...I think things would have went a WHOLE lot defferently if she knew I had 3k to blow in my pocket....but that shouldnt matter...
I always thought it was such a contradiction that people working retail act stuck up, cause they're working retail. I went in the Louis store in Rome a couple weeks ago and no one was trying to talk to me, haha, but today went in (Louis in Tysons, Virginia) with a suit on (coming from a job interview) and they definitely try to help then.
when i was younger i would enjoy this
smh.gif
- only getting attention from the guards- then nobody wants to help you....then everybody stares as you tell them the exact name of something for $1500+ and proceed to the counter...then the akward moment happens as they wait for you to pull out that stolen credit card...but instead out comes a bunch of 20s in rubber bands
laugh.gif

that was the scene everytime i had to get my moms something for mothers day, bday, xmas etc when i was younger- now they sorta of know me and i get greeted and helped by everyone-
its whatever...they deal in commission and want to judge books by the cover to make sure they maximize that...if i get some1 who can read people properly they'll know when i come thru i'm spending...

From what i was told
Last season models, excluding anything with the Gucci monagram print.
Last year when i went, all clothing was on sale, and majority of the shoes
i hope your right but speaking to the manager here he said:
-mens shoes hardly go on sale
-mens accessories are a maybe
-mostly stuff from the spring/cruise line
-classic line items here and there

but noone knows for sure until that list drops around the 20th

I understand both perspectives, but yes, you having $3k to blow would make them happy, but they probably see too many non-corporate looking types ALL thetime and 1/10 buy something. They're probably all too willing (sadly) to lose you as a sale as long as they can grab the dude in the suit.

My uncle does commercial real estate, and he often goes to job sites, prospective areas in blue jeans and a tshirt. He never wants the competition to knowhow much $ he has to drop. Makes sense in that regard.

When I bought my whip, I was definitely dressed ok...not super scrub but not my best day either, the salesman took the higher road and was like, wait,you're 24/25, got money to burn, etc, he saw a client for a long time.
 
I get service all the time, going in whith bum clothes and baggy jeans.
Although I did ask for help one time..... too bad I asked the security guard, hah.

Yeah, I notice that most of the stuff on sale at Gucci will be the super expensive exotic materialed bags.
Wouldnt mind checking out the clothes tho.

I hope alot of the clothing is on sale. I wanted to get my dad a Tie for fathers day.
Thanks for the info, hope to hear more
 
^^^ If you want a Gucci tie, just check out Bluefly. They have a great selection, usually 20% off and then there's a $30 or $15 off code out theresomewhere. They also have other brands of ties, like Ferragamo and Hermes.

I just want to know if the Spring/Summer '08 Clothing collection will be included if so there's like and shirt and 2 zip ups I'm beasting for.
 
If there's a Barneys outlet near you, they are having a 50%-70% off. I say it's worth a look if your not too far away from one.

Nope, it's a completely different store. Co-Op store is just their more alternative version of the real Barneys NY, appeals more to the youngerand more casual crowd I guess.

as hot as both shoes are i am seriously in love with the damier chucks and hope to get a pair from hong kong this summer

yeah that's what I'm leaning towards too. They're even more amazing in person

if you get them, please do me a favor. Smell them for me. My pair has this amazing sweet smell to it and I have absolutely no idea why, but sometimes I pull them out to smell them. It's almost like a freshly baked sprinkle cake but not quite but that's the best description I can think of. Or if anyone else has a pair, do yours have this smell? None of my other lv products have ever had this so I found it pretty strange (but highly enjoyable)


haha! will do.

I'm planning on getting the hi's. I regret not picking them up when I was in Chicago last month, probably gonna have troubles finding them now.


Anyways, got these today










bonus:



Nice yo really diggin those my peeps found these for me

How much do these run for? i want these..

i paid like 425 for mines awhile back....wifeys were like 4 even last night...joints are clean
pimp.gif
i wanted the "whites" but they are more of an ivory or bonecolor...def hoping they hit the sale so i can grab another pair to put away but i doubt it since they are part of the "classics" line
