Coach Factory Online Sale Discussion Thread

I have started looking at other brands. Again. I was checking the coach online outlet sale religiously since I knew the rogues had been discontinued. But I don't like having Coach insult my intelligence with these pricing and availability games. This time of year is a GREAT time to get Proenza bags, as they have their semi annual sale, so if I buy a bag it will most likely be there. But like you said, I need another bag like a hole in the head.

I will continue to enjoy my Rogues that I already own, and check on ebay for my holy grail bags every so often. Coach really needs a new marketing department. :confused1::shocked::yucky:
They need more than a marketing department. They need a business person and an IT department.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees this. Aside from me not liking the younger styles, this was also why I stopped buying coach for a while. The grey rogue I ordered on cyber mondsy went from retail $950 to retail $750. So even the full price is arbitrary it seems. The Sale price works out to be the same as I paid even though it is on deeper discount now cause I got a better rakuten cashback, 30% off the extra tag and a free USB keychain. But it's so weird that 4 days ago my bag was supposed to be $200 more retail. I think this whole fluctuation and factory outlet model is doing themselves a disservice. They will never be seen as a proper luxury line. No one will ever want to pay more than $500 for a coach bag ever again at this rate. It's not whether I can afford it, but purely principle!

I completely agree with you @sexycombover. I buy premier bags usually, and I come in and out of buying Coach, but I always leave because of the pricing games. Even though I only buy at online outlet prices now or on ebay at online outlet prices, I still get annoyed at the pricing games. I can afford premier but would never pay full price for a Coach becuase that bag's real price is not full price. The real price of ANY Coach bag is 60% off, which is what the bags go for at the outlet on most days.

ironically, my coach items yield me the best return when I resell. I'm saddest about not being able to resell my MJ bags (my previous love) for even over $100 sometimes when I paid over $500. But Coach, I can get about 80% of what I paid for it typically cause I only buy them at monster sale prices. Well. We'll see if I end up keeping this Rogue. It just shipped. I'm slightly bitter about the price drop and not sure how I'll feel when I get the bag.

They are not. I saw them in person and still on the fence. I have too many sequin pieces from Rodarte that I love. Also, considering the sequin Dinky or crossbody.
I caved and ordered the tilly out of curiosity. I really regret returning the black rodarte courier. I have the rogue, rogue 25, and 1941 clutch in sequins though. If I don't love it instantly in person I'm returning it.

The sequin regular rogue is beautiful but too intricate for my lifestyle. I'm afraid my abuse would ruin the leather sequins. :P

It's actually held up great!! Makes me regret returning the black rodarte courier even more, I thought it was too delicate at first. I'm selling my grey sequins courier though because I don't carry grey bags often. I really seem to prefer a black bag with the leather sequins. I carry my sequins rogues in any weather but not my python/snakeskin/haircalf rogues. While doing my last purge I actually debated between selling my black python rogue or the sequins, sequins won and stayed lol. I have far too many black based rogues so some need to go.

I have a black whipstitch Rogue 36 and I just got a regular black Rogue 1st generation with the grey python handles. That's all the black I intend to purchase.
