Objectively I think it's a good deal, but last year at one of their big sales I got my sister the grey zeus trophy for about $180...since I saw her bag in real life (she's lucky I let her have it!) I've been dreaming about that deal coming around again...

When there's a bag I like, I usually set a "target" price and then get it when it gets there and try not to look back if it goes down further.

Good advice - setting a target and not looking back! HH sales are so crazy you really never know what's going to happen. Its nerve racking, but that's part of the fun I suppose . . .

Sonia in Black Onyx for $175. I'd say that's a deal and done! Haven't seen one on the bay for less than $240, last I checked. Otherwise the sale is meh.

What's nice too is that since it's "only" 68% off, it's still returnable...

gingeybear · Jun 30th, 2009, 04:17 PM

OK..just checked back in after being out for a few hours..still..meh..I am NOT paying $43 for a carryall..NFW..nope.

Suzzeee · Jun 30th, 2009, 04:18 PM

That is one good thing about the sale - looks like most items are returnable - otherwise no real "blow out" deals that's for sure!

gingeybear · Jun 30th, 2009, 04:26 PM

Now HH is starting with the "only X remaining" shtick...not going to fall for that again...if it goes..it goes..Hmmph...fool me once shame on you...fool me twice..shame on me...fool me three times..I will go to Greenpoint and warning...be afraid..be very afraid!

Miss Curly · Jun 30th, 2009, 04:31 PM

Yeah, the remaining thing is freaking me out on the Beatrice though. I really wanted that bag, but the price is still a little scary to me.

I thought the old texas saying was "fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

LOL

Miss Curly · Jun 30th, 2009, 05:01 PM

Eye Heart, I don't really have a set price, but I was hoping for a bit lower. It has been this price before, so I'm not blown away yet.

I have gotten a lot of this stuff at lower prices: the Painterly Staci, the Camille Lido, VCP Joey and I got the BZ Trophy around that $169 price too. This was my first BB and I was hoping for something more like last year. I read that thread in preparation.

Minnifer · Jun 30th, 2009, 05:01 PM

BB Trophy now on sale, but for $305.

Perhaps I should just stalk around for a used one. Re: havana, if you say it's totally different from the origami then perhaps I should indulge.

heh heh. I am not totally sure about the color tho. Maybe MB, BB or brandy since I am holding off on the wyeth hobo?

The black is awesome. I'm not sure if it's still in stock but you could try here??
