Are the prices on that page already discounted? Or will they all be dropped by 30%+ once it becomes public?

Not discounted. It is simply a page showing what WILL be on sale. And by using a voucher, you get 30% off.

I imagine (and am hoping), that when the same begins, it will start at 30% off at least and all those items will be marked down. Then I can use my credit to buy discounted shiz.

Thanks!
That's what I thought...I want some of the nike items and I don't think they'll sell out, so I am hoping for a higher than 30% dc :)

One day the golden TBS tit is going to stop pumping milk. I predict first world outrage when it happens.

It happens all the time. The delay shouldn't take long and you will get your package in a day or two.

What's the highest percentage Lanvin gets discounted on their site?

Most are at 30% but the ones I'm looking to pick up aren't moving at all, do they get reduced even further?

^ Maybe it's a terrible iteration or I have large feet, but what I'm looking to pick up hasn't been moving at all, I've been monitoring it since the private sale started last week. I already picked up the two pairs I really wanted before they sold out, I'm just not sure if I should pull the trigger or if they get discounted further since they're just sitting there. The money saved would just go towards Fedex fees from a few previous TBS orders (almost $100).

Only a few went into the sale. The others were only added to the site recently.

It's older, limited sized stock which goes into the sales.

Voucher, Discount Code and lack of tax ends up in a pretty good deal from TBS.

Crosspost from RFT. TBS disappoints lately.


Just recieved Lanvin sneakers from TBS. look like a second hand eBay purchase. Sole dirty and showing wear. FFS!

Ordered these Dries a couple of days ago from TBS:




Got them today.
Opened up the box. Wrinkles on the upper leather, bruises on the wood sole, and they have clearly been walked around in since the sole is dirty. No tags whatsoever.

Still wanted to try them on. Could barely get them on my feet and when they were finally on, they were too long. When I took them off, the front of the insole got loose and rolled up a bit. Looks like it was poorly glued.

Overall very disappointing from both Dries, in terms of quality, and TBS for actually selling this. I hope they believe me when I return them.

Yeah mine had no tags either and the paper/cardboard that is usually stuffed into new shoes was just sitting on top of the shoes in the box so clearly a return.
Have sent them pictures as requested so will see what becomes of the situation. Unfortunately the colourway is sold out everywhere as well so not just an easy return and swap :(
