Recession-proof shopping at Regent's Secret

If you too are sick of the undignified elbowing and long lines that often take place at sample sales, then you'll enjoy Regent’s Secret. They organize online sample sales for those who treasure their personal space, with up to 70% off retail prices.
Currently on sale is Evisu (ends October 1 at 11:59pm). Their YAYA AFLALO sales kicked off today and ends October 2 at 11:59pm. Adn we're really excited for their Salvatore Ferragamo sale that starts October 2 at 12:00am and ends October 5 at 11:59pm.
The concept behind Regent's Secret is based on a successful e-commerce business model which originated in France, whereby private sales of designer overstock is taken online by a middleman before heading to outlets.
"For consumers, it’s a smart way to dress like a celebrity without breaking the bank," said a rep for Regent's Secret. "It’s also great for those living in areas not considered the so-called Fashion Capitals of the world, where shoppers may not have access to a wide variety of sample sales."
Past sales have included Dolce & Gabanna, Tom Ford, Hudson Jeans, Joe’s Jeans, 2B Free and Roberto Cavalli.
If you invite friends, you can get 5% of their purchases in cash for life.
