Good call. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768189 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 18:28:19 +0000 Kirti 768189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks guys! I'm feeling like I made the right choice $20 would be just 15 euros or so, which makes it a 25 euro price hike!!! God!!! I have bought other things at the same price as the US though, like my cropped denim jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768154 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:48:05 +0000 Gaylene 768154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That price difference happens in Canada as well! Do international companies such as Zara and H&amp;M deliberately keep the price point lower in the States than in other countries to remain competitive? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768152 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:42:35 +0000 Astrid 768152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, 40€ is a standard price for many of their jackets over here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768135 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:23:07 +0000 Anonymous 768135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something even better will come along. Good decision. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768128 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:20:17 +0000 catgirl 768128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This jacket is worth $20 and no more than that, so I think you made the right decision, but I am sorry! Why the price difference? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768100 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:40:20 +0000 rae 768100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW. Crazy price difference... totally bizarre. FWIW, I would not have paid 40 Euro, either. :T </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-768039 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:26:11 +0000 Kristin L 768039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry Kirti. I'm sending big hugs your way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-767942 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 13:36:39 +0000 Debora 767942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear this, but I think you made the right decision.<br /> *big sigh* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-767939 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 13:32:48 +0000 Astrid 767939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's too bad, but I understand you. I think H&amp;M quality isn't what it used to be (at least over here) and I would hesitate to get one of their pricier items for that reason alone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-767856 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 10:34:10 +0000 Mona 767856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! that jacket looked divine on you. May be you can wait until it is on sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-767853 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 09:59:52 +0000 Deborah 767853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a shame, but I hear you. The same H&amp;M floral pants some of the girls have were 15.00 USD but the same pants here were 60AUD! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-emerald-jacket-update#post-767851 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 09:53:49 +0000 Kirti 767851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not getting the jacket after all the fit and colour were perfect and I do need more cropped toppers that go over my dresses. But his jacket costs 40 euros here, as opposed to $20 in the US! I cannot justify paying so much for a faux suede jacket from H&amp;M so not getting it! </p>
