I usually carry very dark bags, but I recently purchased the large Sophia in Fieldstone, which is a gray color. How does gray leather fair as far as color transfer? Thanks for any advice.

I've had blue from my jeans rub off on gray. I'm very careful to carry dark bags now when I wear jeans. :cry:

Beautiful color & bag!! Congrats!!

Thanks! :-) Appreciate the reply and I'm looking forward to carrying it, but I'll be sure to watch what I'm wearing.

Just wondering if this is the norm or not? The local outlet keeps the deletes "hidden" in a closet, and you have to ask to see them. Is that weird?

Really? That does sound weird if it's ALL of their deletes being hidden, and not just extras being in a closet. Boxes can come often throughout the week so that they are constantly unpacking and stuff will always be in and out of the stockroom. Plus, the shelves can hold but so much. But, to hide them all would impact sales cause not everyone walks in with style numbers in hand and asks SA's about possible stock in the back.

Not one delete was out on the regular shelves?

I am kind of new to this, but all the bags I looked at (which was quite a few in the regular section and ALL of the clearance0 had the F in the second part of the serial number and no bullet mark.

I only noticed because a lady came in and asked for a specific bag, some sort fo poppy, and the lady said "all the transfers are in here" and then opened up a fixture that was actually a closet. Weird right?

Well, you did hear the SA say "all the transfers are in here" so I guess that's how they do things at that store. You saw them open a closet, so that's not a stockroom with stuff being unpacked like I thought at all, but a place near the registers. Unless that was simply a temporary spot for some new stuff they just got in and they were going to be placed on the floor eventually. I couldn't say. The only deletes/FP items I've ever seen in a closet-like area were items being held for customers. I called about a bag one morning, they had it in stock, and held it till I arrived later on in the day. It was held behind the register in a drawer.

Hey ladies, this its a weird question. I have a new Co worker well, in a different department, that was carrying an Ashley. To break the ice as we have never spoken I said her that her Ashley was cute. She kinda got upset and kept saying it was a Victoria. She had the snap head pink Ashley before. I figure she knew the names. I was wondering was it ever called Victoria?

ive never heard of a victoria before

I have never seen classics or originals are the outlets but it is possible they could get them if they are removed from the stores and Coach.com. I believe that if they have only a small stock left, they will keep it in the warehouse rather than sending it to the outlets, because eventually someone will probably order it. More than likely the Stewardess Bag was only there because someone had returned it. You can return a unused Coach bag even after having it for years, so occasionally you will find something really rare or something that is still available at full price stores.

ive heard if the coach store has any bags left over that didnt sell and new ones come in they will ship off the older style to the factory store. dont know if thats true, just what ive heard.

When we were in the FP store, my daughter showed the SAs where her backpack was broken. It is really minor. There is a leather loop that held the hangtags and it broke. They said that if they sent it in and they couldn't fix it, we wouldn't get it back. We would just get the 40% letter. Then the SA said that they wouldn't fix it because since they no longer make it, they wouldn't have the matching leather.

Since when do they keep your bag if they can't fix it? Doesn't that seem illegal? A 40% coupon is not compensation for them keeping your bag.

i also got a 40% off coupon but i received the handbag back, you should of too!

Has anyone purchased the LARGE BLACK MADISON PATENT LINDSEY SATCHEL? I haven’t seen it in person yet and wonder if it is as shinny as it looks on the Coach Site.
Also does anyone know how well the Patent Leather wears.:D

Im trying to decide if I want patent or just leather.

i havent purchaced a madison bag, but i have a kristen patent leather small handbag and the patent leather is beautiful, i think it looks more exspensive and stand out more and easy to clean.

When a new floor set comes in, they send all their unsold bags from the previous floor set either back to JAX or to a factory store. My SA told me they send them back to JAX and JAX decides whether to send them to an outlet. They don't normally do this with classic bags because they continue to make these styles for years.
