Kooba question...

[JNH14]

Why does Neiman Marcus list the original price of the Kooba Carla at $650, when the tag on the Kooba bag says $635? Do they have diferent prices on the bags for different stores? Seems odd to me...

lol hmm, maybe they're just rounding up? no idea sry i can't be of any help!

The Carla is 650. The Ginger is 635.

I just got my Ginger from Revolve, and it had been advertised as $605, but the Kooba tag says $575. The only thing I could think of was that the $575 is what Kooba themselves would sell it for, and maybe the $605 would be the mark up? Though the Kooba tags says "suggested retail," so I'm not sure.

The Carla is 650. The Ginger is 635.

I guess I must have read the tag wrong...I'd better put the old glasses back on...thanks!

Sellers can set their own retail price structure. Kooba Inc. only gives them a suggested retail.

Someone explain the difference in price-I don't get it...

 

[ciatta]

Me either...I've seen it and wondered the same thing. Dunno....

 

[KoobaLover]

Hmm. I wonder if they're from different seasons? The dimensions look like they could be slightly different, as well as the length of the braids? I'm not too familiar with this bag...

 

[JNH14]

Lexie, are you out there? Can you explain this difference? See photos above!

Yeah, I'd love to know, too. When I was researching my Kooba Braedon, I was finding discrepancies all over the place! What's the deal?

 

[polos26]

beats me! I do know that revolve clothings lists kooba for a bit more expensive than the kooba website. I am sure that they do this with everything, but then again, its 'free' 2 day shipping....guess its not free.

I agree with what was mention before about the bags maybe being different season? but we definitely need a pro on this one.

 

[Cheekers]

Kooba's prices are only suggested retail. The retailers charge whatever they want. Certain textures or colors may be more or less due to volume or demand.

I believe they are 2 different seasons. They don't put out two types of leather on the same bag in a season. Even with a suede variety they will bring out later than the Season Preview. The 1st one is a smooth leather, and the 2nd is a distressed rougher leather. I think the braid length just might be a difference in how high the handle is pulled up. You can see in the 2 pics the handle is stretched differently. Even the black Carla under the Terraine pic looks slightly different. And as for price, I don't think the smooth leather did so well. Remember how we saw all those metallic borwn Koobas on sale a little while back? They obviously weren't a great hit either.

 

[Cheekers]

Yeah, they are the same bags just different leathers, exactly.

Oh and I am surprised about the smooth leather b/c I think the brown metallic is GORGEOUS!
