Attention fellow Mizhattanites! I've received word from a trusty source that Gucci is currently hosting an employee sample sale at Soiffer Haskin. As you might have guessed, this corporate sale requires you have an invite or be a +1. Merchandise includes RTW, shoes, handbags, and accessories. As of this writing, there is a substantial line of sale goers in front of Soiffer Haskin. If you're wondering what it's like to be inside the sale, here's what readers had to say about the Gucci sample sale back in 2012.
Where: Soiffer Haskin, 317 W. 33rd St. (near 8th Ave.)

When I was at the Oscar de la Renta sample sale, I overheard the employees at Soiffer Haskin talking about the gucci sale! Is it worth to stop by or is it strictly for people with invites?
ReplyDeleteFor now, the sale is open to the invited guests only.
DeleteOMG! Any word on how long the event will be and if it will be opened to the public?
ReplyDeleteI will keep you informed as soon as I hear more.
DeleteNice scoop Miz! I work nearby and was wondering what that line was. I'll have to see if I can get in in the afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI passed by, they locked the line inside the building, so no line from outside. They security is super strict. The girl stands outside with a iPad for name check

She got me a sukey medium tote for $150:) most leather bags were $300, and exotic skin were $800. 7 bags limit per person. shoes were $50 and $80. She said things were flying fast, not sure how much is left by now....

DeleteThanks for responding and sharing your finds Santo!
DeleteWOW - your prices are so much cheaper than what my friend said she got bags for. I wonder if she's just reselling them for more?
Deletesales ends tomorrow
ReplyDeleteAnyone know timings for tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteI think it ends at 6.
Delete@SantoPolanco, thank you for sharing the pictures. These are incredible prices, love all of your bags. Enjoy!
ReplyDeletethank you. I'm tempted to stop by today since I will be in the area. I wish they had more mens shoes in my size.
ReplyDeleteI got in today without an invite. Thank you Miz for the info. Because of you I picked up a ton of things at over 90% off. They had additional markdown on clothes and small leather goods today. There were no woman's shoes left, but my husband walked away with a nice black pair of shoes for $80 (they still had a nice stock of men's shoes from size 7 to 16) and 3 suits for $150 each (plenty of suits were left as well). Some handbags were leftover in one style for $400 and some exotic handbags for $800 or $1,000. I passed on them and went straight for the clothing.
ReplyDeleteNice haul! So glad you were able to get in. Thank you for the update!!
DeleteDo you know when the gucci online sale will take place?
ReplyDeleteIt should start soon. I will let you know.
DeleteHOW I CAN BE ON THE LIST FOR NEXT YEAR ????? AND THIS SAMPLE SALE IS ONE OR TWICE A YEAR ???
ReplyDeleteHOW I CAN BE ON THE LIST FOR NEXT YEAR ????? AND THIS SAMPLE SALE IS ONE OR TWICE A YEAR ???
ReplyDelete@Alexandra, how did you get in without an invite?
ReplyDeleteBy the last day, they don't really enforce the list any more. @Alexandra congrats on your finds.
DeleteI discreetly asked if the sample sale was still going on and acted like I knew where I was going. However, when I was leaving a couple was given hard time and were questioned if they were on the list. I guess it is all based on luck. I really went over there with an expectation of being turned down.
DeleteI hear some people are able to get into the Louboutin sample sale...another coveted sample sale I would love to attend.
Thanks Santo! Maybe you can help me get that Sukey bag at the next sample sale? ;)
DeleteThanks Alexandra for the info! I will try my luck next time. :)
