Help purchasing shares

[Harcourt]

Hi,

For my wedding anniversary as a novelty I wanted to get my wife some shares in Louis Vuitton (the actual company is called LVMH)

If anyone can offer any assistance how i'd go about this that would be great, as I don't really have much idea.

Presumably I need to find a stockbroker but I was wondering if they would bother with a relatively small transaction like this. Also i'm not sure which exchange this companies on but I dont its the London one.Any help appreciated! Thanks

Their main quote is on the Paris Bourse, but per my Sharescope database they also have a London quote - abbreviation LVM for £60 per share.

Find a low-cost broker like Hargreaves Lansdown or TDWaterhouse and it should be fine!

Ermm that would be a novelty. Good luck with that gift

I'm sure your wife will be thrilled, don't forgot to duck the swinging handbag

she won't have the hand bag - he is only buying the shares

I don't mean an LV handbag, I mean one that comes handy to hit someone with

oh right - that would be the one with the house brick in it kept handy for such occasions

I should have looked harder at that quote - they gave up the London quote in 2007! But it's still quoted at around 100 euros in Paris, berlin, and other exchanges - a good broker will have no trouble buying it.

I bought my wife new car mats for her car for her birthday a couple of years ago. Car mats hurt more than a handbag :redface:

Seriously though - congratulations

Of course we know what women want - but we couldn't possibly post it up on a nice tasteful site like this one!

I bought my ex a cute nightdress case in the form of a big white fluffy cat just like the real cat I inherited when she moved in with me. Bloody thing was always prowling the kitchen worktops and leaving bits of grit everywhere are scracthing in the cat tray.

Time and time again I told the ex - knock the bloody thing off but she never did. Then I came acroos the big white fluffy cat amongst a lot of other cuddly toys in a garage and so I bought it and put it on the worktop by the back door for when she came home from shopping.

She thought it was her cat of course and you should have seen the look on her face as I picked it up by the scruff of the neck and threw the thing out into the garden.

Shock enough for the poor girl perhaps but I had also but a big jar of beetroot in a seal proof bag inside the thing and then I picked up my shotgun by the back door.

Bang . Blood everywhere of so it seemed. Served her right the ungrateful *****. 3 months earlier I had bought her a brand new Metro only to find out she had been having an affair with one of my friends who happened to be the car dealer.

I bought one girlfriend a pigs trotter once for christmas, dont know why, pretty random, wrapped it as well.She laughed, I'll have to remind her about that when I see her next. By the way she's still wearing the ring I bought her when she was sixteen, she's 50 this yr, married someone else though.

I shall never understand men!

Now you know how we feel

 

[elaine@cheapaccounting]

Nope - have no idea how you feel

 

[GaryMc]

I shall never understand men!

There isn't much to understand.

Put stuff in the big hole at the top and take stuff out the small pipe at the bottom and we are pretty much happy.

 

[oldeagleeye]

I will never understand mothers. Typical threat to child.

You run across that road and get knocked down by a car and I'll kill you.

 

[Bri]

or stop crying before I give you something to cry about!!

 

[elaine@cheapaccounting]

and the classic - don't come running to me if you fall off that and break your leg

To go back to the OP's topic, due to money laundering regulations you won't be able to buy the shares in your wife's name but instead you will have to buy them yourself and get them transferred to her after letting her know what her present is.

If you want the certificate the fees generally increase and you'll need a stock transfer form which once filled out will have to be sent with the share certificate to the registrar of LV who will issue your wife with a new certificate free of charge.

 

[mr. mischief]

You will be able to buy the shares in her name - but only if you get her to sign all the forms from the broker authorising you to deal on her behalf. This kinda takes away the surprise, could be time to shell out for the handbag!

I was also thinking it might be cheaper

do you know how much a handbag costs?

 

[wizzard]

Well by the time the OP has gone through the hassle of buying the shares filling in all of the paperwork to transfer the shares, the loss of surprise in all of that, maybe?

 

[GaryMc]

Lots but you're worth every penny dear?

Given most of the Loius Vitton handbags on the street appear to be fakes, this does seem appropriate

I didn't have any of those problems with the car mats and they were certainly a surprise

It is a good idea to have shares of LV
