Interesting development over at Gilt Groupe

When is a deal not really a deal?  I have been a member of Gilt Groupe for awhile.  Great prices on designer stuff right?  Well at least that is what I thought until I read this article today. Seems like success has bread a big problem: not enough hot fashion at a cheap enough price.  So what is the solution?  Well just commission the designers to make some more stuff specifically for the Gilt Groupe price point. Think Big name designers do Target.  Yea, that is right, this is not the Haute Couture stuff you expected to see on sale, it is off the rack mass produced price point stuff with the designer name on it.  Specific for Gilt. 

These guys are going to get busted.  I for one am leaving as a member.
