I think it depends on the collection and your area, but counters do not participate. For example, the Sunvalley Mall store in Concord (San Francisco Bay Area) was the only store in the area to have a preview party for Sundressing, even though we have a PRO Store and 3-4 freestanding stores in the Bay Area.
So, naturally, the store was packed and we had to wait 45 minutes just to get into the damn thing because the store was at maximum capacity. Of course, it was HOT and so crowded you couldn't get to the displays. I only bought what I knew I wanted and went back later to check out the rest.
I got an invite for the Untamed preview party at the PRO Store in San Francisco. I was invited by the manager when I spent a boatload a few weeks ago. I hope I get an invite in the mail, though. I plan to go to this one, since the PRO store is beautiful and much bigger than the freestanding mall store. Will report back with many details!
