I haven't seen any reviews of my bags found at the outlets so far so I'm glad, but if it is, it wouldn't affect me as much because I had gotten as much of a discount if not more and, because I don't have an accessible outlet
The issue of LE bags, however, I think is a legitimate complaint.
The LE thing is false advertising if you ask me. Other companies (not all) DO put out real LE things.
IMO, the only way to get a genuine LE item is if the item is numbered. That is the only way you will know for sure that it is LE. If it is not numbered, I consider it just like everything else...and will pay/not pay accordingly.
Just my 2 cents.
I thought everyone knew that this is always a possibility by now. I very RARELY buy FP. When I do I tell myself that I'll bite the bullet IF the bag ends up at the outlet.
My concern here is I did check out your other post. Are you wanting a price adjustment or another bag???
If there were other of these bags available when you purchased yours did they try and find you a better one? Did you ask?
If you purchased the bag at the FP boutique I'd take it in to return it, when they ask why TELL THEM.
You also MUST REMEMBER just because 1 or 2 of these bags has ended up at the outlet DOES NOT mean that there are going to be tons!!! They also may verywell be worse then yours in wear!!!
All things to consider. The ONLY 2 bags I remember not making it to the outlet were the black tattoo tote and the inlaid blk patent Peyton. Thank goodness I bought them both at FP but was prepared for the "outlet hit." I knew I didn't want to run that risk so I bought FP!!!
