I tried to google Louis Vuitton cost vs. purchase price, and couldn't find it. It CERTAINLY seems like they have at least 500% mark up. There is no reason to charge the price they do for leather goods, that you can source elsewhere for very little cost.
So maybe the management at Louis Vuitton figures, sit there and watch the merchandise leave the room by theft, if you get a few paying customers here and there, you'll still make an outrageous profit?
They’re charging for the name and they have every right to do so. The entitled criminals, however, don’t have the right to steal them or any leather good.

What I'm saying is, this is probably the reason they're not actively protecting their stores.
Because they can sell a few items and that would make up for massive theft.
This isn't new that they're not bothering to protect their stores, it's been going on for a few years. Apparently if they sell some of their merch for what their asking, they're good.

Then why don't the criminals steal more competitively priced products?

How many times has this happened to that LV store?

My wife says Louis Vuitton is very high quality but I cringe when she thinks about buying one she mostly sticks to the coach price range the ones made in the last few years she doesn't like the quality. Many people have them friend of hers who isn't wealthy bought $1200 Louis Vuitton. I guess everyone has to have a hobby I have spent money on my hobbies so I can't really complain.
With online fencing it's easy to drive to another state and list them on eBay. They really need to bring in the FBI and start a task force. Maybe hide some kind of trackers in these purses run stake out operations.
From other videos I have watched apparently police are not allowed to be hired for security in these stores in California. Here in Arizona uniformed police can be hired as a security for stores in high crime areas Circle K does that see an officer posted at the door.
Well, the voters in California own this miss 100% since they simply went along with the Left’s BS ideals and voted for all their stupid ideals. Now, they’re shocked that this type of criminal activity is happening and only growing.
Honestly, there is a fix that’s so easy that Californians will not be able to figure it out… Make crimes, to include shoplifting, a crime and lock them up for their crimes.

Wow… What an amazing concept!!
If you think about it voters probably don't care if a few high end stores get robbed, or even large chain stores. Voters only care when they get robbed so I don't see anything changing.
This administration is why this type stuff happens. They encourage it and dems states allow it and call it peaceful protesting. If they don't want to arrest people then enjoy your crime and fires and everything else.

The left have gone mad. They have all lost their minds.
The hyperbolic nonsense posted above is even more insane.
Democrats encourage and condone this type of activity, so I’m not sure why city leaders would be upset about this.
