fox4me Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 If you think about it, you can't picket or otherwise shame an online fur enterprise. I think the demand is still there and the fur business will survive. In the future, a resurgency is not out of the question either. Fashion is fickle and people will get tired of wearing petrochemical clothing. Ugh! "Ain't nothin' like the real thing"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkme Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Not a lot of selection left. I think it gets sold off to some liquidator or some furrier in New York to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAINLYMINK Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) Once I went to the big Macy's at Herold Square (many years ago) and was browsing when the salesman came to chat and I asked him to show me the difference between mink and sable (Oh, I knew already!) and he brought out an ankle-length Canadian sable coat in mid-brown. Without my asking, he held the coat open for my arms! I allowed myself to be swathed in it and could honestly not bring myself to take it off for ages and ages. It was glorious! So glorious, in fact, that I returned the next day for a repeat performance -- this time a very kind woman was in charge of the salon and she immediately knew which coat I was referring to -- and obliged me all over again in wearing that fabulous long coat! Ah, Macy's! Edited August 6, 2020 by MAINLYMINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox4me Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Many years ago I was working on the telephone system there when I got an order for a new line in the fur salon. The only person there was an older woman who was wearing a very nice fox stole. After finishing up the job I sat down to kill a little time and enjoy the sights. I asked if men's coats were available for sale. She sad sadly no, but I could try on anything I wanted. Jackpot. I spent the next half hour with my new friend while wearing a floor length blue fox coat that fit like a glove. Needless to say I was a frequent visitor there in my spare time and I think it made her day too! Fur friends are the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkme Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Fox4me, I bet the phone at the fur salon works real well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gai Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 They're all 50% off right now, and most are still pretty expensive. Sadly, even if I wanted to order them, I couldn't since they don't ship to California 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkme Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I think the California ban goes into effect 2023 so you have time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It literally states on there it can't be shipped to California. And when I put it in my cart and go to pay to test it out, it says unavailable to ship.

minkme Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Select another non California address just to test it? Maybe you can get it shipped out of California to a friend or relative, then they can ship it to CA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
