Tech Day

November 5th, 2007 / Posted in General by Megs Mahoney Dusil.

working on computer We have so much great info and pictures to bring you from our trip to NYC, but today may not be the day. While it is unfortunate, the outcome will be great for all of you (especially the forum regulars) because we are moving to a new server company and will have a bigger set up! For you techies out there, the new set up involves 8 servers to help power the Purse Blog and Purse Forum, so keep down time to a minimum and let you all enjoy the site at all times. No more down time!! So hang in there today, as we are moving all of our data to the new servers. We will open the forum back up later when the move is finished and we will bring you great information from our trip to New York in the coming weeks (like pictures of what is inside my Hermes boxes!!!)

« How’d you feel, if… Saks Preview Sale »

    OMGOSH! I am going through some serious tPF withdrawl, you guys have no idea…okay yes, I think you all do, hehe. I keep checking so often, lol. Ever since yesterday, I’ve felt like a lost puppy without my PF, hehe. I am very glad to hear that there is upgrades in the hardware, that is great!! Thanks for all your hard work!
    It is also bugging me so much to see what’s in those Hermès boxes, I am guessing a Birkin since it’s not a Kelly. Another little hint, please? :)

    Megs–I just know it’s a Birkin. The size of the box makes me think 30, but since Baggs says you are an amazon, maybe it’s a 35…I don’t think it’s exotic…I’m guessing a neutral shade, not a bright. The box on top must be a cadena for the bag.

I think the clutch was half off. You can email your orders now. Tell them what you would like and ask for a price on the items (all under the Vincent tab). They won’t run it without your info.

      Hope that helps.??

    My last comment got lost in the shuffle. Anahi, stay away from efashionhouse. They definitely sell fakes. The only site that sells real LV is eLuxury.

    No…do not purchase anything from those sites. Typically, it’s not really that easy to buy Balenciagas online. Even the “authorized” online sellers do not fully sell online (e.g., aloha rag – you have to fax them your order). Diabro, Bluefly, and Overstock.com are the only places that fully sell authentic Bbags online…and they are “third party” resellers so their stock is very limited and you’d be lucky to find what you’re looking for there. Oh, I guess I forgot rafaello and styledrops…but they are usually so overpriced that they’re not worth it.

      fiatflux…styledrops.com is okay (according to Megs herself) and I have ordered from them w/ much success. They have Balenciagas. They *may* still have free shipping (can’t remember the deadline for that), but if not they have sent two bags I ordered and they shipped and came in 4 days…from Italy!

BUT a little birdie told me they will be marking down the shoes, which is fantastic so I can get a return on the shoes I bought last week :-D

    The patent hobos aren’t currently in stores so I think that’s why they are so cheap.

    ALTHOUGH, I have heard from the Coach forum girls and confirmed this today, that the NEW Leigh legacy flap has been marked down from 658 to 348. AMAZING.

    So, regardless of the sale, I would sail over to Nordie’s and check out what they have in the reduced section!

    I know huh…both :-D
    Black is always fun and if the bags were plain leather instead of patent it would be a tougher decision…certain colors look better than others in patent, black and red always look good…brown is hit or miss. this brown is a more espresso-y brown so it does look quite divine, but I think it would look odder than the black one on me.

    But it is always better to get opinions on here! :-D

    Hi mas2388,

    Re: Rebecca Minkoff sample sale

    How on earth did you get through to that number to the sample sale? I’m been calling constantly since 12:00. I get one of the following when I call:

    1) busy signal
    2) voice mail recording telling me the box is full
    3) the phone rings and rings and after so long it disconects me

    I have called so so many times (it’s not even funny) but to no avail.

    Thank you.

      I guess I just got lucky??? I called 3 times. First time, it was busy, 2nd and 3rd times it was the recording, 4th time I got it! I called around 4:30. They close at 5.

      Just keep trying!

    You can email your order to Rebecca Minkoff. Click on Vincent and look at the purses. Then get your order together and email it to them. That’s what they told me I could tell others to do. Here’s the email I got:

    Hello!

    If you still want to place your order, please click this link :
    http://www.rebeccaminkoff.com/sample-sale.html

    and then email your order to store@rebeccaminkoff.com and we can now take email orders.

    i got through for rebecca minkoff at 4:10p EST! and i’d been trying since 11:59 am! i also emailed jes, of their customer service, and she emailed me a private line to preorder with her. but by the time i got her email, i’d just gotten through on the phone.

    i bought a MA mini in the royal. that was my first impulse, to go with a bright color (my second choice was the sage, then the blue). what do you girls think? i wish it was less than $365 though — and i can’t believe i could have gotten 20% more bag by paying $10 more for the regular size! but i don’t need something that big.

    also this year, they’re not taking preorders for pickup in nyc. the bags are coming from a non-nyc location, so everyone will get their orders mailed to them.

    Lainey — keep trying to get through to Rebecca Minkoff. I just finally got through. I ordered the Morning After Bag in Tomato, as well as Green (apparently I got the last bag). I too was a bit surprised that the bags are $375, since they’re also on sale at Nordstrom for $394.90 with free shipping. Oh, well, I’m just happy to have both bags in colors I’ve wanted.

    When I told Carrie from Rebecca Minkoff that I heard about the sale through the Purse Forum, she immediately knew what I was talking about and said that Rebecca had been interviewed here. She has talked to a lot of Purse Forum members today. I told her that RM needs to do events/special with Purse Forum and she agreed.

    And, by the way, I’m so in love with this board. I was going through board withdrawl during the strain of not being able to get through to Rebecca Minkoff’s sample sale line! I needed support from my fellow board members!

    Oh my God! My first daughter is now 13 and in grade 8…she said that grade 7 was great, but she really struggled with my absence in grade 6. Now – even more amazing – get this…my second daughter is now 11!!!!!!

    And – this really rocked me back on my heels – I’ve got a new husband! Much cuter than the first, but not quite as good a sense of humour.

    I have GOT to start checking in at home more often….this maintenance may be the best thing that ever happened to my family. But tPF better be back up soon, I don’t want my kids to start EXPECTING my attention…

    (Thanks for all the hard work Meg and Vlad!!…..now I have to go find “a meeting” for tonight…)

    Hey Bagachondriac!! I’m still here and preggers. The babies decided not to come out yesterday, but I’m pretty sure it will be sometime this week. I miss all your posts and sadly had to find sales on my own since there’s no access to deals and steals. Congrats on your BE&D additions. Did you go for the RM bags too??

    Dear Megs and Vlad:

    Thank you! Thank you so much for giving me time to take my 6 week old nasty nail polish off my toes, soak my feet in a minispa treatment, and manicure my pretty lil’ fingernails!

    Now that my nails have dried and my feet are wrapped in plastic baggies, I am ready for some great ol’ fashioned blogging!!!

    I will not lie, I am sad that I cannot converse among the boards, but I am so freakin’ excited that hopefully things will be much faster and error-free!

    I have only one request…when the site is back up, can you tell us how many people hit this site and what time the most hits came in at? I am oh, so interested to see how many of us are going through withdrawls!

    Happy server moving!! I thank you for caring enough to take out the time of your crazy lives to give us such a great place and loving us enough to make all these neat improvements!

    I can’t wait to see today’s Barbie’s outfit and I can’t wait to see today’s November purchases (as there has been ton’s of time for extra shopping!!) and I can’t wait for the baby boom thread!!! (Special thanks to bagnshoofetish for that one!!!)

    Sincerely;

    well hope the TPF comes back soon so everyone can get share their deals/finds and can get their stuff authenticated! plus i want to see everyone’s new bags! i can’t be buying bags so often so i must live vicariously through all of you guys! :)

I think my 3 posts have been seized by a mod!!! LOL. I’m not that obsessed, am I? Sheesh! Ok…So one of the latest threads over there was about Chanel Gladiators and should she buy them…Most comments were “like, no way! They’re like soooo expensive…You can get the same ones for like twenty bucks at PayLess Shoes…” Arghhh, I need tPF back big time!!! Why would you sign up on the Vogue Forum if you can justify a $20 pair of fake Gladiators over the real thing? I just don’t get it…

    omg, this is killing me. Yesterday, just when I was about to do a search on H wallets, this happens. It’s already Tuesday afternoon in my part of the world. I’m getting disoriented checking tPF every hour and very sad about the fact that I’m hopelessly addicted :)

    But I’m not alone, apparently :D

    UPDATE WITH STATS:

    The forum will look the same- just run much faster. No new upgrade really- though some old features will be able to be used again.

    This is a very informative update- straight from the techs.

    “transfered 180323 of 503592 files, still going, it has had to be restarted a few times”

    Ok, by my incorrect maths, that means there is roughly – 323269 bits of data left. The site was down for a day and a half, so it means that TPF is going be back on line by Friday?? Pray tell its a mistake???

    Bachelor, Hills, I Love New York – just a few shows that have aired new episodes since the commencement of what history will record as The Great Upgrade – and will have inspired a deluge of delightful snark in the hearts and fingertips of my tPF siblings, and for my own part, I struggle to contain a gushing rapid of preposterously overthought and over-verbiose pontificating analysis of the latest antics of Audrina and It and Brad the Dork, not to mention the world’s favorite dysfunctional family, those ridiculous Reys!

    And tonight, if I am not mistaken, a new season begins for yet another beloved glimpse into the alleged lives of those object lessons in what happens to Real Housewives of the SoCal enclaves who visit Dr Rey one or twelve times too many – and this in the wake of a recent interview with Lauri where she declares she will never look a day over 32.

    I am sure that once the stalwart NerdArmy charged with connecting all those wires and coupling all those connectors are made aware of THAT, it will speed their nimble fingers, and just in time, as all 8 servers will surely be required to contain our thoughtful and incisive comments on the subject of Lauri’s pronouncement alone!
