Coach Factory Online Sale Discussion Thread

I am so tempted to get the bandit 39 in the chalk or dark turq - I have it in oxblood and love the feel and drape of it - even when full the strap feels good on my old bones - I want one that looks more summery - I wear a lot of turquoise and live in Florida - do you think it will go even cheaper on the next sale or if this will be it? Does anyone have the bandit and love it like I do?

I love my Bandits! I have in several colors. I think they will go down further. 50% and another 15% isn't that great a discount if these bags have been sitting as long as they have. They need to be like 70% off and then another 10 or 15%! Unload them, Coach! We're waiting!

The dark turquoise is kind of a funny color. I wouldn't call it turquoise, honestly, but I can't find a good description of it either. I didn't like the yellow strap on the side from the pouch and switched it out with the pouch from the black bandit w/ tea roses. Then I liked it a lot more! That's what I like about my Bandits....I can switch out the pouches to create different looks.

I love Coach's chalk color but it is my least worn color because of color transfer. Have you considered the melon color? I think that would also be a good FL color and even complement the turquoise you wear. They are all good so you can't go wrong!

I notice that sometimes they show up on the on-line sale again - and I also see the SOLD OUT items appear on the on-line sale again - sometimes they do not show up in the next sale but about 3 sales down the line - so strange

Sometimes cheaper - sometimes not - sometimes more - Coach is nuts

thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I might pick up another if the discount increases. I like the melon and I like the navy.

So, here I am, having bought a beautiful Cooper last sale, waiting for my new Rogue on its way from this sale, and I stroll into the boutique near where I live in Boston to show off how nice my rhinestone star charm that I bought during the Mother's Day sale looks. They all greet me enthusiastically, because they know I'm a sucker...I mean a Coach devotee, and they tell me to come in Monday and Tuesday for the VIP customers' early access to the Summer Sale. Oy. My bank account can't win. Anyway, here's the charm:

Congrats! It looks great with this bag. I've been eyeing this charm as well. Super cute.

Thanks, but I can't buy some more at the Summer Sale. I can't. I can't
I can't.

Ugh.....purple dreamer arrived all smooshed, scratched, and overall sad looking

Oh, no. That's awful. I guess you'll send it back?

 

[AstridRhapsody]

Oh, no. That's awful. I guess you'll send it back?

Yeah, I think the scratches are too deep to fix.

 

[barskin]

Yeah, I think the scratches are too deep to fix.

Oh, I feel for you. Even if you can get your money back, you wanted one - and expected a decent one.

Doesn’t it seem like all too often, people buy a new bag, when it’s delivered it looks used- no packaging, scratches etc. Why can’t they have a subsection for the returns. They aren’t new. It’s one thing if the person doesn’t take all the packaging off and use the bag for the month until they have to keep it or return it. But when it comes back looking like it’s been rode hard and put away wet- no one should be expected to pay full price- even the sale price.

This baffles me too. Does Coach accept obviously used returns? There are so many ways to avoid this problem.

So I stuffed the bag as full as possible and have conditioned it twice, it has regained its shape pretty well. The major lumpiness and some scratches are gone but the deep ones will never come out. Debating if I should call and see if they will send me another one.
