Pinkbaby01 Posted January 11, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Is the Coach store on the Allure less expensive on the ship, or the same price as in the malls in the states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mairem17 Posted January 11, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Is the Coach store on the Allure less expensive on the ship, or the same price as in the malls in the states. From what I saw in there, the prices are the same to more expensive than the malls in the states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted January 11, 2012 #3 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Check your land prices before you board Allure, and then you will know how to compare. Remember, purchases onboard are tax and duty-free; the price on the tag is the price you will pay with your Sea Pass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdbcruisers Posted January 12, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I bought my wife some Coach perfume on the Allure last September and it was $6 less expensive than the Coach store here at the Mall of America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprout76 Posted January 12, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 12, 2012 The small purse I bought on Oasis was the same price as it was at home...of course I saved on tax, but that is pretty minimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCI_FADM_76 Posted January 12, 2012 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I do remember specifically commenting to my DW (while in the Coach store) that the prices were comparable to what we would find back home. It did not appear that you were paying any particular premium from buying on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruzerci Posted January 12, 2012 #7 Share Posted January 12, 2012 My sister told my wife the prices were almost the same as on land, perhaps a tiny bit lower since it is duty free. The only reason I can see buying it onboard is that you will think of Allure whenever you use it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunandseagirl617 Posted January 12, 2012 #8 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I purchased an over the shoulder bag at the Coach 'outlet' store in the states and it was $30 less at home than on the ship....... My opinion, don't waste your $$$ except as a previous poster said, "it will remind you of your Allure cruise.." which is priceless:D Of course I purchased the bag for the ship which still reminds me of Allure!

Rare LittleMissMagic Posted January 12, 2012 #9 Share Posted January 12, 2012 It would be really cute if Coach did an exclusive bag for the Allure of the Seas, like Dooney & Bourke makes bags for Walt Disney World! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's what I was kind of hoping for also. Def not going to spend vacation dollars on something I can get at home.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcuecruise Posted January 12, 2012 #11 Share Posted January 12, 2012 My question is....why do they have a Coach store on these ships? Is Coach paying them nicely? It seems they could use the space for something that appeals to more people. I never saw anybody in the Coach store each time I walked by, so it made me wonder.

Nickles Posted January 12, 2012 #12 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I thought the Coach store was only on the Oasis? Doesn't Allure have the Guess store in its place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbie5401 Posted January 12, 2012 #15 Share Posted January 12, 2012 There is a huge Coach outlet store in San Juan and one in Orlando. That is where I buy mine - never on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clean1owner Posted January 13, 2012 #16 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Like WalMart? :D :D :D If they did have a WalMart on board. I guarantee you it would be plenty busy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanafan Posted January 13, 2012 #17 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I thought the Coach store was only on the Oasis? Doesn't Allure have the Guess store in its place? There is both a Coach store and a Guess store on Allure. The prices are the same that you would pay in a Coach store--not a Coach outlet store. You have to know your bags. It is possible that they have purses in stock that have since been discounted at the Coach stores here. I bought a really cool purse that in one of their 'international' bags and it is not sold in the states. I wasn't planning to get a new purse, but once I saw it I had to have it! Funny how that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
