This post (of weekly posts) is for individual members who are looking for and interested in buying certain items.
Please feel free to
share a J.Crew store location
and/or your outside listing/ auction
site if it matches the requests made
in this post.
If
you are stopped
by a J.Crew store this past weekend
to see what's available (if
anything!) in the SALE, or to see some NEW ARRIVALS
{sigh!} in person, maybe you
might be willing to
share that with us in this post. In
particular, if you could share
with us a few of the noteworthy items
that are available, at what
prices, and potential sizes the
store is carrying (as well as the
store location)- that would be
fantastic!

In last week's "J.Crew's Shipping Method Change {upgrade or downgr..." post, ElizabethM mentioned the following:According to the manager at my JCF store, they are, indeed, planning to go the way of GAP brands and start shipping orders from store inventory. Not sure when it's going to start or if retail will be doing the same, but I'm not a fan either. I've had very bad luck with used and damaged items coming from GAP via this method.Many of you, including Firefighter Wife & WellFedFred (in this post), have already confirmed this news. Lennie (in this post), shares this:
Hi! I spoke to a customer service rep today, and she explained that when an item is sold out online, they automatically are looking for it in a store, hence the items shipping separately. The used to cancel the item and give you the option to find in store, and now they do it automatically. I think it's a great service, provided that items are not "shop worn" as someone else mentioned.While I appreciate that J.Crew is trying to fulfill orders that they accidentally over-extended themselves on, I am not sure if this is the case. A lot of JCAs have reported that they are being sent in-store items. So it sounds like it is more like what the Gap does in terms of fulfilling orders. As I mentioned in the other post, I really had hoped that J.Crew would not go that route. I actually stopped purchasing from Gap and Banana Republic online for this very reason.

This is the weekly "Help Style Me!" post, where we can share items we are having trouble putting outfits together with. Elaine (in this
post) says it best, "You know, that thing you
bought because you love it and you keep pulling it
out and then putting it away without wearing it?"
