Default Anyone know if A/ R has listed their purchases of SS 08?

Hi all. I have been out of town and wanted to know if Aloha Rag has already been notifying people what styles and colors they purchased for Spring/Summer 2008. I emailed them in early October and they had stated they would let people know by the end of October, early November. Since I have been bugging them before I left, I was wondering if they had. Thanks for the heads up!

hmm yea they did say they'd "annouce" end oct or early nov. i'm only a few months old into their m/ship. did they usually notify thru the regular electronic mailing list? btw, i've written to them, hoping they can provide the inventory for almost all the styles (incl GH), and including accessories like coin purses and clutches.
