What the hell??? Seriously??? I just opted to use the fb PCE instead of my regular one, because I was away until Sunday afternoon. And I didn't have time to drop by Monday, but there is a return that I am making to partially fund the purchase, so I need to be physically in the store. I asked my SA, and she emailed me yesterday that boroughs can be used on the fb PCE's-if I bring that in, do you think I can make a case about it? My SA even scheduled a meeting time for me on Thursday, which is her off day! This is unbelievable! Why would they resume the exclusion in the middle of another PCE??? If they terminate the promotion, shouldn't they do it after the event, not during???

Seems they would have to honor the info the SA gave you. Definitely take the email in and speak to the manager if you have to.

Agree, changing terms in the middle of the FB event in low. I waited until towards the end of the period thinking I'd want to add a couple of things besides the Borough to the order, but now Coach has lost a big order from me.
 
It is a little nuts...I bought my first two Borough bags with PCE and the next two with multiple corporate gift cards, all of which supposedly excluded the Borough. I don't think it is any attempt at a trick by Coach....it is probably more an indication that an employee or two in the marketing or distribution departments are about to lose their jobs. Any company with thousands of employees has an issue with consistency and following directions, and my guess is a few heads at corporate are rolling over this.
 
New gold/walnut/sun glow has been posted on Coach. My initial reaction isn't "gotta have it". Anyone else?

Love the mini war grey/blue oxford though. Also noticed new tote and they have more pebbled oxblood and silver alpine mediums back in stock.

^Thank you for the notice! I'm interested in ordering that large borough in camel/bright mandarin, provided that they'll honor my PCE on Thursday. Ahem. I was hoping for a camel in a gold hardware, and also for some pop, which the edgepaint gives, so this that one is good for me. For some reason they took the edgepaint down the staging site before this month's update, but with the style number my SA confirmed that it was already available to order from JAX. Is this why the idiots stopped the promotions on the borough, I wonder?
 
Thank you for your suggestion! That's exactly what I plan to do. I just feel bad for my SA, because she's the nicest person you can imagine, and I already told her which items that I'm going to get! She had them all searched out and everything. I don't want to make a scene in the store to embarrass her further, but oh yes a lot of my future purchases are going to be put on hold because of this. Will get the few things that I'd absolutely have to have, and then boycott them altogether. Jesus!! :mad:

I went into the store today to use the PCE on a couple of Boroughs and because I was told on Sunday that they were allowing the discount they honored the discount. My SA said the discount was indeed over but if you were told about it they could still give it to you.

Thank you for sharing your success story! I hope that means they can do the same for me as well ;); keeping my fingers crossed!

They honored my FB pce, and I agree there are a few employees in marketing have screwed up. Hope they get it together before they loose customers..... My store isn't happy about how they did it either, should have changed it after these events.
