I'm not a big fan of the KOP H store now that the SA I was building a relationship with left for the west coast. Every time I walk in there, the SAs always seem to be too busy to help. As for inventory, they will normally have Evelyns available either on display or in the back, just ask if you don't se it on display.

I wouldn't make the drive all the way to KOP from Long Island. That is a longggg drive. Why don't you try Madison or Short Hills? I was at Short Hills yesterday and there were plenty of Evelynes on display.
Since you haven't tried the Evelyn on for size, I'd either go to Manhasset, NJ or Manhattan.
The sales tax may vary a % point or so, but you want to see the bag up close & personal..

I am in the KOP store quite a bit and know everyone there. The store is small, but friendly. If ou are buying a bag to save a bew bucks , I don't think gas and tolls would be worth the drive. Saving 2 % on a 5k purchase is only $100. You will spend that in gas and tolls , not to mention time..
That said in August the KOP mall will have a Luxury pavilion, Cartier , Hermes, LV, Prada and the like will have their own area . I can't wait!
If you do want an SA rec, pm me.

Revival Consignment in Roslyn had a couple of Evelynes last time I was in. They charge as much or more than retail but if you're just going to try out sizes, it's worth dropping by. Also, don't forget Wall Street. They're not open on weekends but they're always friendly and have inventory.
thanks everyone! i went into manhasset and was able to try on both sizes of the evelyne! still torn which size to get though...[emoji18]
I was in Vegas earlier this year and met your SA. She now works in the Bellagio store. she was very nice compared to the standard Vegas SA.
she was my KOP SA as well, and she was always really helpful. i actually just received a bag i first mentioned probably about 2 years ago, so she's certainly good on her word. throughout my time with her, she was always really responsive to email as well.
my new SA at KOP is very nice. we'll see if she offers me as many goodies.
i wish manhasset was my local store. the SA's there are sooooo nice and down to earth. the store also seemed to have surprisingly good stock when i was there before thanksgiving.
Hey! Kinda glad I found this thread as I am from borderline Li New York and I drive down to KOP. I have literally driven down to buy a leather bag not B/K Bc they were so helpful in finding the exact color I wanted. I am really racking up my purchases there because they are so so kind and helpful. Plus I have family who live in the area. Everyone's right in it cost $100 to drive there and 2.5 hours, not worth the savings in tax unless you drop 1000+ in belt shoes RTW.
I don't find the manhasset location to be friendly at all, nor helpful. Likely Bc many wealthy folks shop there. But the stock is very good. Madison is a hit or miss, but I dislike taking the train over even 5min ><! (I prefer driving). I dislike short hills, as I was peeved by 2 SAs there just asking for regular silks.
Long story short, I live unusually close to two boutiques (dual residence), but drive 100miles to KOP Bc they are the bomb.com
