I only ever buy on sale and with %offs on items that usually retail much more in the same store and usually by the next day they've gone back up to their old price. I just get what I want quality wise, for the price I want. I don't buy tons of clothes I only buy during certain times of sales. I haven't had an issue with low quality.

Newsflash. The actual designer sites are always more expensive than resellers and whole sellers. I have seen 100-200 price differences for the actual items.
