Has the Bruce Makowski line been discontinued?

I don't get to watch very often. Maybe I've been missing his shows. I never purchased his bags but they seemed to very pretty and popular.

Has the line been discontinued?

Yes- but they're waiting for him to die before they deeply discount the remaining inventory.

Wouldn't that make the price go up? Collector's items, and all that.

We had a QVC outlet in our town which closed in Dec. They had tons of B Makowsky bags! Either they over bought, or they just didn't sell.

I used to see TONS of Bruce bags at Marshalls and TJMaxx. Now I don't see them anymore. I don't think the leather quality was the best in some of them. I read a few complaints here about the leather bleeding onto other things, or clothing bleeding on the bags. Some women were unhappy that they had paid $200 for a bag that was ruined after one wearing.

I have a few of his bags and didn't have a problem. However the ones I have are mostly dark colors.

I do think his line was overpriced.
