Clearly the seasonal colours aren’t for you Puncher, but I do believe they can have a significant impact on sales by fostering additional interest every six months. Presumably B&O see sales spike when they release new colours otherwise they would stop doing it.

 

 

I don’t think it should be a case of spending the money on other things. Surely money should be spent on all the areas you mention at an appropriate level in addition to the colour team, not instead of.

 

 

If the cost of the colour team creates more than that level of margin on additional sales (as I suspect it will) I’d say leave it alone.

 

 

I’m probably just a slave to capitalism or whatever but I’m guilty of that. I snapped up a pair of terracotta H9i when they released the AW18 season and sold the natural ones I had 😳👍😳

That was the model I wanted, but to slow, best they have made so far 😁

Well it seems the Terracotta H9i's were very popular - I hope Jon enjoys his and I'm sorry Emil missed out - all done without a specialist colour department or any trips to Havana …. QED!

AW18's colors were inspired by a trip to Marrakesh: "The AW18 Collection pays tribute to the rich colours found in the ancient natural world, taking its inspiration from the old city of Marrakesh, with its timeless colours, textures, and hues – rich, warm, and harmonious"

... but could equally have been inspired by a cost to my greenhouse with much less expense!

Ban boring signatures!

Honestly I bet they just went to the Danish equivalent of B&Q and thought “oh that looks nice” 😂

Beovision Eclipse, Beolab 20, Beosound 1 Google assist, Beoplay M3, Beoplay H6

Oh no :( I just looked and it seems Bang & Olufsen of Glasgow’s website bollostore.com might have some in stock though?

They’re probably the only popular seasonal colour, everything else seems to stick around longer and then ends up heavily discounted on eBay.

But does your greenhouse look as inspirational as a shoot in Marrakesh?

So, B&O had to travel all the way to Marrakesh to discover beige? 😎

If she drops these, they're lost forever... 😂
