Sounds like everyone had a great experience at the sale and got what you wanted.
I got there a little after 5am and there were already 50 people in line. The line quickly became longer and there might have been 500 behind me by the time the door opened. I was one of the first ones allowed in and had the first pick of all the scarves.
Here is what we got between me and my friend, plus a black on black H bracelet XL.

I got the Piqué Fleuri de Provence 90cm in mauve/jaune d'or/terracotta. I already own it in CSGM in another cw and I just love this design, so decided to get it in 90cm, and in 45cm tooThe 45cm is in marine/vert amande/beige
I also got a Chasse en Inde and a Reves d'Escargots.
The other designs I saw and can name and still remember (I have a bad memory though) are:
Wakoni (I was surprised too)
Mythes et Metamorphoses (Yes... a 2014 Fall was on sale too, but I only saw one)
Monsieur et Madame
Parures des Maharajas (a lot of different cws)
Mythiques Phoenix (in 45cm, I didn't see any 90cm)
Les Sportives (a lot of them)
Pretty sure I saw some Magic Kelly scarves too
You did very well! I love the Pique Fleuri - I have one in CSGM - I forget the CW but it's very colourful - oranges,reds and blues and yellow and then I have a 90 silk in a neutral gray tone. So we're fraternal twins?? Chasse en Inde is another favourite of mine too.
There seems to have been alot of good choices in terms of scarves - I'm surprised about Wakoni, Mythes et Meamorphoses and Monesieur et Madame and Magic Kelly scarves.
Congratulations! Enjoy your scarves and wear them in good health.
Great purchases! I love the spring colors.

glad everyone had a good story! my shopping experience went well, but there was an instance that i got a bit upset this morning ..
i got to the building at 4:45 am (i live 10 min away), coincidentally bumping into the security staff unlocking the main entrance door, so i came right in after asking the staff if i'm allowed to be in.. as i was walking inside to find the room, i saw a little crowd of people lining up outside of the side entrance, and when they saw me were shouting at me to open the side door for them... not sure if they mistakenly thought i was a staff or anything, but i didn't really appreciate their attitude even when i told them to use the main entrance, they were yelling and knocking on the door "open the door, open the door"
i'm not the staff and i'm in no position to make any decisions, sorry, but use the main entrance please... and no one said thank you btw
anyways sorry for the rant, i managed to be the first in line, scored three 90 scarves, two clic clacs (red w/GHW and brown w/GHW) and two ties for my fiance who kindly offered to keep me company until he goes to work at 7 am...
went in at 8:15, got out at 9:30 (indecisive person), and came straight to work, staffs were very friendly in helping us looking for patterns, making suggestions on my choices, providing information, and putting bracelets on my wrist to try... overall very good experience.
Nice!

Oh, I am so in love with mousselines. And the price is so attractive. Were there any with ivory or white as a main colour? Please, reply "no" otherwise I will really be crying
Thank you for good wishes to my Mom. Unfortunately, at 91 you cannot expect a happy end but I still hope.
P.S. Which one you were lucky to get if it's okay to ask.
TIA
No I didn't see any with white/ivory because I was looking for a similar colour scheme too.
I ended up getting the Soie chevaux de Karnak in blue
Awww take care
