I am going to soon be on the hunt for a Quilted Bay, preferably in Camel. I was just wondering, will it be hard to locate one on sale? How many of you ladies nabbed one in a sale? How many paid full price? You don't have to tell me exactly what you paid, I am just curious to see if I will be able to get one at a less than retail price. TIA!
Quilted Bay hunt

I used to have
seven quilted Bays, but four of them have since been re-homed.I got two of them (Jade Patent and Noir Patent) at sale price from LVR at around the £600 mark. My Moka was a sale purchase from a boutique in London called Koh Samui and I think that cost roughly £500. I paid full price for my Noir ,Pigalle and Argent versions which were all in excess of £800 
ush: and the Blanc version was purchased new from a fellow TPF'er via eBay and cost very nearly full retail. Goodness that really is a mind-blowing amount of money to have spent on bags when you put it all down in writing 
.Lots of the other TPF'ers got their Bays at really good sale prices. I think the US stores seem to do much better deals than their counterparts in the UK. I'm sure you will be able to get one for less than retail, but do be careful about buying one on eBay
as it seems to be constantly awash with Bay fakes 
.
Tag, are you sure...????
Seven Bays...?????????
I can´t believe it...I hope you´ll have a very big closet.
Sorry, I´m only joking.
Yes, it's true
. I was an obsessive Quilted Bay collector at one point...but a spate of financial embarassment
plus a new interest in Heloises
put an end to it. I now only have three QB's left... the Noir, Moka and Argent.Yes, it's true
OMG! In a few months you are going to own a similar collection of Helis...Six, seven...?
.ITA... Tag is a true collector...OMG! In a few months you are going to own a similar collection of Helis...Six, seven...?

No chance
.I'm very happy with the two I've got . I'd never say never, but I think I've learned that even when I have a huge collection of bags I still end up using the same two or three in rotation and there's no point just having a wardrobe stuffed full of hugely expensive bags if they're not going to get used ush: ( thank goodness Chloe bags more or less retain their price when you sell them on 
).ITA... Tag is a true collector...
...well I WAS a true collector before a) I ran out of money and b) I realised that the collection had got slightly out of hand
.No chance
Anyway, you have a pretty nice Chloe collection: 3 Bays, 2 Helis...
Anything else... :shame:

.Funny you should use that term LYM. I have rockstars on the brain
at the moment. Went to see the Martin Scorsese Rolling Stones concert movie ('Shine a Light') last night. Mick Jagger is STILL the Numero Uno consumate rockstar 
at 64 years old...amazing ...but I bet I'm more of a rock star 
than him in the handbag department though.

Thanks for the info, wish I had half of your old Bay collection... or even 1/7th of it lol. It's so funny- I really wasn't crazy about the Bay. But I saw a Camel QB on a lady last week and nearly fell on the floor staring at it. So now, I had better start watching the sales!!!
