Hey everyone! I am interested in a few bags at the boutique right now. I know Coach has sales and while I would pay full price I'd rather not. How long does it normally take for bags to go to the outlets? Are there some styles that are only sold exclusively at the boutiques? I'm loving both sizes of the tatum right now and also the dakotah. I'm not sure if I should just pull the trigger now. I don't want to miss out on those beauties.

Not sure if those are going to the outlets... not every style goes there. You might be better of trying ebay. They're selling new ones there for hundreds off the retail price.

Thanks so much! I don't mind paying retail if I knew they weren't going to end going to the outlets in a few months. I was hoping all of you seasoned shoppers could give me some tips. Either way those gorgeous bags will be mine.

I don't think they will be at the outlets. I think your best bet is buying them on sale via Bloomingdales, Macys, etc. It's gonna take work and persistence. If love them, might be easier to get them full price.

Check department stores. They often have sales even on very new styles. You should be able to get at least 20% off, unless it is a Coach exclusive.
 
I agree, i would try a Department store, as for the outlet that has become extremely difficult to judge what they will receive, doesn't seem to be any set game plan for what they get.

It seems like Coach sends some of their Full Price bags to the outlet more frequently...
In years past, if you saw a bag at Coach store, it would be in the outlet 3 to 4 months later. Now, the outlets seem to get the FP deletes within like two months. I have noticed that some bags seem to "disapear" from Full Retail and then show up at the outlet a year later... (ex. some of the Kristin line)
Depending on the bag... like our fellow Coachies have said... you might have a better chance for getting a bag on sale through the department stores..

Good Luck!!!
