No. In fact today I was at Woodbury. There were 2 bags in particular that I instantly put down because they were MFF. My day wasn't a total lost since I found two boutique bags.
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.
