Don't forget, Gucci has been selling online via their site for some time, LV has a deal with eLuxury for a very large portion of their core collection and boutique cosmetics brands, such as NARS, have had e-commerce for a few years now. </p> Pretty much everyone I know if the luxury sector is interested in selling online.

In many large luxury operations, wholesale sales and retail sales are split into distinct parts of the company. In such an environment it can be difficult to place an online sales point. Wholesale staff tend not to be comfortable selling direct to consumers and the retail division can be very bricks and mortar biased. </p> I think the real issue may be distribution of a different sort.
