I am trying to conserve my funds, as I'm studying abroad this winter but this temptation is making me think twice about restricting myself. The selection was really just overwhelming. I'm feeling just as happy seeing you girls share your purchases! Btw, does anyone know the price of this little wallet with a special golden lock in the front? It was the one thing I really wanted to snag. I saw some ladies holding onto them, but there weren't anymore for me.

The wallet was $175 i wanted to purchase one of these babies also but i just couldn't see myself doing it, for $20 more I can get a more useful bag! the MAC

Got there @ 4:30 with my boyfriend. We were first in line! Here's my loot: Flatiron Grey MAC, Noir Mac, cobalt Mac, one of a kind MAC & flatiron grey Nikki. Also RM gave out free scarves for waiting in line. There was also wine, sushi, cheese & crackers etc. They have lots of boxes. I looked up to the 2nd floor & there were about 50 large boxes there. So I'm sure they will be replenishing throughout the entire sale. Will post more pics soon.

I love their smooshiness and how they slouch even though they have never been worn

There were about 4-6 when i left which was right before they were getting ready to close shop & go home
there was also a pile of about 4-5 black nikki with gold hardware
In the back of the store there were a bunch of boxes i dont know if they were filled with more bags or they were empty i saw some bags peeking out
also under the tables there were boxes FULL of bags so there could be more.
Im going to head back there tomorrow to see if there are more black i think i will end up buying on before the sale is over!

i just got back home a little while ago. I got in line about 6:15pm; would have been there sooner but I had to stop for my obligatory NYC hot dog with the works, lol. I was about the 25th person in line. It was cold, but fortunately there was little if no wind. Had there been wind, it would have been FREEZING and we all would have been huddling together for warmth! They were nice enough to hand out hot chocolate to everyone waiting in line. They started letting RM Sample sale gals (and guys) in the building about 7:20pm. They let the first 15 or so in, then starting staggering people in relation to the people coming out the door. While I was waiting, I looked in the window and saw something very intriguing resting idly on one of the tables, with plastic wrapping around it. But I thought it just couldn't be so... all these people were walking by it and not picking it up. It was probably just my imagination. When it was my turn to enter, I headed straight for it and I was in complete shock that it was actually what I thought I saw... a glazed sunshine MAM! I immediately picked it up and started walking around with it. I was hoping to find one in the MAB size, but they didn't make any. The RM lady who I asked said that they only had enough leather left to make a handful of MAMs and that was it for the leather.

Gray was the hot selling color of the night... whether it be the flatiron or the cloud gray. They had alot of cloud gray henri bags, and alot of purple/lizard trim henris and ruses. Lots of purple patent nikkis, mini nikkis and roses.

I'm exhausted, but just knew you guys wanted to see some pics. Here's the loot that 5C walked away with .

First, the flatiron gray nikki with old brass hardware and b/w lining:

The combo MAC is beautiful!!! It all paid out with the time you spent lining up! Congrats!

[Daydrmer]

The Sunshine MAM will haunt my dreams forever!! I should have gone

[Daydrmer]

I feel like if I go to sleep I'm going to miss something really great on ebay!

There were quite alot of bags on the tables at all times. The RM ladies were constantly replenishing them.... they had giant boxes of bags underneath the tables and boxes piled high in the corner back of the room. I saw just one black nikki with silver hardware; a girl waiting in line to pay had it. It was very pretty. I didn't see any on the tables.

LOL you're funny. I've been looking too, but I don't think anyone has sold anything yet. I feel like most who went tonight are real Minkettes and they wouldn't think to sell so soon after buying... unless they bought with the intention of selling... which I assume will show up later. Just MHO...
