I noticed the botkier "chatter" has gone down significantly over the past few months on tpf. I have a Botkier clyde which I still love to death, but is the brand "over"?
Is Botkier over?

I wear my Clyde bag with pride too! It doesn't really matter if it's still hot or what not! 
In fact, I like it esp. when I don't see every other girl on the street carrying it!

Hehehe I totally agree! And NOTHING can beat Botkier's yummy leather smell!!
I sold my medium Luxe Trigger months ago.

I much prefer not seeing everyone and their grandma carry a bag I have. Exclusitivity is a great thing IMO.
I can't wait till Botkier has their sale again. I'll probaby pick something up from the website.
I think they are wonderful bags. I had a Clyde and sold it, the size was not what I need. When there is another sale on the website, I will be looking at a Trigger.
The board runs in cycles, too. About a month ago, every other post was about the Darel bags, and now that has died down. Chloe and Balenciaga seem to be white hot now. I say wear your Botkier with pride!

In that case I'd say eBay is probably your best bet. I know, I know, we all hate having to dig through endless pages of fake bags before finding a few authentic ones.....but (from my experience) most of the Botkier bags on eBay so far are authentic -- of course not all....you do have to do a bit of research, but the fake Botkiers (so far) are generally pretty easy to spot....so ask for lots of photos, double-check the seller's feedback, and you can get a good deal on authentic Botkiers on eBay.

Had you posted this a few days ago, I would have been able to offer you the Cognac Luxe Trigger I had on eBay! I just sold it, and mailed it today.
I definitely don't think that Botkier is over. We do go in cycles here, in terms of what people lust after. It's a great bag in general - very functional. And, the new Turbo Triggers are super soft! Good luck!
