Hi i did check online for the Coach store in Key West. It is considered an outlet store. Actually when researching I found and read good reviews written about it.  Great sales and lots of merchandise.

LoversRock,

We have 2 Coach outlets here in Orlando and none of the Coach stores I have been to on any of my cruises compared to them either in price or selection.  They were small like the Coach stores in the malls around here and the prices were definitely not deals.  The Coach store in San Juan and Key West are listed as an outlet but looked the same as the company stores. The store in Nassau is a very small company store and not worth wasting time on. You can however get a knock off at the straw market of just about any thing--Gucci, Prada, Coach, D & B.

Maybe you will have better luck than I did.  Happy cruising.

Hey Flbeachgirl,

Thanks again for the info. Same here in Houston. The mall Coach stores are very small and prices are definitely not bargains. The regular stores ever rarely have sales. Thats the main reason I frequent the outlet stores. The Houston outlet store for Coach is huge and have great selections, and is  always having good sales such as 20% -50 % off. Just plan on spending all day because it is always crowded and check out lines are long. I have been to other outlet stores in different states. I do notice that all of them do not carry alot of the same stuff. I also I did notice a difference in pricing. It think it may just depend on the store and its location. We'll see i go in March 201 0..  Hey have you been to any of the Gucci outlets in Florida? If so what did you think?

Unfortunately the closest Gucci outlet to me is 3 hours away, so I haven't been to it.  Not sure if they will be putting one in one of our outlets here in Orlando. There is a Gucci store in the mall but it is WAY too overpriced.  Also a LV and I saw a small handbag I really liked.....$975.  Needless to say I left and it stayed, lol.

The closest Gucci to me is 2 hrs away in San Marcos. I have not been yet, but a girlfriend and I thought about driving one weekend to check it out. Thats why I asked.  A friend just bought a Gucci messenger bag for $200 from the outlet. It was made out of a nylon type material, so I wasnt really impressed with it. Yea dont even mention LV totally out of my league. I do have one, only because it was a " I am sorry, please forgive me gift " from my ex bf. Needless to say I accepted and forgave at that time. .
