Sample Sale (in NYC) Final Days

"Thanks!" to many of you, including KatherineD (in this post), Anon at 8:36 PM & Lindsay (in this post), as well as Anon at 9:35 PM (in this post), who let us know that prices have been reduced at J.Crew's Sample Sale in NYC. According to ClothingLine's website (click here):

We will be receiving an additional shipment Friday afternoon & Saturday morning of 5,000 pieces that will include stock merchandise and lots of cashmere.

Also, "thanks!" to v girl (in this post) who let us know that she "went on Tuesday and I decide to go back Today (Friday). The prices are still high. In fact, light cheapo dresses they were charging less on Tuesday just $25, they decided to "re-categorize" so that they fall into the dress category and they are now charging $60. The way they charge you is ridiculous. Nothing is reduced except for T shirts. When I told them the sign says tanks and shirts, they say no to everything because they say it doesn't fall into that category. Basically, it's false advertising. Because nothing appears to fall into that cheaper category!!! Prices are the same or I 'd say even higher after this re-categorization. And there are NO ACCESSORIES ANYMORE! NONE TODAY. NONE TOMORROW they say."

As mentioned in an earlier post (click here), I did attend the sample sale on the first day. I did buy a few things, but not nearly as much as I was (hoping and) expecting to. However, what I did purchase I love:

1. "sample" Postcard Lighthouse skirt in gold sand from Summer '07
   
2. "development sample" of the canvas & leather Avignon Clutch in British Khaki that would have come out in Spring '07
   [I am not sure if this version ever made it into production. I remember the navy version, but not this one.]
3. "1st proto sample" pencil pouch from Fall '08
   
4. Jillian Patterned Toe Flats (Item 10490; was $188.00, now $69.99) in Light Pewter (aka: Golden Roses) from Holiday '08
   
5. Lizzie Patent-Leather Driving Mocs (Item 95894; was $135.00, now $54.99) in Metallic Bronze from Fall '08
6. Jeweled Sunburst Ballet Flats (Item 90670; $325.00) in Black from Spring '08

Are you planning to attend the last day of this event? If you have attended the Sample Sale (during the latter part of the week), do you think it was worth it? Did you find some amazing deals?
