Two out of three of the leather fobs are on the China site but not the bunny one. The bunny one is the one I preoredered and was told a late date for (April). Thanks for the heads up on the China site,😊
Were you able to order any of the leather fobs? CS says they are showing that it's sold out when I tried.

Nope. I had a preorder for the bunny one, but they cancelled that part of my preorder and just shipped the bunny tote. I was told the bunny fobs will not be available until April or May. I was also told March by a different SA so I am not sure what to believe. I have decided to pass on the leather fobs since I only wanted the bunny one and it really wont go with my bunny tote anyway.:smile1:

I wanted a leather one because its colorful and fun. The character on the bag is cute but it is too massive for me. On the chinese site, I asked my coworker and it just says coming soon. Hmm...
 
As is the case for most luxury brands/ designers, items are produced in limited quantity to create demand and reinforce the fact that items are not being produced in quantities they once were (as is the case for Coach) so it is by design that items sell out at the time of release or in some cases before the release (same for the Snoopy collection). HOWEVER, working with your preferred sales associate gets you around this because they can let you know when products are coming out, products that they think you'd be interested in, and they can place that order for you prior to product(s) being posted online.
I understand economics. I, however, don't understand your rationale.

did you do a search using "baseman" on the coach site? That brings up everything.

I'm curious, how were you able to pre-order when no one else could place an order?
 
I think she was talking about the bunny fob.....no one else seems to have been allowed to pre-order either by phone or in person.

My pre-order for the leather bunny fob was cancelled around Christmas time. They only shipped the tote.

My pre-order for the metal bunny fob shipped on December 29. There were several other members who posted metal baseman fobs that they had preordered and that shipped around the same time. :smile1:

Sorry, my bad.....I should have specified the leather fobs. Those are the ones that Jax nor a lot of SA's can pre-order.

I agree, I think everyone's pre-order for the leather fobs got cancelled.

This ended up working out for me as the fob would have looked silly on the tote anyway.

I ordered the 3 character fob from Colette, and have the metal bunny fob and that should do it for me fob wise. :cool:

Can't wait to see your reveal of the 3 charm fob.....it looks great!

Basically Coach wants to elevate the brand and align it more closely with traditional luxury brands and not the "affordable luxury" category Coach created. ONE of the ways to do that is to produce items in very limited quantities, meaning if you have an effective sales associate they can work with you to make sure you get the items without an issue. It's the same for many other traditional luxury brands. Hope that helps to clarify what I was trying to say :)
