I went on a week day. The building is not glamorous. If I did not see the sign on the outside pavement, I would have walked past it. However, when one enters into the first floor by a worn out looking lift, I was overwhelmed at the large selection of very reasonably priced leather items. It was quiet, but you have a large space to wonder in.

I picked up an excellent, long rectangular leather purse which easily grips into my hand. It was originally priced at $80 and paid only $40. The purse description includes over 16 cards holders, ample space for keys or mobile phone, money, two dollar pouches, had a pen clip and two more compartments. The quality of black leather was lovely and smooth. I noticed there a number of these purses in dark green, red, hot pink and purple which gave me choice.

The general choice of leather colours in the store are black, brown, electric blue, purples, dark green, emerald green, red, hot pink, tan, white. There were an excellent array of suede and leather jackets. A pretty soft pale mint green and pale pink suede jackets just above the knee were priced at $100 caught my eye.

Another bargain I picked up was a large corporate leather bag which was originally priced at $280.00. I saw the price tag of $60. I asked the shop attendant why the price was so low, if there was any damage on the item. He stated that the stock was older. Since, he had about four-five bags left in (black and dark brown). He wanted to get rid of old stock. Then I was offered another $10 off the price. Therefore, I only paid $50.

On the front of the black bag it had a nice long mobile rectangular telephone pocket. A large square pouch. The next section had a large document pouch, then a laptop pouch which incorporated two pockets and another pocket for one's purse. Then another large compartment on the back. The zips were of good quality, strong and unzipped easily. It had a strong bag strap which could be easily adjusted to comfortably fit on one's shoulder. It was perfect for work or an interview bag. The style was classic, which did not date. In short, the leather quality was exceptional.

I noticed large Pierre Cardin items reasonably prices. Long black leather belts for jeans were from $10-15 which were reasonable.

The shop attendant was friendly, helpful and very patient with me due to being a comparison shopper. I calculate nearly every item in a range. Additionally, I am extremely picky, but a practical shopper and hate being ripped off!

I asked another person if they sold leather cleaner. She told me that they did not sell leather polish; but, recommended a leather polish and Mr Sheen to polish my leather items. Apparently, Mr Sheen worked well for them. I thought what good advice and have used it. I was surprised it worked well with a soft cloth.

I have previously gone to numerous DFO's and was disappointed with their prices, even when they are on sale. As an avid eBay shopper, I could not find such bargains. I would recommend this factory outlet because it offers really good prices, excellent quality and customer service. This factory outlet has been the best for leather items for me. I have no hesitation in recommending it to others.

Approximate cost: $40 purse & $50 large bag
