I'm hoping the B&M has both the catalog and at least a FEW of the new items Thursday, before I buy on line.<br /><br />Enjoy the visual feast, all!Professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001721142738812038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-42903398062406732462009-11-12T02:14:03.637-05:002009-11-12T02:14:03.637-05:00So they ARE higher prices!

Aarrrrrgh.<br /><br />I was hoping to score one of those (classic) coats for a song come post-Xmas (like last year), but maybe not this season. Oh well. Here's hoping they up their inventory at least so it isn't slim pickings in mid-Dec.Instantdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05807157438529259240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-12546494983545208232009-11-12T01:38:23.405-05:002009-11-12T01:38:23.405-05:00J.

Crew may be doing the right thing for business in the short run because limited inventory and few sales means customers buy things as soon as they see them but playing inventory games will eventually frustrate people and turn them elsewhere, ESPECIALLY because of the quality issues. I know everything is a layering piece, but is it too much to ask for a sweater that's not a 1/3 nylon, super thin, and waiting to pill the minute I get it home?! Or a coat that doesn't feel like it was made from dollar store felt?<br /><br />That being said, I'm glad J. Crew still has great signature pieces and I'm even more glad I've shopped there for a few years so I already have a quality double cloth coat, a decent schoolboy blazer, and a few long gone true wool-cashmere blends without all the nylon. I just need a vintage Jackie!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-34618208015082354092009-11-12T00:48:46.831-05:002009-11-12T00:48:46.831-05:00I remember three or four years ago, J.

I have easily 150+ cashmere sweaters neatly folded in my armoire due to sales like the ones at the end of that season. If you timed it right, you could get up at 5:00 a.m., hit the new markdowns and get cashmere sweaters for $60-70. And I bought five coats that year in the $75-90 range. I know J. crew is avoiding that at all costs this year. We've seen their inventories to be pretty limited and that pearl great schoolboy blazer was in the catalog as long as August and it's still full price.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00675063796680537865noreply@blogger.com
