I tried to find the previous post from last Fall (Nov or Dec) but from the sounds of it, it was a LONG line and a lot of older model shoes that were cheaper on B & G or from SFA. I think there were a few good scores, but not enough to make a special trip to NYC. (I had seriously considered trying to attend the last one, but was relieved when I read the members post who attended) BUT it may be different this year:nuts: Please report if anyone attends:yes:

BF's office is on 49th, and I usually meet him there for lunch. I will try to drag him there ;), but if not, I'll go alone. I looked at DCandy for more info. but could not find it. Does anyone have the link?

Anyone else going?

Robyn -- Great memory. I went to the JC sample sale last fall and was one of the people who posted about my experience on here.

It was not worth the trip! I got there early and waited close to an hour and a half to just get in. The prices were not much less than the sale prices at the boutiques and department stores. The selection was extremely limited. The had the same few styles left in a few colors. The handbag selection was horrible and it did not include the current styles like the Ramona, Riki, Mahala, etc.

This is only worth the visit if you can get in during the pre-sale events. However, I think you need to be a JC employee or press to get in.
