I was in US at the right time again. Coach was on sale. Yeap, it was pretty good sale because some bags were 50% off and others were given additional 30% off. It was a good bargain. I got my poppy design coach, one for my mom and wristlets for my cousins. I tried to snap some pictures but the staff stopped me. 🙁
I went to 3 coach stores, one in Gilroy, one in Petulama and one in Great Mall. Gilroy gave the best discounts. However there were not many choices there. Great Mall has more selections.
If anyone of you wants the Purple Coach Poppy 13843, I am selling this for RM850.00. Shipping & Insurance not included.
I am not a handbag person, meaning I don’t carry handbag. However ever since I knew about Coach Bag, I kind of like the design. Not sure why. When I first saw the coach patchwork design in the Coach KL Shop, I like it very much. However I was rushing to go somewhere and didn’t really buy it there.
I hunt it down and I found one in Ebay. I was really skeptical of getting a branded bag in Ebay because you really cannot trust some of the sellers there. It may be replicas that they are selling. I found one seller who I have a good feeling that she is selling the authenticated one because she gave me the receipt from coach shop, coach tag and what not. By the way I got it 70% off the original price, last year.
The shipping fees were not very costly, maybe the seller misquote. The only problem I faced when the bag arrived was custom. The custom sent me a card asking me to collect the item in Butterworth, the other side.
Fortunately, my FIL knew one custom person to help me. Yes, I did pay a minimum tax on this item. I wonder how people get away from pay tax. It was worth getting it. Until today, I am still using it to travel.
It will be soon that I am going to walk into a Coach shop in US. Let’s hope I can get another one that I like that is in the acceptable price range. I got this for my mom on mother’s day.
This is not a sponsored post but hoping it will be sponsored. :giggles: When I was in US, someone msg me, asking me to check out the price of COACH bag in US. Huh? What coach, sofa ah? Knowing me, I was not in trend with the latest handbag brands as I don’t carry one. The only time when I do carry one is when I am attending a dinner function.
Anyway, this person got me very interested and I found out that the COACH bag is very popular in US and Hong Kong. It is almost like LV, a very expensive piece of accessories. Vien and I went to the factory outlet at Gilroy to take a look, we were disappointed because the bags were not very attractive. The signature was hidden on all the bags. *kiasu look* Hey you want to buy an expensive bag, make sure the brand is in view right.
As we were shopping at COSCO, I was surprised that there was a booth selling COACH bag there, mostly above US200. COSCO was the last place I would see any expensive bags for sale. I was surveying at the SFO and HKG airport, minimum was at least US230. Well, for me, I will not spend so much for a hand bag. At first, if the price is right, I want to get 1 for my aunt.
During CNY, I saw my aunt carrying a COACH, gee it is haunting me again. My aunt told me that my cousin got it for her from Bangkok. Ha! Imitation and it looks like one too.
Finally, I think I almost forgotten the word COACH. A week ago, someone msged me telling me there is a sale and all bags going for 75%. Another temptation, it is like COACH is not giving up on me. So I surfed in the COACH website and with the recommendation from my friend, came up with 2 choices within my budget. Which one do you like and guess which one I am going to buy?
