If you're a bargain hunter or a fashion lover looking for luxury at a discount, you’ve probably shopped both sample sales and outlet stores. But which one actually offers the better deal? At Eclipse, we believe that nothing beats the excitement — and the savings — of a true sample sale.
Let’s break down the differences so you can shop smarter (and save bigger).
What is a Sample Sale?
A sample sale is a special event where designers and brands sell showroom samples, prototypes, and past-season pieces at deeply discounted prices. Items are often unique — think one-of-a-kind designs, limited runs, and rare finds not available in regular stores.
At Eclipse's Sample Sale, we bring you carefully curated luxury pieces with savings of up to 70% off retail.
What is an Outlet Store?
An outlet store typically sells:
-
Overproduced items
-
Past-season stock
-
Lower-cost versions of popular styles made specifically for outlet sales
While you can still find good deals at outlets, the merchandise is often mass-produced and not as unique or high-quality as what you'll find at a sample sale.
Sample Sale vs. Outlet Store: The Main Differences
Feature | Sample Sale | Outlet Store |
---|---|---|
Item Rarity | One-of-a-kind or limited edition | Mass-produced |
Discounts | Up to 70% off or more | 20–50% off typically |
Product Quality | Original designer pieces | Often slightly lower quality |
Shopping Experience | Event-based, exciting finds | Ongoing, but less exclusive |
