Dooney & bourke Disney collaboration part 2

[msmith07101]

I got a slightly different response... sounds like they are not 100% sure they will be able to get them...

Dear Katerine,


"We are delighted to have received your recent email and we appreciate
your interest in DisneyStore.com.

I do apologize for the inconvenience. Upon other problems with this, we
are having to call our vendor to see if we can get them. if we can, we
will send them out. If not, we will take it from there.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have further questions. We
look forward to future opportunities to be of service to you."

This, I think, is the proper response, It has to be on Dooney to get the medallions. Whether they decided to skimp and left them off on purpose or they had a major boo boo when they shipped all these new bags, they need to make good...they being D&B. I don't think Disney has the medallions...these bags are wrapped and covered in all that paper...it's not like the medallions came off or anything. They weren't on these bags to begin with...just my 2 cents. And you know...the whole "we are delighted to have received your recent email" is really so stupid. We all know they are not delighted to get all these emails...especially the ones like this where they don't have a clue how to fix it!

My order from Black Friday finally shipped yesterday. So I am thinking Cyber Monday orders should ship sometime early next week since delivery for UPS doesn't include Saturdays. I am interested to see if Disney is going to notify everyone who ordered the bags about this issue or if it is something each person needs to contact them about and then they will notify us when they come up with a solution. What an odd thing to happen though. My large sketch I received earlier this week did have one attached.

Totally agree...I'm starting with Dooney when my bag gets here. Also got a chuckle about the emails....

I received my Black Friday order yesterday I have never seen any wristlets before and oh, my gosh, they are beyond adorable I got the Wonder wristlet to match my first Dooney, the Wonder tote which I absolutely love The placement fairies must have been looking out for me because I am thrilled with both placements Even the placement on my cosmetics bags is awesome My Wonder wristlet has the Dooney duck and with all the talk about missing medallions, that got me wondering if the Balloon wristlets have the heart My Colette that I ordered on cyber Monday has not shipped so I don't know yet if it has the heart (not really too optimistic after reading here ) On the website all the Sketch wristlets definitely have the heart but the picture for the Balloon wristlet doesn't show the heart But looking up close, there seems to be the leather loop that the heart should be on Has anyone received or seen the Balloon wristlet??

I'm going to ask a question but I want you to know that I'm genuinely curious.

What is the point of the medallion? If my bag didn't come with a medallion I don't think I'd care that much. In fact, I have 3 Disney Dooneys and can't even tell you if they have them or not.

I guess I just don't see the big deal if it didn't come with it. I'm not saying you guys are wrong (esp since it is in the picture), I just don't see it being worth calling and emailing Disney or not using your bag until the medallion comes in. What does the medallion say? Is it just a status thing to have it?

I appreciate the photos so much!! I am 6 feet tall so big bags work well for me. I am glad to see the black balloon print next to the wonder print; that might fit me too. The bigger and brighter, the better. Thanks again!!

Hi! The best comparison have is the Susannah w/ sketch. Sorry for the poor quality pics.

I totally understand that people are disappointed about not getting something they were expecting, especially since it was listed in the description and shown in the photos.

But I have to laugh just a bit because I took the D&B hang tag off my DL55 letter carrier. It kind of got in my way and I didn't think the duck was a good fit with the Disney characters anyhow.

I do hope they get it all straightened out so that everyone who wants the heart hangtag gets it though.



OK, now for the tough part. I have to apologize to pycees312.
I totally led you astray with my answer to your question about the special AP sale. I'm so sorry!

I have a friend who has been to several of the sales and he swears the high end stuff has never been included, until today. He also swears this was the busiest he has ever seen it. Of course, because I decided to go today.

There were some Dooney & Bourke bags in the sale. I'm pretty sure the only collections included were the ones that have been marked down online recently. ie: Wonder, Tonal, Blue Mickey, and Pink Minnie. I have no idea if they had a full range of styles in those collections to start with or not. By the time I made it to the Dooney's all they had left were pink Minnie bags.

The sale was supposed to go from 6:30 - 9:00. We got in line at 6:15 and didn't even make it into the store until 9:10. Honestly the store was so crowded, and everything was so picked over, and the line to check out was so long, that we left without buying anything. So all we got out of the morning was a nice long chat during the 3 hours we spent in line.

BTW, the sale was supposed to be for AP holders, D23 members, DVC members, & Club 33 members, but we never once got asked for ID of any kind. Maybe they checked at the registers? I wouldn't know about that.

Now for the exciting part: the new DL55 styles and balloon bags are starting to show up at DL. I got to see several of them today! I forgot to take my camera though, so no photographic evidence. Sorry.

For me it's just part of the bag...it seems naked without it. And it's the principle...it's shown as coming with the bag...so it should be there.

i agree with you. it has nothing to do with it being a status symbol. i just feel that it is in the picture and that is what i paid for.

And the heart medallion is very cute and adds even more character to the bags...at least I think so...especially on the Sketch pattern. I think we will get them but may need to go through Dooney.

I've been reading the postings about the missing D&B medallions on the balloon bags, and I noticed that all of the bags at the MK today were also missing them.

 

[mlittig]

I wish the hearts came on all the bags instead of the duck I have the duck on my new Mickey Wonder Tote and Wonder Wristlet and it just doesn't make sense to me ~ why a duck I was so looking forward to the heart on my yet to ship Colette

Did you see any of the balloon Margot bags in the MK today? I looked at DtD for them on Friday and they did not have them.

thanks!

Nope, they didn't have the Margot yet either.

I was at the crazy sale at DLR WOD yesterday. I was in line at 5:45. Forgot to look at my watch when I finally made it inside. They had boxes of Wonder totes, some of the Wonder barrel bags. They had a ton of the pink Minnies in both sizes. There were a few of the navy Mickeys, but those didn't last long. Later on, they brought out the Tonal Champsac, I saw several people with those, but I was already invested 1 hr in the check out line, and wasn't giving up my place. These Dooneys were 40% off, plus I got another 20% with my AP. Last year, the sale was only for APs, this year they opened it up to a lot more people and it was nuts. It was supposed to end at 9am. They ended up opening the store to the general public an hour later than planned. They were checking ID (APs, etc) at the door for the first 1000, because they get a gift. I made it in just under the wire. The gift this time was a DLR photo frame. (Past gifts I rec'd were a Vinylmation and a Big Cheese Mickey ears hat.) This sale was really a mess since it was open to almost everyone. Plus APs could bring in friends. I thought last year was bad. It was a piece of cake. Plus I felt the Summer sale had a lot better deals than this one. (They had a very limited amt of Dooneys that time, I only saw some of the larger pink Minnie purses.)
The balloon bags hit DLR Friday at Vault 28 and Disney Clothiers. I was there for a 3 day weekend, and they weren't there on Thursday. They got the black drawstring bag, the black satchel, white Colette and white wristlet. I don't remember if they had the black wristlet. (At Vault 28, they moved the Princess styles to another part of the store to make room for the Balloons.) I didn't look for the heart tags on these bags. I have the Satchel and Margot coming in the mail, so just was paying attention to how the pattern looked in person. I picked up the DL55 bucket purse to add to my collection.
I found the balloon drawstring to be smaller than I thought it would be, but it's still a sizable purse. The strap is slightly adjustable, so it can be made a little bit longer. I really do like the balloon pattern.

disney777, thank you for the TR of the sale. Sounds like there were a ton of people there. Did you hear what time the first few people in line got there?
