Yes, they were doing the 30% off sale on sale items in-store for the same period of time. I think there's a tiered sale going on now because I received a card for it from my SA last month. It's also possible that the bag you like may have gone to outlet since it disappeared from the site, so it's also worth giving them a phone call and providing them with the item number to see if it's available there.
Agree with the bolded part, KS are never ones to play games and most of the staff will always try to locate a bag even if it means ordering it from another location. In addition if it's an item that kept going in/out of stock it's most likely to do with people adding it to their cart but not checking out.I am so sad you werent able to get your bag on discount!
I would say you just had bad luck. I've never seen the website play games like that. If Kate Spade didnt want to sell the bag at the discount, then it would have never been marked on sale in the first place. I have seen items go in and out of stock multiple times over the life of an item. I feel KS must be pretty diligent with getting returns relisted as in stock. I always leave out of stock items in my cart to see if they return. I even followed an item through this last sale watching it go out of stock and back in stock and out again before deciding to stop following because i didnt want it.
Most likely, other people were waiting for a % off sale and were just lucky to find the sale as soon as it started, the bag sold out, and then later someone(s) returned the bag.
I agree with reginaphalange about calling a store. KS sales people have always been extremely friendly and helpful. Most of KS sales are both in store and website. This last 30% off sale was in stores and website. Sometimes in store will have a slightly better sale that isnt advertised online or by email.
Not really sure what to expect in the coming months as I haven't gone to my local store in a little while. They do have new collections frequently which arrive at the beginning of each month though! You could call and ask if the have the colour you're interested in as part of next month's collection.
Their new collection is up - lots of floral, pinks, and reds. Unfortunately there's nothing I love from the February collection, I'm seriously beginning to fall out of love with the brand. My last purchases were in November I think and I still haven't posted pictures, maybe I'll do that later!
I think it might be discontinued since I saw it at the outlet in a section with a few other wallets/slgs that were transferred from specialty.
. One of the things I love about Orlando (besides lots of great food, theme parks and the beautiful weather) is the outlets! Hopefully I won't break tradition and will come home with at least one lovely KS item
I'm so sorry for the late upload, I couldn't find the thread where I said I'd post, I thought it was in the TB forum [emoji85] Here's comparison pictures including interior shots of the TB wallet that looks like the Cassidy alongside the Kate Spade Darla@reginaPhalange - Thanks for the heads-up pertaining to the KS Cassidy style being seen at the outlet. Yes, please - photos of the identical wallet by Tory Burch in saffiano leather without any embellishments would be greatly appreciated!
The photos are very helpful!
