wa sia, all of you so active last night!
Lina,
I was told to include in state taxes as well and taxes are not refunded in US, so if the bag is US$298 then with taxes will be US$300 +, to be about between 20-30% cheaper than Singaproe. I did hear from people that LV has their leather produced in China but their workmen are in spain and US etc. Certainly US is not half price for Coach, i think. I agree with Cecilia, like for TV which I was looking for, they told me toshiba panel from Japan but assembled in Indonesia and ship to the rest of the world.
Fuschia,
You like the optic range? I just saw my friend's optic shoulder black tote when she collected yesterday. I don't really like it, the design like very messy. She was trying to teach us how to see authenticity in the midst of the messiness. She was so funny, took out few pieces of paper and folded into small pieces like ruler to show us the symmetry Very messy, I don't really like. I still find the signature classic nicer and eye smoothing.My friend got this :

The c are bigger, so not so messy,but I still find it messy.
The tote has smaller c and even more messy.I saw the old one on this website she sent to me where she said she rip photos off from :

Don't know if it's still the same, but designs looks the same.
Oh, the 7874 can fit A4 paper nicely. just nice for A4 size. I don't know why she said cannot lei.I told my A4 clear folder,can put in, just nice. I still feel for tote 7874 is the most classic.
Jules,
I met her with my friend at kovan yesterday. I didn't know my friend made her hold the black shoulder optic tote for 1 month.(so paiseh lei) My friend called me in the morning and ask me to join her over coffee. Hahha, good, then my friend's friend can get the reversible tote through her. Because the reversible tote fly off the shelves so fast. I didn't go Orchard yesterday, but fuschia said it's out within 2 days. I wanted a longer tote, i am about 1.61m, so hb said I have the 7874, why get 8626? True, it's really depends on individual, but I don't understand why the reversible tote is so popular.
Maybe it's something different from the usual design.
Cecilia,
My friend was contemplating between optic white shoulder tote and black shoulder tote, white for that fabric like easily dirtied.
Lilacgal,
I saw the gold one yesterday, eh, nice lei! saw lots of people bheoing her tote walking with her. You getting the gold one? But she showed us the corners of the gold suede and said maint is hard, but nice.
Charcos,
