Hi all...I've posted a few times in the Coach board, but am mostly just reading and learning. T-Girl, I think you're right about Coach Factory stores, it seems that the boutiques uphold the "luxury" image, but I'm pretty sure that the Factory stores pay the bills!:tup:

As there is a Coach Factory Outlet close to my home, I a frequent shopper. Overall, the quality is very good! Lately I've been partial to buying handbags received from the retail stores only. I recently purchased the Stewardess Bag at 50% off form Coach Factory Online. Love the purse!
 
I haven't been on these threads in forever, although I read a lot! Can someone help me with some abbreviations? PCE? JAX? (I finally figured out CFO as Coach Factory Outlet, also written above.)

Just registered recently at the CFO site but have not been "officially" invited to a sale yet, but have stumbled onto two of them (the last one, really frustrating, missed the Molly but a hair!)
Thanks!

JAX = Jacksonville
PCE = preferred customer event

Thank you! Why does Jacksonville keep popping up? Something special about that location or is it a special outlet or something? Appreciate the info. ( I was going to guess Private Coach Event for PCE... close!)

And how do you get the extra 25% off codes for the online sales? I haven't looked at Coach in forever & am finally coming back to them... They've put out a lot of really nice stuff lately, to their credit. But now I have to find the coupons and deals that you all already know! Thanks again!

JAX, short for Jacksonville, FL is the central Coach warehouse where fulfillment of all orders for inventory come from. As for getting PCE, in the past you had to make some type of purchase to be placed into the Coach database and then at PCE time you would be flagged as PCE elibible. Coach is currently transitioning so it is not clear as to whether or not PCE's will exist any longer but what is clear is that Coach is transitioning to semi-annual 30-50% off sales of its old merchandise, the first beginning 6/6 - 6/12. The presale period is open by invitation only to some of the former PCE recipients and then open to the public which I think is a good thing because it will allow those formerly not eligible to become eligible. The current plan is to have these semi-annually.

Thank you for such a great and thorough explanation! The irony is that I used to get coach mail all the time and really got away from the brand... They went way off base for a while there with their designs and I lost interest. Now that I'm "rediscovering" them and want the mail coupons.... Nothing!

By the way, can you buy directly from Jacksonville, do you know? People seem to mention it like you can buy from them. Thanks again!

FWIW, this is the first card I've received from Coach so not just former PCE recipients....although I have used the Facebook coupons.
 
Hi everyone, I am new to purse forum and have created an account to try and get some more information on the two purses I am interested in and also to get some input from people who already have the bags. I am currently going back and forth trying to choose between the Coach Bleecker Cooper embossed logo in grey birch or the lil ukita in black by marc by marc jacobs. I loved the lil ukita for a long time now but as I was doing some research on purse forum I stumbled upon the Bleecker Cooper in the embossed logo grey birch and fell inlove. If anyone has either of these bags and can tell me some pros and cons to them that would be great, and if not just some opinions on which bag you think is nicer would also help. Thanks :)
 
funny thing is, the bay did their own pce thingy and coach had the semi annual sale. 20% off all coach merchandise including new arrivals if using hbc mastercard. If items were already on clearance and a delete, a total of 45% off. No idea if it included the boroughs. I like pces because they allow you to get access to new arrivals at a discount.
