They had this clutch bag, but for the after sale price of $1100... I'd prefer the timeless. *Shrug* Total bust. Don't even bother (for NYC anyway).

One of the worst parts: I had been IN the store on Wednesday asking about the sale with my regular SA who works in designer handbags not Chanel, and they denied that they were going to have a sale, saying the sale had already passed. I hate dishonest SAs!! >[

Aww, thanks for the update...I was eyeing that mustardy Sharpei tote.

Yesterday, at my Saks, two women actually got into a fight over a handbag.......there must have been 25 women grabbing bags from the sales tables and the poor SA's and the Manager were looking on in disbelief.....it was not a pretty sight............and yes, some women had 6 and 7 bags on their arms............some of the customers were very, very rude and nasty..............

Wow, what is going on??? I just ran into the same thing at my Saks- they were mobbed by people in both Gucci and Chanel, and there were two women in Chanel running around grabbing up bags and putting them on their arms, and making the SAs check and double check the prices! I didn't stay long enough to see what, exactly, was on sale- just dropped off my PST and logo earrings to be fixed, and glanced around a bit- it was crazy! When I was leaving, one of the Chanel hogs was getting b^%chy with an SA because one of the bags she grabbed wasn't on sale, and she was insisting a manager told her it was...yikes!

I'm going to go back tomorrow morning early, and hopefully it won't be such a crazy mob scene. I have never seen anything like that at Saks before!

Thanks to habanerita, I got to talk to her SA from Saks in Florida and she told me the following are still available:
-Hidden Chain
-LAX in red and blue
-Drill in black

Her SA is Lazara 305-978-9927

I will be back later to give you an update on Saks in Pittsburgh

sclisa · Nov 21st, 2008, 02:02 PM

It's such a shame that sales bring out the worst in some people. Thank god we can place orders via telephone and email.

Hi, I don't post in Chanel but thought I'd give you an update of what I found during my search for Marc Jacobs:

I just got off the phone with Jeff at the Santa Barbara, CA Saks. They don't carry Marc Jacobs. He does have some Chanel bags but didn't know the names. He was describing to me a "small tote, quilted, leather handles, with silver hardware and round silver things on each side?" The said it is a good everday bag. This one is $1195 down from $2395. No extra 50% on these bags. He has it is black, a tan color and "bourdeaux" He also has other evening bags and bags w/ chains but I didn't ask about. (805)884-9997, ask for designer handbags, then Jeff. He was really nice, they sounded busy but not so busy that I didn't get right through to him.

vastare · Nov 21st, 2008, 04:26 PM

I want a gucci clutch which is $248 with 50% off but do not have a Saks card and I am soooo upset. Anyone knows how to get around it without Saks card? TIA

Thx for posting! Sounds like the timeless bowler.

Cathryn · Nov 21st, 2008, 04:31 PM

Which Saks store has it? Maybe someone here has a good relationship with an SA at that location that can do it for you without the Saks card. Or maybe you can open an account, you should get another 10% too.

My SA sent me those pics when I was sleeping, so I don't know if they're still available. Please call her for details, no PM please! As I don't know more.

She also has 2 LAX black bags; but those have been posted everywhere.

My SA is Elmira at Saks NY, her cell is # 917.660.4887 I do not have the store number in mind, please do a search.
