would you buy a made for outlet bag?

I think the new mini Coras and Coras are adorable. If they made these in regular leather, I don't think I could resist. I'm getting tired of all the saffiano.
 
I loved the Penelope collection!
I have had several MFF bags and been very happy with them. And with the new direction FP seems to be going, the outlet is likely to get a lot more business from me. A lot of the new FP styles don't fit my style or budget.
 
Yes absolutely I would. I have a mixture of FP and MFF bags/wallets. I just got a MFF Pebbled Leather Kelsey Satchel the other day and the leather is just as soft and silky as my FP Pebbled Leather Cooper Satchel. The only MFF bag I have seen that I thought looked cheap IMO is the Margot Carryall. Buy what you like whether it is MFF or FP.
 
I have a Coach outlet nearby and have purchased 10+ handbags from them in the past 5 years or so. The quality of the bags is impeccable, and I honestly can't tell the difference between these bags and the one Coach I purchased from Dillard's (retail price) a few years back. As far as resale value goes, I am totally unsure about that. I honestly didn't even realize that there was a difference between the Coach bags sold in the outlets and the Coach bags sold at a retail store.
 
I'll buy an MFF bag if I like it. I don't really discriminate. Resale is never a factor in my purchase. It's all about if I'll enjoy carrying it. Both boutique and factory bags are beautiful in their own way. Love the new hearts line that's MFF.

There is a big difference.
 
The Cora is cute but like with the Rhyder and Borough,I love the long strap but hate the placement. If those satchels had the placement like the speedy B...I would be purse broke!
 
My mum loves Coach and I've bought her a few outlet bags in the past. She loves them and it always seems to be 50% off day at the outlet store - it's a win-win!

The last outlet bag I bought for her turned out to be a Madison... Apparently, they sometimes get the fancier bags at the outlet. I guess this was out of season or something, but the difference in quality was very obvious. This bag is stunning!
