Saks was running a 30% off sale on select items, which surprisingly enough included some 2jours bags, not all the colors though. I originally bought the dark blue, but returned when the amethyst became available.
To my knowledge, the sale is over. And the amethyst color is all but sold out everywhere. However, if you are not in a hurry to acquire the bag, I would wait until another sale comes up at saks. I stacked the 30% coupon, a $75 coupon that I received in the mail, and qualified for a saks promotion of $100 bonus gift card... All in all quite a steal.
I was also following rue lala, which was selling 2jours for around 1699 if I remember correctly. I would check them as well. Hope this helps.
