Small sizes are under retail: Melitta Baumeister Vomero “Total Orange” from $170
Four sizes from 8 to 12 sell under retail. Size 10 and up ask more, though a size 11.5 fell $479 this week.
A week after its October 30 release, the Melitta Baumeister x Vomero Premium “Total Orange” costs $170 in a women's size 8. That's $90 under its $260 retail, and the lowest price I've seen in that size since my checks began on September 29.
The cheapest pair in sizes 8 to 12 was first listed at $176 on September 29, before the release. It stayed there until November 3, when it slipped to $170. That's a 3% move in a week. This pair didn't crash after release. It just eased a little.
Under retail or over
The split is by size. Sizes 8, 8.5, 9 and 9.5 sell under retail. Sizes 10 to 12 all ask more, up to $405 in a size 12.
| US size | Nov 7 | Oct 31 | Vs retail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | $170 | $176 | −$90 |
| 8.5 | $224 | $195 | −$36 |
| 9 | $201 | $227 | −$59 |
| 9.5 | $213 | $248 | −$47 |
| 10 | $315 | $369 | +$55 |
| 10.5 | $350 | $369 | +$90 |
| 11 | $404 | $456 | +$144 |
| 11.5 | $400 | $879 | +$140 |
| 12 | $405 | $668 | +$145 |
The table shows how far each size moved this week. Eight of the nine sizes from 8 to 12 got cheaper. The one that went the other way is size 8.5, up $29 to $224. Size 9 at $201 and size 9.5 at $213 are both at their lowest since I started tracking.
The big sizes fell the hardest. A size 11.5 dropped $479 to $400, but that's $140 over retail. A size 10 is $315, though it has listed as low as $231 since my checks began. Below the usual range, a size 7 is $137 and a 7.5 is $145, both cheaper than the size 8.
My take
If you wear a size 8 to 9.5, I'd buy now. You're already paying less than retail, and size 8 hasn't been cheaper in my nightly checks. If you wear a 10 or bigger, I'd wait: those sizes are over retail today and came down fast this week. Prices can move either way, though.
The rest of the line is on the every Vomero Premium page.
