What website or store can I see Purple Label line at ? On Polo.com they only show a very few styles, and I have seen everything on Ebay numerous times, is there a store or catalog I can look thru ? maybe a website showing all past and present p.l. stuff ?

little out there on the web. Your best bet is your closest Neiman Marcus. Some of the Polo stores carry it but not many. Pretty tough to find overall, which is certainly part of why it is in whatever demand it is in.

Don't know about hard to find. Saks for Men on Wilshire always has scalds of the stuff on double discount (along with John Varvatos, Vestimenta, and other more "conservative" stuff) on the first floor after Christmas, and Loehmann's in Beverly Hills invariably has lots of shirts, sweaters, Polos, and occasionally ties, and assorted outerwear as well. Trying to score Costume National at discount is considerably more difficult, if that is your criterion for desirability.

It's just the opposite in SF - tons of Costume National I've seen - very little Purple Lable on discount. Funny how different it can be.

It depends, some items can be hard to find (suits) while others (polos, especially in large sizes) can be quite easy to find. I really like the RLPL Lisle polos so I look for them on sale whenever possible.

I've seen lots of RLPL at Neiman-Marcus. Also at the Polo store. Also, if you want to see a broad variety of stuff in pictures, go to EBay and do a search for "purple label" -- it'll bring up 100s of items.

Maybe we could all arrange a swap. Wouldn't that be fun? Seriously.
