy from spain or uk? I’m looking to buy a classic quilted woc or classic flap medium
Spain and UK prices are almost the same. Don’t look for cheaper Chanel, but focus on finding your dream bag.
Lol I know but I’m going to spain this week and was wondering if it was worth checking out. I think I’m going to buy the medium bag first then the woc next. Just can’t decide. Thanks alex
Hi sassy!
You’re site is very helpful. I just got my first chanel. My parents went to london and got me a Beige gst in ghw, actually I just want the pst but every store said they don’t have one. I’m just wondering if u heard of chevron flap and shiva flap? I want to get one of them coz its way more cheaper than the 2.55 and the idea of flap bag is still there. Do u have any comments or price or pictures or description? Thanks!
It’s called the Chanel Surpique Chevron Flap Bag, a rare gem. Check our Chanel forum:

How much is a classic jumbo chanel bag in France including VAT (the price I pay at the store)?
€3,400 euro including VAT. Which one are you going to buy?
Just bought a Chanel Jumbo in black caviar with SHW in Paris’ Galleries Lafayette! I asked her if there were anymore left, and she said no.. but peeking in the stock room, I thought I saw more?? Hm… haha anyways, now I’m worried about getting through customs and its pricey (?) import tax! Not quite sure if it was really worth it getting it in Paris, but what’s done is done! =)
Loool, she probably didn’t want to sell you more Chanels. She want to keep it all by herself. About the import taxes,where are you from?
Haha, yeah! All I wanted to do was compare to see if there were any better looking ones… :p I’m from California! I’ve read so many different things online.. some say the import tax averages from 8-10%, some say it goes to 20%.. so it’s like whhhaaa… import tax is basically wiping out the VAT! x__x
Hi Jasmine, generally you should be paying 10% import duties if you purchased the bag in Paris. But if you carry the bag and tell the custom that it’s been used, you might be able to negotiate some discount. If they might scratch some value off the original price.
For 10%, you still got a bargain. VAT in Europe is 19 – 21% and the prices are cheaper than USA IMO.
Hi,
Im travelling to london in september, from africa, and I plan to buy (my first chanel! Woop woop! Lol)a chanel classic jumbo flap in either lambskin or caviar (having a hard time deciding). I’m pretty excited. Do you have an idea how much they are selling the bag in london now pls? Thanks
It should be retailing around 2,900 pounds, and €3,400 EUR. They usually have more caviar available than lambskin. The caviar is heavier than the lambskin, but stronger in material. Is it an everyday bag?
Yes Its an everyday bag.what do u advise? And is £2900 inclusive of tax? Thanks for your reply. I love this site. Good job!
I would recommend the caviar, because the lambskin is very delicate and feels amazingly chic, but can get scratches very easily. You will be carrying it everywhere if you are using it as an everyday bag. You don’t want to baby it all day long right? Every scratch on your Chanel bag is going to hurt a little (maybe even more, ouch!). =S
Hello there.
I was in London last week. I was after PST however Selfridges told me it is no longer available. GST was 2600 GBP.
what ? the GST is 2600 £ ? its can’t be that expensive i just called 2chanel boutiques in paris last week and they told me it’s 1790 euros
The GST is £1,600
thanks for making me sure 🙂 since i am going this august to purchased it , i was scared when u said its 2600 £
Hi,I wanted to have WOC Classic Caviar skin ghw but it is not available at all in Paris. So my gf decided to get me the latest design of PTT in dark grey/black shw in Paris. It cost €1390 before VAT. I am not too keen about silver as i have already a Jumbo classic in grey shw. But the price is way cheaper than in singapre so got her to buy. She will only be back to this weekend and I’m dying to know how it looks like. Anyone has already own one here and can show me a photo? I couldn’t find image on google.
Hi, my gf is in Paris now. There are no classic caviar WOC ghw. I was disappointed, but my gf got me a PTT instead in the new winter colour grey/black in shw. I am not too keen about silver as I have already a classic grey jumbo in shw but because the price is so much cheaper than in Singapore, I told her to just get it. I have not seen the bag yet and it cost €1,390. I am dying to see how it looks like. Anyone has one to show?
Did the SA checked in other stores too? So all the WOC were sold out? You should also ask her about the PST. We don’t have any images of the PTT in grey/black, it might be the new collection. When will she arrive in Singapore?
Yes, she made the SA call all other boutiques in Paris but there’s no WOC classic caviar ghw. Only camellia rhw. After a day of searching the net for the photos of the latest PST or PTT, I finally found an image of the bag at this FB page “Chanel Lover Thailand”. It’s a great page! She has the photos of all latest designs. It’s fantastic! You should check this page out. My gf is already back and I am scrambling now to her place to get my bag! Couldn’t sleep two nights thinking how it would look like!!
There aren’t any caviar medium/large bags in London. I was looking for black with SHW or GWH (can’t decide between the two). Tried Harrods and Chanel in Knightsbridge. Luckily the prices are still the same… for now.
Was at Harrods yesterday around 5pm and they do Hv maxi in black caviar…
I understand how you feel, the shw or ghw!!?? Seems like both are gorgeous. But you check our comment in the other article: Chanel prices 2012, there are couple of members who found the caviar in London not long ago. SHW is a neutral color, but the GHW is more attention grabbing.
How often does chanel re-stock their bags?
Every week, but they don’t stock everything. Some bags comes slower, like the Chanel classic flap bag. Some boutique has more stock than others.
They did say that they sold out last week and are hoping to get some more in this week but that it is not guaranteed. I don’t live in London, so it looks like I’m going to have to call them daily until one is in stock and have it posted to me (I live in the UK). At least it gives me more time to choose between ghw and shw.
Hi Coco, please also read our other article: http://www.bragmybag.com/chanel-latest-prices-and-product-information-worldwide-2012/. Some people did saw your bag in stock and a lots of them. I can’t remember which comment it was, but it was also in London.
Do you usually wear silver or gold necklace? or other accessories?
I usually wear gold, so ghw is the obvious option but for some reason I’m leaning towards silver but I’m worried I’ll regret it. I already have a GST with ghw…
What do you think about the GST in ghw? I am not sure if the SA can do that, but maybe they can change the chain if you decide to switch. I think it’s possible, you might want to ask. But if you could get the shw and there is no choice, will you be happy with it?
I’ve decided on GHW and managed to track one down. I’m currently waiting for the SA to email me across Chanel’s bank details 🙂
Bank details? Are they going to send it to you?
Yeah, they’re going to post it to me (for an extra cost of course) 🙂
I never heard of that. Which boutique is going to send it and to which city? Very curious =D
hi, may I know please know how much it will cost u to receive this bag? from where to where? Do u know if all chanel boutiques do that? And the price it’s about distance or all distances are same? thanks a lot
Hi, which bag are you referring to?
oh i am refering to the GST or the Pst if i find it of course ?
The prices of the GST and PST you can find here: http://www.bragmybag.com/chanel-latest-prices-and-product-information-worldwide-2012/
The price of the PST increased a little bit, but you can find that in the comment section, also where you can find the PST. They are spotted everywhere, GST is not a problem for you to get at all.
Oh really, so the pst is not discontinued? i am more interested in the Pst, do u know where i can find it i am going in august to paris for a weekend just to get it? How much the price has increased for the pst, how much does it cost now??? thaaaaaank uuuuuuu ;))))
I walked into the boutique on Bond Street and they explained to me that the bag was not available and they do not do waiting lists. They gave me a card with all London Chanel boutiques telephone numbers on it and asked me to call around to see if any were in stock and explained I could have one posted. The extra cost was £20 (which is nothing considering how much the bag costs) and it’s all insured etc. incase it goes missing/gets damaged). My bag is being posted from London to Bristol (my home).
I don’t think it’s that uncommon as when I bought my first Chanel bag in New York, they offered to drop it off at my hotel to save me carrying it around all day (and they did drop it off).
Omg, never heard about this. Great service, but it also make me nervous to have it send by post. 20 pounds is really cheap including the insurance of such an expensive bag.
I was also very curious if they send the bag to another country. But I don’t think they do this.
Forgot to add that my particular bag is coming from the Brompton Road Chanel boutique in London as they were the only boutique that had the bag I wanted in stock.
I was really nervous but it arrived safely today 🙂
That’s great news, I would be nervous too. congratulations with your new bag.
How much do chanel earrings cost? Prices for both large and medium CC logo ones please.. I’m planning on getting a pair for my birthday 🙂
I have seen them as low as €150 and as high as €300. And you need to be lucky too, especially in cities like Paris they only have left overs if you are not quick enough.
How much in the US? Price conversion doesn’t work cause its more expensive here I think
Around $260 for the small ones and $460 for the larger ones.
PST no longer available ? My bro will be in Paris & Barcelona in July. And, may i know the price for CC Chanel earrings silver ?
Hi Joyce, PST was discontinued for a while, as well as the mini flap, but they have returned. One of our member just purchased a PST in US. I haven’t heard it in Europe yet.
I bought mine CC Chanel earring for $150, price really range from $100 to $300.
Hi, My gf going to Paris tomorrow and I am asking her to get me a WOC, black caviar skin with gold chain. Do you know how much it cost after VAT and could she get it easily as gold chains WOC are rare to come by?
Which Chanel WOC are you going to buy? Halfmoon…?
Generally they cost around €1,100 to €1,500.
So the tax-refund will range from: €132 to €180.
It hard to say what you can find in a Chanel boutique, that’s what makes it all exciting and disappointing. I hard a lot of people that they can’t find the caviar in Europe, while others have more luck and find it everywhere. It has to do with the supply the demand, they go very fast.
Thank you Sassy for your quick reply. I would like to get the black caviar skin in classic design. In Singapore at The BagsShop they want to sell their import for S$3950. Have you heard of this shop and could I trust if it is original? 🙂
Hi, I have never heard of this shop, can’t find it on the internet either. But is it the Chanel classic medium flap bag and are they selling it brand-new?
Just got a classic jumbo double flap caviar black SHW in london @ £2975 and a Barbie pink jumbo classic double flap in lamb skin with Rose gold HW @ £2975!
I supposed its £21 cheaper than before….?
Hi Michele,
May ask in which store in London you got the pink bag?
Thanks

Hi, I bought my first classic flap bag, jumbo, gold trim yesterday! Very happy with my purchase, pricey $5,593 in Canada
hiiii!! congratulation with your new bag. I love the gold trim color.
OMG, congratulation, the caviar is sold out everwhere, which Chanel boutique did you went?
Harrods….:-)
Can I ask for the price of new Chanel classic
Medium beige caviar skin ?
Thanks
The Chanel classic flap bag in beige caviar is priced at €3,100 EUR, you want the price in euro right?
Yes, thanks for your replied:))
Yes,which skin of Chanel bags is better to use between lamp skin and calfskin ?
Many thx:)
I love lambskin, butterly soft and chic. Calfskin are a bit harder, more durable. The question should be, which one do you prefer, are going you going for the experience? Lambskin is the best choice or are you going for the durability, calfskin. Which handbag are you looking for btw?
Is GST sold in Barcelona and madrid? How much are they charging?
Hi Celeste, Europe price: €1,790 EUR + VAT.
Are you in Spain?
I’m going in aug and I actually would like to know where I can buy the GST. Barcelona or madrid?
They are available in Barcelona and Madrid, but I do not know if they have your style in stock. But I think they have. When are u going to Barcelona?
Hi,
Do you have a price list with the bag pictures? I can’t decide whether to get the classic lampskin $4200 or clutch with strap $2600. This is my 1st Chanel. I know there is a clutch for $1900. Do you happen to know which one. Do you have a picture?
Thank you!

Hi,
I just bought my 1st Chanel : ) So in love. I got the small classic caviar with gold chain. I am having second thoughts about the size and I am thinking about buying the M/L instead but it is sold out in the US! Does anyone know where I can find it? I have a feeling by the time the stores get restocked there will be a price increase!
I live in Boston and I bought the small classic in Bloomingdale’s.
Also, does anyone know if I can authenticate a Chanel bag online? My sisters bough classic lambskin in Europe from a second hand store but she is not sure if it is authentic.
Thanks.
Hi Tamar, you can post your sis’s bag in our forum – Chanel section! And also provide information about the price and where she bought it.
p.s. When did you bought the small classic flap bag? I would love to see it, can you post it in the forum?
Hi,
How do I post pictures? I don’t see that option?
Thanks.
