i think a lot of stores like target and walmart are cutting down on inventory. i think this collection has certain things that will be difficult to obtain after a few weeks.
I agree... I love the ponte dress. It has great potential since the classic shape is great for a dress but also doubles as a sweater/ coat easily. It fits true to size.

I only got a color block tee. The rest of the stuff was either not made with older or curvier chicks in mind or I hated the fabric, with the exception of the leather trim jacket. I loved that one but I didn't feel like spending 60 bucks on it. I'd rather save the money for one of the Anya Hindmarch bags.

well, i think the economy has contracted so much that people have slowed down on clothing purchases. plus the stock/inventory here is more limited as compared to luella proenza schouler etc.

i think target will expand inventory if/when alexander mcqueen does a collection.

my theory is that people are buying the anya hindmarch bags instead. some styles are already sold out online during the presale...plus the anya for target bags sold out in two minutes on anyahindmarch.com

If it wasn't for Lucy92, I would have never known that the lines go on clearance. Even though a lot of stuff sold out for Rogan, a lot of it also went on clearance to 75% off so I'm also waiting for this line to do the same.

also after the garments go on sale in the stores eventually they get moved to the SuperTargets or the Target Greatlands, these stores have a lot more room.

You may find a greater selection at these stores.

i'm also thinking that after isaac mizrahi's items are no longer in the store (starting in january) theres going to be a lot more room for Go international items.

There are some crazy people in this world. I saw the jacket with brown leather on ebay for twice the price on Target, PLUS shipping! It was over $100, when on Target its only $59 and free shipping. And the seller had the nerve to write in her listing "not available in stores or online" (which is a lie) and not to ask her why she marks up so ridiculously high (rude!). The hell?? I can't believe the gall of some people these days.

I agree with you lollicandy. I think its probably desperation.

Great purchases ChrissyM.

Do you guys know when clearance might start?

I think that people sell on eBay at these crazy prices because people outside the US are not able to purchase directly from Target; and eBay is there only outlet. When you convert the euro or pound, Europeans can get the clothes at the same amount Americans pay. I was checking out alice+olivia for Payless on eBay and I noticed that the Rivington boot was selling for a lot more than from Payless directly and the winning bidder was from Europe. I thought it was kind of interesting.

target.com

I was checking out the Go Collection online and just noticed that this multi colorblock tunic sold out in all sizes. I was eyeing this dress but it wasn't on the top of my must purchase list. I was hoping it would go to 75% off. Oh well.
