wait! isn't the auction another day or so away from ending? what is the bid up to? i say wait until closer to the end of the auction and bid again before you give up on the auction.

tara t where do you live? i feel like that plays an important factor into the answer of your question. i live in nyc, and basically, all the high end dept stores put most styles of mj bags on sale at the end of the season. most usually go afte the first markdown.... but sometimes you get lucky. i used to work right by all the mj stores (m by mj, accessories, mj... it was torture) so i could stop in any time i wanted to. so question, what's the mj situation like in your area?

I keep seeing them marked down in DC as well. Usually marked to around $400 or so

ok, if you want the bag in cherry blossom specifically, you might want to just save up and buy it @ full price as soon as your shopping ban is over because that bag in that specific color may never go on sale. but if you just want the blake bag and don't NEED it in cherry blossom, then i'd wait for the the sale. hth!
