(13,447 posts)3. I've always wondered if they ever actually have a sale
think about it. Their stuff is ALWAYS marked down 30-40% off. I think they just decided to pretend that they're always having a sale by creating bogus prices that are 30% higher than the price they always intended to sell the product.
