Everything in the print catalog has at least a full size run, at every store, that will be released on Friday, plus more released for on-line sales. For items not in the print catalog, she had the same advice as everyone here- there may be more released, and if not, you can expect lots of returns to start popping back up next week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825767 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:21:38 +0000 Thistle 1825767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It means it's temporarily sold out.</p> <p>However, many sizes come back in stock as people return things. They either bought multiple sizes to try on (guilty!) or they return it as it didn't work for them.</p> <p>Definitely keep checking.&nbsp;</p> <p>We're still in the pre-sale, and I remember in prior years, them restocking some items for the regular sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825683 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:42:50 +0000 Emily K 1825683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all!</p> <p>I've played this game with Nordstrom before--I don't know if you all remember the Frances Valentine purse situation? &nbsp;On that occasion, even C/S could not tell me if the item was gone all the way up the supply chain, temporarily out of stock, planning a re-issue, or whatever else it may have been. &nbsp;A day or so later, I got one that must have been a return, because after I purchased it, the item was gone from the Nordstrom website altogether...but newly available at the FV website. SO, I guess I would found one--one way or another.</p> <p>Alright...I'm gonna stalk these things! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825494 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 11:00:50 +0000 Lisa 1825494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great question.&nbsp; I've seen items pop in and out of stock randomly so I would stalk if you really want it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825215 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 16:26:28 +0000 Gaby Meyers 1825215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I noticed from last years sale that items I was interested in kept going in and out of stock. &nbsp;By the time the sale opened to the general public they had plenty. &nbsp;I suspect they hold back stock so everyone gets a shot plus I'm sure they also get a fair amount of returns and folks releasing items from their basket.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825098 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 03:58:31 +0000 Gigi 1825098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had this same question. I ordered a leather jacket in an amber color instead of black because all of the sizes said "Not available in black." I went on the site again today and see that of the amber sizes, the one I ordered is not even showing up on the list. So I assume that my size sold out. But it did not show up with a "Not available" remark. Very strange. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825081 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 02:22:24 +0000 laura123 1825081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In my experience Nordstrom has a lot of popbacks, even months later. Definitely keep checking regularly! I've had good luck late at night (not sure if that's when they update their site). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825078 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 02:19:07 +0000 bridgie 1825078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't know what it meant until I read Aquamarine's reply, but I do know that I have&nbsp; kept stalking some items in the past and will continue to do&nbsp;so.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hope you get what you are wanting.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825069 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 01:43:07 +0000 Aquamarine 1825069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm pretty sure it means that particulate combination is not available *for now.* Keep checking back throughout the sale and it may very well come back. Or even post-sale, sometimes at a lower price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-when-it-says-not-available#post-1825065 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 01:38:26 +0000 Emily K 1825065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What, exactly, does it mean when an item shows "not available in this size or combination".</p> <p>Is it temporarily out of stock? &nbsp;Premanently gone? &nbsp;Reappearing in stores, later, at regular prices?</p> <p>Should I bother to stalk these items for later purchase or should I move on? </p>
