For ex, the Lily they had they shipped off, and they also had some of the Chelsea calf hair pieces that were still pretty marked up at the time. I remember I got a Mandy there that I couldn't find that color at Lancaster at the time...and a few pieces here an there. Overall, it has always struck me as a fairly useless outlet.
Sounds like Hagerstown, some of those "one of a kind' pieces and very little people who are willing to put the $$ down on it. Least Hagerstown has a jewelry stand :0

I remember one time I was at Reading and the manager at the time was practically in tears. It was back in the days when Coach was producing way too much stuff and it was all going to the factory stores.

She had boxes all over the place and had no room to put the stuff. She was on the phone with district because it was so bad she didn't know what to do!

I popped into Lancaster late in the day today and imho, they had nothing. I was all set with my 20% off coupon to buy something, anything...but I left empty-handed. There just wasn't anything that caught my eye. They did have a bunch of Zoe's, even some of the woven which I thought I might NEED but when I saw it in person I just felt meh. I didn't see any Anna clutches because I almost certainly would have bought one. Mostly everything was MFF and some of it was ok but nothing grabbed me. They did have some cute stuff in an optic gold/silver pattern (wristlets, etc.) and some cute sneakers but I didn't find anything that I loved enought to buy, even at an extra 20% off. Maybe I'm just pickier these days? Ah well, I found some cute stuff in Gap and JCrew so it wasn't a wasted trip, lol.

One thing that was kind of funny is that I strolled right on up and opened the drawers at the wallet tables and started rooting through...I figured if other tpf'ers do this, it must be ok. No one said anything so....

no... sorry. I got the idea from this board that it isn't really well traveled. So sad, since it is a Huge outlet! Maybe call to see if they are getting any of the Bonnie, Cricket, or Peytons that the other outlets are getting?
