Dooney & Bourke Disney collaboration ~ part 3

I always baby my dooneys. Why would you not? I never put them on the floor. I carry a purse hook, which happens to be the Mouse, and then I hang it from the table. I also have a hello kitty purse hook because i love Hello kitty, also.:love:

Where did you get your mouse purse hook?
 
That doesn't make any sense to me that they would sell ones in outlets for 40% off and yet still be charging full price on the web site? :confused3 I understand the ones that they had already reduced on the web site but ones that are not? It also doesn't seem fair to do that. Does that strike anyone else as odd?


They do it at the parks too.

The first time I saw the pink Minnie bags marked 30% off I figured they were closing out that pattern, but they were back at full price a few days later.

Same thing with the AP sale. I thought for sure they would only be selling collections that were already sale priced. Nope. Colored sketch bags 40% off at the sale one day, full price the next.

Makes it a challenge to find the deals. It's a good thing we have this thread. :thumbsup2

I'm surprised that the bags are showing up at Dooney outlets. Leads me to believe the rumors that the collaboration is ending, but who knows.

Love the placement rejects terminology. I've definitely seen a few of those. :rotfl:
 

Where did you get your mouse purse hook?

I bought mine on ebay but have only seen the one. This gal got it at the park in Japan but said she has never seen them in the parks here. You can get the same purse hook at this website: http://www.bonanza.com/listings/NEW-JAPAN-Disney-Mickey-Mouse-PURSE-HOOK-or-BAG-HANGER/24337768

It is a very sturdy purse hook but a bit pricey. I got it for $49 on ebay from this gal, but this site has it for $60 with free shipping to the US.
If you google mickey mouse purse hook another website has a cheaper one that would work just as well with Mickey on the top but I like the crystals of this one. My sister has the other one I am talking about and it works just as well. Hope that helps. My hello kitty one I found just thru google and it is also crystals and came from Japan but didn't cost over $30 with shipping. It is made exactly like this Mickey one but has pink crystals on it.
 
I was thinking that too but didn't want to say it!

Yikes, I hope I didn't jinx anything by putting it out there in writing. Maybe I should go back and edit my post. ;)


So I went to check out the purse hook, and look what I found while poking around that site:

I thought I was only kidding when I told DH the Kristin tote isn't the type of handbag I like to carry, but I absolutely love the way it looks, so I want one anyway. Maybe I could buy this rack and just display it. :lmao:
 
Went to Premium Outlets in Orlando today to check out what the Dooney and the Disney Outlets had in stock. Dooney didn't have any surprises like the poster from CT reported seeing at her outlet. They just had the patterns that have pretty much disappeared from the parks (a Wonder Tote, tonal Mickey, the pink princess bucket, and a black princess satchel. The Disney outlet didn't have any bags at all this time.
 
Maybe the ones in the outlets are overstock or slightly irregular? Just speculating.

That was my theory too, but the Disney bags I saw at the Dooney Outlet did not have those tags like all the other Dooney bags in the store that indicate they are seconds or imperfect. I'm not sure if anyone posted a picture of one, but a while back I saw some 40th messengers that had the entire back sideways. Those definitely should have been sent to the outlet and heavily discounted. :)

I posted a pic of a DL55 bag like that awhile ago:

I couldn't believe it when I saw this back panel! You have to wonder what the QC people at D&B were doing that day. :confused3

Oh wow. I can't believe they made that mistake with both the DL and WDW versions, but I guess they are probably manufactured in the same place. Wonder if anyone bought them...
 
They sell imperfect bags in the stores? I have never seen that. Are they discounted? They mark them with a sticker?
 
My hubby let me order a sketch bag for my 40th birthday last week and it is supposed to arrive today!! I am soooo excited to see it and hope that the placement is good. I AM NOT LEAVING my house today until after the UPS man comes!!!!!! :cheer2::cheer2:
 
Good luck with your sketch and please let us know how it is pixiedust: We love to see pictures as they help feed our addiction :dance3:
 
I got my tonal champsac on Saturday from ebay! :thumbsup2

Just now downloaded the pics!

It came all packaged in plastic, never opened and in perfect condition, for $142. Makes me think he/she got it at the Orlando outlet but as you can see it has nice placement but it has a tiny scratch on the handle, other than that, it is perfect!
But, momma's happy, so everyone's in this house is happy. LOL :laughing:

Hope everyone gets their treasures today!!!! :cloud9::yay:

I did. After looking through quite a few bags my DBF found me the perfect placement on my 55th messenger except the back panel is sideways but I didn't care becasue the front was exactly what I was looking for.

Yep, that looks like the back of mine. :rotfl:

It was the same price and I don't think it was marked as imperfect. I think I posted a picture awhile back...I'll have to go see.

DBF's cousin did use her CM discount to get me this purse so I guess he really didn't pay full price. ;)
 
Last night DBF walked in with this:

And inside was a 55th Messenger Bag!

He picked it out all by himself and did a pretty good job with placement, don't you think?

The only minor issue is that the back piece is sideways. I think someone else posted a picture of a bag like this.

DBF said they were all like this and he looked at 5 or 6 that they had out.

He had gone to World of Disney first but they only had 1 in a glass case and told him they would bring him one out from the back. But he knew what I wanted on the front so he went to check out Vault 28.

He said he was standing there with 6 bags on his arm looking each one over and the two guys working kept asking him if he needed help. His reply was , "Nope, I'm just looking for perfect placement." :rotfl:

It doesn't really bother me about the back because I like the front so much and no one will see the back anyway but I'm surprised that Disney (or Dooney) allows is considering how expensive the bags are. :confused3

After I got over the excitment I realized that he doesn't have an AP and I started thinking that he paid full price. I asked him and he said that he called his cousin who is a CM and had her use her discount (35%) so a $255 plus tax bag only cost him $180 out the door.

Then he starts telling me about the Princess pattern and tells me how much he thinks I would like it and that I should get one like that next. :rotfl: This coming from a guy who is constantly telling me I have too many purses. :lmao: I think I've finally converted him to a Disney lover! :thumbsup2

Bump.
 
Your bag is so cute and looks great. In many ways you have a really unique bag with it like that;)

Thanks! I really wanted Mickey and Minnie and the Ears Hat and Walt all on the front and that's exactly what I got. :thumbsup2 Plus I'll never carrythis purse backwards so it's all good. I do carry my Sketch Tassle tote backwards so Tinks shows.
 
I just called the 2 D&B Outlets in CA and they both have some Disney Dooney's! The closest one to me is about an hour and a half away so I may make a trip out there this weekend.
 
Had a Disney Dooney sighting at my daughter's gymnastics class this morning! Sketch Cindy tote, made my morning!
