Over the last six months or so, I've purchased a few Kate Spades from the store website and a couple from ebay; however, there are no Kate Spade stores or outlets near me, so I've never been to one to see what they have to offer...compared to the website. I have noticed, however, that the website by no means offers the stock variety that I've seen in the department stores...I don't know if that is usual or not. I really like the nylon bags in different colors; however, I've heard her nylons are being phased out, and I only rarely see a black Sam or Messenger offered on the website; however, there seem to be a lot of Erins and Pias (new!) on ebay, as well as red Sams (I'd love one of those...), Claires, etc. Sadly, KS customer service is of no help regarding why this is. So, I'm wondering if KS only sells these nylons in the stores or outlets? If anyone who has visited a store or particularly a KS outlet could share what you've seen lately in the way of nylon bag stock (name of bag and colors), I'd really appreciate it. I may be visiting the Charlotte, NC store in the future, so would be interested in knowing what that location has to offer if anyone has ever been there. Thanks a bunch...I'm a newbie here!
