Hello to all from Dubai. Last week I discover the Coach x Disney collection in our outlets.
Here the collection is so expensive. It was advertised at 60 off to start with, but no additional discounts what so ever. The starting prices where much higher than the one in USA....So with my first trip I went out with black tote 239 $, then i saw the wallets from the FO with a crazy price of 163$ (this is price at 60% off ?!). I was shocked at the price and passed it, but luckily i move the other section at the shop and saw the Mickey face wallet from the Retail Collection and it was priced at 109$ which was a still and I snapped 2 different faces (one angry and one squinting Mickey). Love them and one will be for my daughter. Then I also saw some hangtags and bookmarks from the retail at 16 so I got 1 of each. I wanted to get few more but could not decide which one to take so I left.
Four days later I went to our second (newer) outlet and got out with a big back pack in black (the full black one same as the tote) for the price of 331$ which was not so bad comparing with the other items.(still much higher then the prices you have in USA). Then I also picked up one make up pouch at 57 $, phone wallet at 67 $ and the studded keychain at 49$. I also got one more hangtag from the original collection with different face on it. I kind of wanted the card holder (very slim one) and a passport case, still was thinking about the coin purse but my conches was saying to leave....Not for long.... I went back to the first outlet and picked up 2 more hangtags for 14.5 $ each (price already reduced) and a penny bag `(not Disney, it was just 80$ at clearance price). Two days after I decided to go in and take that coin purse. so I went in and was shocked to see some saddle bags (red and black small, and big chalk) from the original release. These bags were at the clearance side and I got the big saddlebag in chalk for 244$. Then I add to my collection one coin purse in black for 57$, one corner wristlet red 57$, one hang tag red from the FO collection for 19$ (which mas more than the retail once, go figure) and lastly one keychain with Mickey hand in peace sign, a bit pricy but stilish 45$ and one more original tags at the reduced 14.5 $. I saw the scarf and really wanted it but the price drove me away. It was 109$, crazy.
So now I'm done! I must put my card on diet.....
It is strange that prices here are so high. When I see the sales you have I goes crazy.... I wish I was in USA.
The collection is selling ok here, but I believe not as good as in the USA. Some Items are really overpriced and I think this is a big factor, sopeople are not buying....
