Default I was amazed at the retail Coach selection...

...at the outlets this weekend!!!

I just got back from visiting the family, so in the past couple of weeks, I've visited and purchased from 5 different outlets!! I posted some of that before, but I wanted to update that list for central PA since I was SHOCKED to see some of the pieces there! I'm positive many were customer returns, but nevertheless, after going back to one outlet 3 times, most of the bags were still there. So, in case anyone is interested, here is a list. I will post as I think of additional items. My brain is a bit fried at the moment!


Pleated ergo hobos in natural, and I think I also saw one in white!!

Legacy '08 Crossbody pilot in amethyst!!! (It's the small accessory, but I will have to check my notes for the style number and official name)

Leg. Thompson Juliette!!!

Tons of Carlys, too many to mention, including a large selection of the turq and geranium sig bags. Many in leather, but only camel in the large.

Lily denim satchel

Gigi specatator and also the denim version.

Legacy shoulder flaps in sig with white trim and whiskey (some have the black spots, so it's wise to check them over).

Legacy Thompson floral top handle

Leg. Thompson top handle in ink, natural, and toffee

Leg. Thompson slim tote in chestnut

Leg. Thompson hobos in ink, chestnut, parchment, and toffee.

Leg., Thompson Karee satchel

Leg. Thompson Julia

Bleecker shopper in black

Bleecker med. duffles in buckskin

Hamptons Miranda and carryalls (mostly natural, and also bordeaux Miranda...some not in the best of condition, so it's wise to check them over!).

All the Soho stuff...berry satchels, hobos, pebble leather, etc... They also just received more Soho stuff that will debut in Sept. (they can't bring it out to the floor now).

The older style ergo hobos in patent pond and some leather (didn't pay much attention to all the variations).

Heritage speedy satchel in white, and also totes in geranium and green. Accessories too.

Tattersall tote.

Signature totes...bronze, black/gunmetal.

Spring '08 patchwork bags

Indigo and khaki patchwork ergos and totes.

Still some '07 Scribble and the '08 watercolor stripes.

A TON of accessories and wallets...some are older 2-3 yr old styles. I even managed to pick up the oxford stripe pouch that matches my wallet and wristlet!! It was hiding in the cabinet for heaven only knows how long!!!




Ok, that's all I can think of right now... Sorry, my memory is hazier for the sig stuff, but if you have any specific bag questions, I might remember!

Oh, I just wanted to add that Lancaster has the best selection overall, but Hershey is the one that had the most unusual bags!

Nope, it's not new...or not that new. I remember it being open at least by the end of 2006, I think, because that's when I got a bunch of gift certs for b-day and Xmas and I shopped there for the first time. I don't think it had been open that long at that point, though.

I think I'm missing some items, but at this point I was surprised to see the stuff because the biggest wave of retail stock has already come and gone over the last two weeks. I thought I was going at a bad time, actually!

Lancaster has a TON of wallets...and I mean TON!!! Just open the drawers and have them check the cabinets...it's literally bursting. Many wallets are excellent deals too. They had a lot of clutch type wallets, but I'm not sure which one you are referring to. They didn't have a lot of Bleeckers, because I was looking for the large all leather one for someone, but they did have sig and the smaller leather ones. They had Hamptons in both the large and small size, Legacy slim envelope and french purses. I noticed clay ones have resurfaced...they had both sizes. Also walnut, sunflower, metallic, camel, black. A lot of Soho wallets...multiprint and leather, and also the tonal wallets in both brown and pink. Legacy Thompson wallets in chestnut, parchment, citron, and chestnut. Also the patent Legacy in teal, mahogany, purple, and white (this pissed me off since I bought the teal and purple on PCE!!). Heritage wallets. Hmmm....I can't think of more, but I know there were more!

Let me know if the charge send works out. I want a bleeker compact clutch wallet also.

When you say "hiding in the cabinet", are you saying you opened a cabinet to browse...or asked a SA to do so...or what?

Please refer to my thread about all the good "stuff" hiding in the drawers. Some people have mentioned that they just open the drawers to look, so I was wondering if that is what you did.

No, they only do charge holds...but they will hold it for at least two weeks once you do that. Otherwise, they will hold it for you based on 48-hr holds. I've had them hold for 4 days before, but then I went to pick up the item. Other outlets will hold longer or shorter periods. It really depends on who you know (or dont) as to how nice they are about that, I think!

I do just open the drawers, but there is a SA I always try to buy from that searched with me. I wasn't aware about the cabinet because Hershey uses that for the customer holds. Lancaster actually stores stock in it inside plastic bins. THese are the cabinets next to the registers. Otherwise, yes, I always open up the drawers and look. They have no problem with that, but might ask me what i'm looking for. I just say someone is helping me or that I'm casually looking. There is one annoying woman from hell at Lancaster, and thank goodness she was working the front of the store this time...so DH and I zoomed past!!
