Right, I'm seriously contemplating buying a coral reg Bayswater but I don't know whether to buy it now or wait to the sales? I'm thinking I might as well buy it now what with the price rises, I'm not sure I would be actually saving that much, plus there's no guarantee I will get one and I'm not sure I can handle the stress!

Does anyone know how much the specials bays will be on Nov 1st and how much may be off in the sale, if its only a small difference I mght plump and get it now!!

Hi Princess Roxy, Don't quote me but I think they may be going up to £695 from November. If the bag makes the sale Bays are usually around 30% off making it £486.50. There is a chance it could sell out beforehand, but on the other hand it may get reduced to 50%, you never know! Good luck with your decision.

Don't forget that the last sale was opened to the US before the UK so alot of the desireable bags had sold out before they got to us!

I am assuming you are in the UK, if you are US based ignore all that!

No, I'm in the uk! How come Mulberry don't share the stock out, it doesn't seem very fair! When does the sale start?

Unfortunately, its not feasable to start all the sales at the same time. Traditionally, US sales are all before xmas (which makes so much more sense!), and so prices are reduced there in line with every other US store. Our sale usually starts on Xmas day on line, and early jan for stores that are stockists :)

forgot to say, I love the coral

I really don't know what to do!!! I know I should wait for the sale, John Lewis and pret are also selling them so i could try in their sale I suppose? I'm not sure I can take it, my heart is actually longing for one!!!

Does anyone know what time the sale on Mulberry starts?

Ask yourself IF they sold out whether you can live without it and not too disappointed or not... if you really really like this one and think that no other bag can replace and you have to have it then just buy it now...

If it were me, I would wait. They will always turn up at the outlets if you dont manage to get one in the sale! Its a given!

There are two bags I badly want right now - but Im going to wait til Xmas day & see if I can get them in the sale online with the extra discount. If not, I will try for them in the instore sale, which usually starts in Scotland on the 26th!
