I just hung up with a person at Gucci.com and asked her if they were now selling their bags to Sears or MilanDesigner.com. Her answer was very diplomatic. She said the only legal distributors of their bags is: Neiman Marcus, Saks, Bergdorf Goodman and I forgot the other. When I questioned her again about Milan Designer. She again said those stores were the only legal distributors. So, the next thing we have to do is check out whether or not Milan Designers is legit. They say their bags are authentic but so does the entire universe. It seems they sell their overflow to Sears.com To be continued.
