Default Info. about 6/19/08 SS Straight from Botkier

Hi, Since noone really knew any of the specifics. Whether or not the sale was going to be online. Or if we could attend the VIP night, via request. What bags would be there? I decided to ask Botkier themselves. So I HTH answer some of your questions.

I'll show you my note first- then their response

Hi, I am a member of The purse forum (TPF), and someone mentioned that we should RSVP here, for the Sample Sale. I would like to know if I could be added, and if so, what info would I have to give. Also, alot of the people in the forum wanted to know if the sale would be online as well; so that those who are not located in NY, would be able to participate as well. And lastly (sorry for all the questions), there have been alot of questions as to whether the Sasha's, Stevies & Bianca's will be included in the sale. I'll post the answers on the forum, so that way you won't get bombarded with several emails asking the same questions.

Thank you for your time,

Priscilla

Dear Priscilla,

Hello. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our upcoming sample
sale. The Friends and Family night that you are referring to is an
invitation only event. Only those people on the guest list will be admitted
that night. During that limited time of the event, we will only have a
select amount of product available saving the vast majority of our inventory
for when the sale is open to the public. It is our intent to create the best
shopping experience for our loyal and devoted clients.

Regarding an on line sale, currently we do not have any plans,
but things can certainly change so I recommend that you and the other
members of the Purse Forum check our website for updates.

The inventory for the sample sale has not been finalized and
therefore I am not sure if any bags from these groups will be included. It
is best to come to the sale and check out what is being offered. In
addition, the inventory is subject to change as the sale progresses.

I hope I was able to answer all of your questions sufficiently.

Thank you again for your inquiry.

Thanks for trying to get some information! I think they always list most of the un sold stock on their website.

God I hope they do an online sale as well! I'm desperate for a second Bianca ....or a Sasha tote in bordeaux....or a Frankie....or maybe the Stevie hobo.

But the Bianca and Sasha tote first!
