I have the same bag[emoji4]. What did you put inside the bag to weigh it down and does it matter what length the strap is? Thanks

I put mine on the last hole (making it hang at its longest length), added some tissue paper & the dust bag in the bottom & then put a bottle is water (in a ziploc bag) in. I let it hang there for a week, taking it off periodically & throwing it on my shoulder. It's perfect now...just sharing what I did.
Enjoy!

Great deals! I go to Dillard's on new year's day at opening time and it's crazy insane. The crowd at each entrance is about 100 people per door and when the gates open they push through and run. There's teams working together and each person has a cardboard box and they go to the purse table and put the box on the edge and push any and every bag in the box. Then they run to a corner and dig through for the good brands. They basically wipe out the table. Eventually they put some bags back (in any random place not necessarily the purse department) because there's a 6 per person limit and head to a crazy long line. I usually stay far away until the first wave passes lol. It's funny because the SA's have started scattering better brands all over the place vs how they used to put MK all together, Coach all together etc.

That is just kinda gross to me lol I get some people make money by finding good deals and reselling but I dunno, it just feels wrong to me when department stores are meant for consumers not resellers. Glad the SAs try to combat it lol

I hope you are able to find some goodies! I wish I had a Dillard’s near me!

I know I'm always kind of disgusted, but free market I guess. And yes the SA's are good, almost too good because it makes me kind of OCD going through the department and then back and then back one more time to make sure I didn't miss anything haha. I also have gone back 30 minutes before close and found a table once again full of (now beat up) Coach, MK, etc that found there way back from whatever department they were dropped in.

Thanks for the bag training tips everyone! I may do something like this for my spooky eyes duffle and also my Clarkson Hobo. I’m normally a satchel person as I like structured bags so if I can do a “controlled” slouch on these bags I think I’d like that better. This way I can shape them how I like [emoji1]

I’m going to have to decide if I want the openings to fold over like the Bedford pictured above or for it to stay centered and sink down more like a saddle shape.

It’s always a bit sad to see a beautiful bag all beat up from living it’s life on a store shelf [emoji22] lol
