It seems  that items on clearance online are lasting longer and not having those huge slashed prices necessary to move last season’s merchandise out to make room for the current season Fall merchandise. 

Don’t get MDM wrong this doesn”t mean that online and in the store, there isn’t plenty of Fall inventory; in fact, even Holiday merchandise is out earlier than ever.  Aghast, but nonetheless true, MDM  heard Holiday music being piped in the stores last week!  What seems kind of odd is that online you can find Holiday markdowns from 2006 and last season merchandise that should have had their prices slashed by 75% or more, marked down once or twice to 30%-50% off retail.  This may mean that retailers are banking that areas of the country or world, with warmer climates that still provide a market for summer apparel   and stave off the deep cuts in prices.  Also, It could mean that summer togs have a market for those planning cruises or winter vacations in warmer climates.  Or, it could mean that merchandisers are selective in choosing summer  items for reduced prices based upon individual garment design and its’ ability to be sold as part of a transitional wardrobe for Fall.
