🇩🇪 Shopping in Germany | Buying Bags is a Steal! 🛍️💶

The KaDeWe department store in Berlin is a shopper’s paradise – so many brands, and the stock is amazing! Walked in and asked directly about availability – both the Speedy 20 (€1,800) and Ivy (€1,490) were in stock. With 11% tax refund, the Ivy came out to around ¥10,400 RMB – almost ¥4,000 cheaper than buying it in China! 🎉 ⚠️ Important Note: The credit card used for payment MUST match the passport of the person applying for the tax refund. 📦 Tax Refund Guide: 1️⃣ The LV staff will prepare your tax refund documents in an envelope. 2️⃣ Head to the Global Blue counter on the 5th floor (no signs – ask any staff for directions 🧭). 3️⃣ Choose CASH refund – you’ll get euros on the spot! 💶 (If you choose card refund, you’ll wait longer and lose money on exchange rates.) 4️⃣ Keep your refund form safe! At the airport, go to the customs stamp office before check-in. 5️⃣ Customs may inspect your purchases (they must be unused + in original packaging 🎁). 6️⃣ After getting the stamp, drop the envelope in the Global Blue mailbox. ✅ 📌 If customs doesn’t stamp your form, Global Blue will charge back the refund + 10% fee! #TaxFreeShopping #LuxuryDeals #BerlinShopping #KaDeWe #TaxRefundGuide #LVLove
