@goosehd said in Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…:

There are a few brands out there that their prices have raised significantly over the last 4-5 years

I work in luxury fashion and this is definitely through. especially between 2020-2023. lots of luxury fashion brands are starting to feel the backlash of the aggressive price increases.

Meanwhile Rolex just keeps on ticking with price increases

[Kasi]

Well that’s gonna happen as it been a while I haven’t brought a pair.

Possibly a lot of them will walk alway.
When they start to hiking prices up.
When no one buying sales discount kick in

[goosehd]

@mclaincausey I damn near shat myself when I saw how much my last Rolex rose in price since Fall 2023...It has went from absurd to ludicrous.

Right now is the best time to go to JMM Milan. They don’t have global blue tax free set up so they’re just discounting 13%. So I jumped on it.

@JerkStore
do they have a webshop ?
as mentioned earlier, eye-oo in Italy has 25% discount on many glasses.

[JerkStore]

No. Just a brick and mortar near the Four Seasons.

@Steffen
They’re typically all done In limited runs.
For example my ichikawas are number 234/500
And my Richard’s are 190/350. If you see something you like jump on it. I believe the Enzo’s have a larger run seemingly more of them around.

To answer plainly I don’t believe they do re runs of “old” frames. At least that’s how it was explained.

@thehambergerlar Just a quick heads up that the post you replied to was a few years old and the poster for the question hasn’t been on the forum for about the same length of time. You probably will not get a response from him.

@goosehd
Fair enough! Missed the date there for sure.

@mclaincausey actually their resale value has come down. they've quite a few number of precious metals (full rose/ yellow gold) models available at retail.

problem is since the resale value has come down, a lot of yellow and rose gold models from a couple years back are under retail too.

[louisbosco]

@JerkStore are they actual JMM boutiques or eyewear retailers?

[mclaincausey]

@louisbosco the store in Milan is their first outside of LA. It is a JMM store and not a reseller.

[JerkStore]

Actual boutique and a gorgeous space.

[mclaincausey]

@JerkStore get any pics?

[JerkStore]

No. I was too excited about the straight 13% discount because their tax refund global blue wasn't set up.

Early birthday gift from a great friend.
JMM Grand Prix styled after Paul Newman. Though I find they look way more in line with the Master himself…

[Daniel San]

@Mizmazzle
awesome mate, great present
looks great on you!

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle Hell yea! Now you just need to find that shirt with the strings

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 @Daniel-San thanks gents. When I first saw them I thought they were wild. When I tried them on it was instant love. My jaw hit the ground when they were gifted to me!
