Deal Alert: Michael Kors Large Hamilton Grommet Tote on Beyond the Rack

Just a quick post to share this deal with you…

I was on the hunt for the Michael Kors Large Grommet Hamilton Tote in Black for months. I first saw the red version on grit and glamour’s instagram feed some time ago—I fell in love instantly, but couldn’t justify the $698 cost. Then, about a month and a half ago, I was looking for a brand new bag for work and came across the Grommet Hamilton again.

Only this time it was marked down to $314.  And it was exactly what I was looking for.  Great craftsmanship, high quality leather, practical enough for work and edgy enough for play!

The only problem?

It was SOLD OUT.

Everywhere.

I hunted online and in-stores and couldn’t find it anywhere.  Those of you who know me know that I can usually sniff out the things I am looking for, but no such luck. This time, ebay was my only option.   So I stalked the auction site until I finally found a new, authentic tote at a reasonable price.  It was more than $314, but less than $500, so I was content. Mostly.

I used it for the first time today and can say that, in my opinion, it was worth every penny.  I LOVE it.

And tonight the same tote is available on Beyond the Rack—in red OR black.

Some might not consider this a real “deal” because of the $499 price tag, but given how impossible it is to find this particular bag, I think it is worth sharing.  I watched them sell repeatedly on ebay for $599 and more, so this is a great deal in my book.

The bad news is the deal is only good through March 11th, which is in a few days! So if you are dying to get your hands on this bag—do it now!
