I had emailed Coach about the May PCE and they replied saying Boroughs were included. But my SA said not. Wanted to get the grey/blue town tote!

I have never bought multiples of any bag before, until the mini Borough! Even then I am late to the party having only got them on Mothers' Day! But thanks to Winthrop44, I did get two of them at Lord & Taylor, saving 25%, thanks again!

Could not resist the mini black Marabox I saw on eBay which looks fine, but it has a strange additional small fabric label which my other two do not. Have submitted photos on the Authenticate thread and hoping for some comforting news.

Love the design and apart from the minis and the town tote, I'm sure I can justify a large pebbled black for business travel.....

Really? wow, I used my PCE to get a couple things but really wanted a Borough as well. I went to a couple stores just to be sure it was NOT included and it was not just a particular store or SA that wasn't applying it...I guess it was good, as I ended up ordering not 1 but 2 ( warm grey & stripe b/w) from Macy's, both with 25% +20%!! so I'm happy :)...Still, I wonder why there's is so much confusion within Coach everytime there's a PCE going on, everything should be included.

Btw, my stripe b/w has also the extra fabric Coach label :) Congrats in your new bag :)

It was available to order via JAX until about the first week or two in March, but now it's completely sold out and is only available internationally. I don't think it's UK exclusive, it should be available in Asia as well.

Ah, ok. Thanks. I called it UK exclusive because that's what Coach called it when they posted it on their FB page. Doesn't surprise me that they don't know where it's available. In any case...I can't understand why they don't think that would be appealing as a regularly available online item in the US.

Online would have been nice, but it wasn't even sent to the stores-supposedly it had a April release date, but now they're not even restocking it.

Thanks for the tip on the extra label, that was the case on he Authenticate forum too. Feel much better about my black Marabox mini, the workmanship is great so now nothing points to it being a fake.

Congatulations on your fantastic Macy's purchases! I live in Asia and the prices for the Borough in the Coach stores here are a whopping 50 per cent. more than US retail. If you take into account 25% PCE and department store deals, the same item could cost 100% more in Asia. Those of us that hate being fleeced have workarounds but I wish Coach would make their fans lives easier - worldwide!

Would love to buy the remaining black Marobox medium Borough that is still unsold in my local store, and also a micro for my daughter, but I'm not prepared to pay the Asia premium!

My alpine moss medium borough is having the tarnishing issue that has been mentioned previously. For those of you that experienced this, did you send it in for repair? If so, did they fix it? Send a new one? TIA
