Mansur Gavriel Sample sale advice

[Beth24]

MG just announced a sample sale in LA. Was wondering if anyone who went in NYC had any advice? Do they replenish the bags or do you need to go first day? Was trying to avoid waiting in a really long line but maybe that’s unavoidable?

The first day of a sample sale the line is usually long but you might luck out if you can go at what I call off peak hours around 2 to 3pm. Most people have not gotten off work yet. They might restock the next one or two days later price reductions sometimes third or fourth day after the sale has started this depends on how well the merchandise is selling.

Thanks. I’m heading over now so I’ll let you know.

Please let us know what there is and how long the line is

Please let us know what there is and how long the line is

The line wasn’t too bad. About 20 minutes. When I left there was no line. They kept bringing out bags from the back while I was there. The patent and fabric bags were 70% off. Calf, suede and tumbled leather were 50% off and vegetable tan 40 off. There were a lot of bags. Most styles...

Any circle bag on sale?

What kind of payment did they accept? Cash and card? What style bags did you see?

Does MG not have their boxes anymore? I purchased via the latest sample sale. I received the package but it did not come in the box, did they stop supplying boxes or is it because it was purchased via sample sale?

I think there were some there.

They accepted cash and cards. They had most styles...the discount varied based on the type of fabrication. I wish I had had time to go back a second time to see what else they put out each day.

They packaged all their bags in dust bags--no boxes. I am assuming that was a sample sale thing, but I really don't know for sure. I haven't ordered directly in quite a while.
