so I ordered myself a little Christmas present, was looking for DHI. I searched on the forums here and where to buy it, and ended up with strawberrynet. My email says strawberrynet is Hong Kong...which kinda scares me with knock offs. did I screw up?

StrawberryNet is reputable. Not to worry.

If you are close to any of the boutiques, you can get it for around $80.00. Got another one last week in NYC.

Ive never bought a fake fragrance in Strawberrynet. They have an big intermediate depot in Sweden, where they send over the EU area the fragrances from . Customs can't be collected, as the origin is inside EU area (Sweden).

How much was it on Strawberry.net? DH Boutique sells it for $72 and you're getting it from Dior directly.

I called DH boutique in Vegas today and they were out. Called DH in NYC and they had it as of earlier today. It's $72, no tax for where I live in US, and I think shipping is $11 (yes I know that seems like a lot for shipping). To me it's worth it because I can do it all over the phone and I know it's the real thing. I don't have to worry about "is ____ a legit vendor? is this real juice" concerns. Unless they're selling it for $30 at Strawberry, I'd much rather buy from boutique even if it's a little more money.

Sorry for soap box, but whenever I see one of these threads it's the first thing I think.

Which location did you call? I just got a bottle last week from Vegas. From recollection, there are two locations.

Got a second bottle in NYC two weeks ago. I advise you to order a bottle before they run out.

Me too. The one in the Pallazo is the boutique. I just ordered it and the girl on the phone was very nice, professional, and helpful and promised to add several samples. Buy from them not some online site.
Here is the phone number to the Vegas store. 1-702-734-1102

Looks like I called the one at the Wynn (?). I just googled. He said I should call one of the other stores (Caesar's and another spot I can't remember), but I just called DH NYC instead since I've had successful purchase from them before.

+1 for the vegas store. I believe it was the boutique in the Forum shops that I had ordered from.

As for Strawberrynet, no thank you.

The internet has many legit vendors. It is an accepted and widely utilized medium for doing business. There's nothing inherently wrong with buying online, particularly for many people who aren't in locations near cool boutiques. Strawberrynet is a legit vendor doing legit trade.

If you live in NYC or Vegas or Paris, well off you trot to the nearest boutique - I would!

I know that I have had a poor experience with Strawberrynet. Trust me, I wanted things to work out. If others have had positive ones, then kudos to them. I hope they continue to do so. I just know that I will do what I can to circumvent using them.

On the plus side, DHI is a great fragrance no matter where you get it!

Oh bummer for your experience - it only takes one bad experience to lose the trust of your customers ......

And yes DHI sure is good
