wow...Marshalls is selling the same exact backpack for 50 bucks? Too funny.

It's really nice...

If I'm not mistaken, Marshalls is an overstocker. So when a wholesaler has too much and can't get his retailers to buy it....they sell it to Marshalls for cheap to get it off the books, and then Marshalls sells it.

So it's likely, you'll never see those again.

That is a YEOP is like big lots for high end clothing.
I go in mashalls and ross alot looking for north face clothing they get
base layer synthetics and gortex coats and pants for about 75% off most of the time.

AJ,

It's all about branding. Certain brand names at certain stores (e.g., REI) can charge more for the boutique factor.

On the other hand, certain brands have inferior reputations say like Honda atvs.
