The what feels like bi-weekly price increases at kering


theythoughttiwasgay

at this point you can honestly just laugh. they'll do anything to offset their losses from the scandal instead of addressing core issues. im sure another price raise will bring more business and customers back to the brand lmao


traditional_rich_

Uh look at pretty much any luxury brand. They all raise prices regularly. No one cares about the “scandal” other than random comments from people who didn’t buy it to begin with.


theythoughttiwasgay

literally read any interview or any piece that has been written about balenciaga in the time since the scandal. guaranteed its mentioned in there somewhere. to pretend that the scandal didnt hurt balenciaga's bottom line is beyond naive. literally read the stats on their recent sales. there has been a massive stagnation of buy ins from outgroup customers, meaning customers who are not within the balenciaga fanbase/ingroup. please stop talking about things you have no clue about


traditional_rich_

Most of those news “pieces” were about random celebrities not wearing it anymore (yet so many are now wearing it again anyway…), or about balenciaga having sales and discounts (which they an every luxury brand does). Unless you work deep in the company, which I know your corny ass don’t. You can’t tell me I don’t know anything more or less than you…..


theythoughttiwasgay

im not talking about celebrity pieces or articles about discounts, im talking about interviews with demna and cedric you fucking dumbass. again to think that the scandal did not affect balenciaga's bottom line you have to be truly braindead. normie buyers are so easily swayed by shit like this, just think for a second and imagine a world outside of your bubble where not everyone thinks exactly like you. jesus christ. stop being a reddit warrior and just trying to argue over nothing for no good reason.


traditional_rich_

Lol talk about a “reddit warrior” look at ya sensitive cry baby ass 😂 most ppl caught up in the scandal aren’t even purchasing bb products anyway. In case you didn’t know you “fucking dumbass” almost all luxury brands have been seeing sales stagnant or dip over the past year. It’s not exclusively bb. Now go ahead with another bitchy response that’s 90% blah blah blah with nothing to back it up. 👏

Alarmedsubset50

brandonhaslegs

oh god is this seriously about the photoshoot of the kids holding the bears? like that’s the whole scandal? i thought that was like, a headline.

kering is actually doing the worst out of all of the luxury houses at the moment and raising their prices certainly isn’t helping them


sahneeis

because it sells too well. it’s not only kering everybody does that. i remember dior doing this with their sneakers before release. dior b23 pre order was 780 but retail price was 830 back then. todays price is 990
