Sample Sale Report: Botkier November 2012

IMAG0014IMAG0015IMAG0016
Last night I stopped by the Botkier Friends and Family sample sale to moderate crowds and plenty of bags as low as $50. I have been a longtime fan of Botkier handbags thanks to their lightweight nature and great design. I've witnessed the transformation from slouchy downtown cool to a simpler and more refined elegance and I'm still a fan.

Anyways as for the sale, it was held at Botkier headquarters in the showroom itself so it is a much smaller space than previous sample sales. The sale is set up into 2 rooms with many shelves of merchandise in addition to tables. The first room contained mostly stock while the back room held the one-offs and samples. Here I spotted mini pouchettes in metallic and camo print for just $50!
IMAG0025IMAG0027IMAG0028

In the sample section I also spotted a couple of my personal faves at reduced prices including the Eden Mini Satchel in pretty pastel color block for $125, the Valentina shoulder for $100 in pewter and the Valentina Satchel in oxblood for $150.  I personally love shopping this section for a bit of a discount and a chance to pick up a bag in a unique color that may have never been manufactured.

As for the stock, quilted wallets are $50, Valentina wallets and coin purses are $85 while you can even snag a crossbody for $85.
IMAG0009IMAG0010
Smaller bags like the Calie envelope clutch and Calie/Carter crossbody as well as the Valentina shoulder are now $110. A great price for a rainbow of lovely little purses. Certain shades of the Valentina shoulder are $125 as well as the Venice crossbody and slightly larger bags like the Scout Crossbody, Marlow Crossbody and Kenya Satchel.
IMAG0011IMAG0012
For $150 you can score the Lucy crossbody or Jackson small satchel while $175 will get you a Lucy Shoulder or Eden Satchel or Venice Satchel. You can also snag your share of Rae convertible clutches, Aldyn Satchels and Valentina Satchels in fashion shades for $175.

On the top end of the spectrum $195 will score you a Misha clutch, Blair  satchel and Eden small satchel in black. For $230 you can grab a Kent shoulder, Brando satchel and Adele satchel as well as more Valentina's in classic colors as well as textured lizard look.  The sale tops out at $295 for the Blair satchel and Eden Satchel in black.

So to note, in general the larger the bag, the higher the price in most cases. If you are looking for classic/basic colors expect to pay a little more. I personally think that in general most merchandise is priced very well at $175 or below compared to previous sample sales. Shop early for the best selection - especially if you're aiming for a sample although past experience tells me that they re-stock these throughout the sale so you never know what you're going to get.

On a side note this sale also had shoes, but they were a bit tangled together on a table and I didn't get a great look at them except to note that the couple pairs I picked up just happened to be size 37 :)

Sample Sale Report: Botkier, May 2012

IMAG5694
The Botkier Sample Sale is amongst the small handful of sales I make sure that I never miss. If you get there early there is no telling what sort of delicious gems you can unearth on a sample table or what purse from stock is going to suddenly steal your heart and open up your wallet. Since I’m currently on the job hunt I am fighting myself against running over tomorrow morning to snatch up a few beauties.

Thanks to the wonderful folks at 260 Sample Sale I got to have a peek inside the sale tonight before the crowds are sure to attack the perfectly laden tables.
 IMAG5669IMAG5670IMAG5671
As per usual there is a photo pricing guide posted on walls that take you from $125 for smaller pieces like the Evans Clutch to the Turner iPad Case to Charlotte Crossbody. $150 will take you into the slightly larger Nicola and Stella clutches and the Leela Satchel.

IMAG5673IMAG5674IMAG5675IMAG5672IMAG5676IMAG5677
For $175 you can get the 2 tone Phoenix clutch or the covetable Misha iPad Case. $225-$250 will get you small satchels, totes or shoulder bags. I am personally a huge fan of the Eden Small Satchel. $250-295 you can snag the full size satchels and hobo bags. At the top end of the price spectrum $375, you can get the Eden Hobo in select colors and Turner Weekender.
IMAG5678IMAG5679IMAG5680IMAG5681IMAG5682IMAG5684
If you are interested in Small Leather Goods there is a selection by checkout that indicates all stock pieces are $75, however there are several samples amongst the mix and I spotted $15 pouches, $25 wristlets and $50 wallets.  Perfect for gifting.
IMAG5688IMAG5689IMAG5693
As for the shoes you can get an AMAZING bargain at all flats and sandals are priced at $50 while all pumps and wedges are $75 – but the catch is that all the shoes are pretty much a size 7 save for a few that are tucked away in boxes.  The sample shoes upon closer examination are even less than the price listed on the sign and I spotted snake pumps for $35 and sandals for as low as $25!  These are beautiful shoes with leather soles!  It had me wishing I was a size 7.

As for true one off samples – the real reason I make sure I get to the sample sale early – they are plentiful.  2 tables are full of them and ready to go.  Prices as marked on attached tags.  The good news?  Staffers have 6 boxes of samples that they will be pulling out as samples disappear so you never know what you are going to get and may want to check back frequently.  Here are a few of the styles I spotted below:
IMAG5704IMAG5695IMAG5696 IMAG5697
Prices are a bit higher for samples compared to previous sales but the bags are also more structured than they once were.  On the low end I saw a patent crossbody with “distressed” damage for $30.  Lovely tone leather crossbodys for $125 and a Leon small satchel in black pebble leather for $200.
IMAG5698IMAG5699IMAG5700IMAG5703
Nicola Satchels were available in a variety of shades from pale lemon, mint to caramel were $175 - I think this would make a great everyday bag.  A fringe purse was $175 while metallic Bianca bags were $150.  A studded padlock bag was now $100 while a version of the Misha Satchel was $200.

As always shop early for best selection.  If you're a size 7 shoe - you're in luck.  If you are a Botkier handbag lover like myself - you're in heaven.

Who: Botkier Sample Sale
What: 50%-70% off all handbags.  Caravel Satchel was $575, now $180. Phoenix was $575, now $295, Turner $575, now $295.
