Manhattan Sales Alert!!

[swolfod]

It was ok when I was there, but it was 9 in the morning, so I don't know what it's gonna like during peek time. They say 'NO FIST FIGHT' on the wall.

It was actually crowded about an hour ago. Nothing in there worth buying and it was kind of disorganized.
Women were going crazy over some stuff though.

OMG WTF......God forbid they turn a profit and stay in business.

Well...**** them for all I care?
You wanna throw money at corporate you go right ahead.
I'm a cheap ass New Yorker.

now....i was there earlier tonight for about an hour and half.
It's rather odd - shabby basement surrounding, most people there just don't look like
They can afford the stuff there.
the prices just don't reflect that I.e. warehouse SALE.
so so far this "sale" is a teaser , a ******* joke for morons.
(yes if you buy a shirt for $80 in this bazaar you're a moron)

Maybe I will go back few days later when the real sale is on.

Was it crowded? I may take a peek after work but don't like dealing with crowded stores.

I was there earlier tonite (Friday 7 ~8) . By ny standard not too crowded. There were like
8 or 10 cashiers but hardly anyone has any cashiering to do. Which I think actually I'm pretty certain is because of the ****** prices. And looks like they have stuff from YEARS AGO, all dusty and old looking still at 50% of the insane original hipster prices , no wonder they don't sell.

I think women go way more crazy than men at these things.

What quality are the Barney's trousers?

 

[Medwed]

Barneys were empty this afternoon. The sale is the worst I have ever seen. Have you been to Marshall's or FB? Then that is what it is like. 90% of shirts pants and suits are Barney's own. Shirts Barney's/Piatelli 99.00, Pants 170.00/250.00-25%. Outerwear is dusty and old unsold crap from the last 9 years. Shoes are 90% Barney's own lable, with C&J , Paul Smith, Timberland sprinkled in weird styles.
I was interetsed in suits and saw Barneys 599, Piatelli 599/699 and few Canali at 899/1000+

Stay away, BWH is a ridiculous waste of time.

Overall, the sale has been blah. I won't complain. I went 1st thing on the first day and grabbed some C&J handgrade and pair of RLBL trousers. I wanted a few other things but prices were still way too high.

They have better stuff for women I suppose. My friend (girl) got a nice pair of Balenciaga pants for nothing, but the men stuff looks awful.
I need a lot of oxfords too.

This article says the first round of markdowns is better for men - http://ny.racked.com/archives/2012/...downs_have_hit_the_barneys_warehouse_sale.php

This article says even the women's stuff is junk!! Haha - http://www.mizhattan.com/2012/02/sale-hunt-barneys-warehouse-pandemonium.html

Waiting to see if anyone here picks up something decent... I am staying far away from the sale after last year, I was $6,000 down after about 3 days!

Saw Drakes Cashmere for $100~. Not sure if they're still around but the 25% off would make it $75.... Decent deal.... I personally wouldn't get it till it i hits $40
