For instance, I (at the last minute) decided to pop into Saks today...I had only purchased a bag for my sister for her birthday, and then realized I REALLY wanted a new work tote, so I was going to ask my SA to let me know if any good Prada or Miu Miu totes came back so that I could buy one for work. I literally walked in and my SA was like, "OHMYGOSH...I was just thinking of you"...and before I could tell her why I was there...she showed me this beautiful Miu Miu VERY dark blue (looks almost black) tote that someone just brought back....got it for $360...what a steal...and it is gorgeous. I also "browsed" the table and saw an SA put back a Prada goldish champagne clutch....bought that for my mom for Christmas (hello...it was $165).

So...the point is...there will still be bags...so go to Saks and see what happens....even if you look like a purse narc.... There would not be a "returns" post on this site if we all did not second guess ourselves...keep the faith!
Thanks ryrybaby! I'm hoping and praying for a few returns!!! I'm in Canada so can't visit any Saks so if anyone sees one, please let us know!! I have an ever growing list of emails for SA's but I think you have much better lunch when you build a relationship with them in person.

I agree with Luxurina....getting to the point of taking any Prada's!!

I know me too..I think this item was very popular on the Saks online sale thread..I was so close to getting it too..At 3 am I was checking it out at 40% off I din't care anymore about the additional 50..but Saks.com kept crashing and it kept giving me an error with my card..Then before I knew it it was GONE! The only thing I scored from this sale is a Gucci Hysteria over the phone. I'm very disappointed..

The pink one was sold out by the time I FINALLY was able to get to my cart. It went for $570 too. I feel your pain. Let me know if you find it anywhere. I wonder who actually got it!!!
