Tax is typically waived only when it is shipped to a state w/o a Nordstrom.

Any updates on catalogs? Anybody got one yet? I'm getting anxious. There's only three more mail days before my appointment. No mail on Saturday!

^^I'm level two and I haven't gotten mine yet either (nothing in the mail today). I really thought I'd received the catalog with my presale invite by this time last year. I have an appointment for next week with my SA, so I don't need the card, but I was hoping to look at some of the goodies in advance (other than the beauty items).

The Burberry wrap is very nice - in 3 color combos - I got the last purple one they had. Tons of fashion jewelry but very little of the nicer stuff -- no KJL that I saw but a ton of Betsy Johnson and Kate Spade pieces if you're into those brands. Shoes- Cole Haan boots that were cute but $299 on sale -yikes! Donald Pliner booties - also cute - some very cool Vera Wang black boots w/ buckles and several Ugg styles including the cardi style and a loafer -- 2 Burberry styles - ballet flat and a wedge sandal. I checked out 3 of the clothing depts and honestly I was really disappointed - I usually spend a ton on this sale and I presold almost nothing - the clothing selection was awful IMO - it looks like they tried to throw as much "inexpensive" merch at us as they could -- I would have rather had fewer nicer things honestly. I presold a cardi, a M. Kors top, the Burberry wrap and a couple pieces of jewelry for DD - my cc is thrilled
What do the Burberry ballet flats and wedge sandals look like?

TIA!

Does anyone have a SA they'd recommend at the Seattle Nordie's to do the pre-sale appt with? I had made an appointment with a girl that happened to be in the handbags department last week, but she's been unresponsive to my email about changing the appointment... or does anyone know if the SA's in the Gucci boutiques can pre-sale in the other departments (are they considered Nordstrom employee's?) for the anniversary sale?

I don't know about Seattle but last year I just went over to the Bellevue store and asked if I could order the presale. They were happy to write up my order.

classic nova check ballet flat (I think it's nova check or if not, really similar) and the sandal is a thong wedge w/ black leather and nova check on the wedge heel.

I haven't received my catalog either for the sale, and I'm a level 2 customer as well. I just did an online order and had a question about it so I called the main number. I spoke with a customer service rep and also told her that I hadn't received my catalog. She told me that they sending out the catalogs to be received on or around the 6th. Not a lot of time to look at it before we presale, but that is what I did hear.

Nick from Chicago was great in finding some CL during the designer sale. He responds quickly and is most helpful.

I stopped into a Nordstrom tonight. The SA there said that the catalogue doesn't come out until July 6. I snapped a pic of the Burberry tote for you ladies because I remembered seeing everyone asking for a pic:

I can't paste it in here because I only have Internet access from my phone for the time being so if you want the picture PM me with your email address! I'll try to post soon once I get to a computer :)
