AP website prices removed
Just as I noticed Lange removed their prices from their website before increasing their prices by 10-20%, would this mean AP might increase their prices again?

Hm. "Price on Request" for everything on the US site. Not a good sign, I guess.

There have been quite significant movements in various exchange rates (mostly USD gaining). Maybe a combined price hike/regional adjustment. By now I'd be more surprised if they would forego the twice-annual increase.

Seeing the same. Prices were there yesterday.
Also. Quite a few pieces were moved to the ‘Legacy’ page 26239, 26521, 26331. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I uh...think currency adjustments only go in one direction, against your favor! Local currency drops, price increase. Local currency increases, price stays the same.

Not always. I remember when the euro came closer to the dollar like it is today the prices came down. Also when gold dropped significantly the prices came down. But then I remember them saying to me it wasn't because of gold but because of the euro so idk.

Pretty sure that did happen to AP in ~2013, they lowered prices on their gold pieces. I heard they did work with people that made a recent purchase (before the adjustment) to maintain relationships.

I thought only particular models at first… and seems they still haven’t fixed the product page on iOS browser…

True! The USD leveled with CHF for the first time in many years. Cool that could mean a price drop for me haha

That makes sense. They moved the ROC already. Waiting to see if/when the rest go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Interested to see the new UK pricing as it doesn't seem long ago since the last increase...

Prices are back on the website and I don't see changes at first glance. Lots of models though moved to the legacy section. I think last week they used to have around 260-ish and not it's 145. Big clean up and some of you pointed out it is mostly in RO and ROO.

Good to see that AP finally cleaned up their "current" collection page - that was a constant source of confusion. |

Actually, in my current country of residence, prices are back and... for at least one... went down.
Nothing crazy. Minus €400 on a €90k piece. But still worth noting. |
