I was just there - while I know prices have been raised some they have not totally caught up yet and there are still deals to be had, I saved about a third off a bag accessory from Louis Vuitton over its US price (although it is just as cheap in France) and actually found a couple of things I could afford at the Burberry factory outlet. Also saw a whole lot of continental types on the shopping streets, speaking French, Spanish, Italian and Eastern European languages.
