Coach coming to Valley Plaza
Reporter Courtenay Edelhart dug up this fine little nugget today: High-end handbag maker Coach Inc. plans to open a store at Valley Plaza Mall this fall. Until the Bakersfield store at 2701 Ming Ave. opens on Aug. 15, the closest Coach store is in Fresno. In addition to designer handbags, Coach sells clothes, accessories, business cases, eyewear, fragrance, jewelry, gloves, luggage, scarves and wallets. Based in New York City, Coach has 281 stores in the United States, and is sold at 900 department store locations in the U.S. and 140 international department stores. Can Bakersfield folks afford a Coach store? Will you be shopping there? 4 comments from 4 users

Not sure why we need a coach store. The sell these bags in the plaze as the above post mentioned. Must agree Coach, is not high end, look at the bags the celebrities carry in Hollywood. I probably won't shop there considering I like D&B purses. posted by

Macy's has been selling Coach handbags for a few years. Coach isn't really high-end anymore, especially since Macy's started keeping some of its inventory outside of the display cases. For the most part, Coach is just as expensive as Dooneys. Nice handbags, but definitely not high-end. posted by

Oh my! A nineteen year old girl's dream come true! NOT. Please, someone tell me when Bakersfield was a town full of people replicating Paris Hilton and Hollywood has-beens, who are willing to pay bundles for a brand name. So drive on past Ming Ave Exit, up the grapevine, and I promise you, Coach, you will reach Hollywood Blvd sooner or later. You'll be more welcomed there. posted by

Yay! I can finally stop burning my excess money in the fireplace and spend it at the Coach store instead!
