MCM is trying to make a comeback. They are really amping up their marketing and blogging about Beyonce, The Dream, Omarion, Eva Mendes, etc. currently using their brand. They don't sell online except Saks Fifth Avenue and Wardow and they usually only have a few styles. Here in Munich they are sold at two department stores and one boutique has quite a few offerings. There is an outlet about an hour away from here that usually had really good deals (see my other threads) and I just got a 50% off outlet gift certificate today in the mail 
I have a few but prefer the styles that don't blatantly mimick LV. They do have a perforated speedy/boston in the white canvas with lime or fuschia back drop...gorgeous! I think its refreshing to see something different especially amongst the sea of LV. Surprisingly, I have not seen any website/post of replica MCM so I think the counterfeiters don't even bother with them yet.
I'm headed to the outlet to see if there is something for me to buy half off
One of my big concerns about getting my MCM bags (2nd and 3rd one) was investing in something that wasn't necessarily coveted by the masses. In the end I like the bags and they are worth the price tag.
I have three newer bags, one zippy wallet, and bought my husband a mens wallet. All great quality and unique in every way!

I love that black MCM bag.
It's a great bag...very spacious. I reminds me of the LV Alma but not as "lunch boxy". The leather is very squishy and since it opens on both sides I can get into it. It's on the Wardow site on sale last I checked.
If you are referring to me...I'm working on a 4th! I am headed today to the outlet b/c they sent me a 50% off one bag coupon good only for this weekend. I keep saying its the last time I go but they keep sending more coupons!!! Luckily, at this outlet they have a Furla, Versace, Aigner, Brics, and Tod's outlet too (but they never send coupons

Yeah... coupons are evil because they always make you go back to get more goodies. lol And a 50% coupon??? Where do you get these coupons? That is such a great deal.
I got a 10% VIP outlet coupon the first trip where you register online to get the booklet for all the stores at the outlet. Once I made an initial purchase I got on their customer list and they sent a 50% off for the end of year/new year promotion and one for the Easter/Spring. They sent me a 30% off coupon in early March through the VIP outlet mall program but I couldn't find anything I wanted and even left empty handed. I told the SA's today that this was probably my last trip unless they send me more 50% off coupons!!!
i think it's about the marketing. i've been seeing lot of MCM bags worn on street style and some influential people in fashion and thus creates hype among people
