Cheap Topshop shoes / Topshop clearance shops

Shop_til_you_drop_2

Does anyone know of any Topshop clearance outlets in the North West? In particular I'm after shoes. You used to be able to pick up a bargain from a clearance shop called Steals or Jonny Monks but they seem to be closing down.

I've been to two Outfit stores and niether of them sold clearence stock. Just the usual stuff you'd find in Topshop, Miss Selfridge etc...

Yes thanks for that. I've had a look at the Outfit website and they don't mention clearance, just all brands under one roof, but it might be worth a visit.

There must be some clearance outlets somewhere because there are so many 'hardly worn' topshop shoes on ebay from the same sellers its hard to believe these people can buy shoes to wear once then sell on at less than half price.

Outfit is not a clearance store. Just a single shop with several brands in it (I'd assume to reduce over heads).

Ive been trying for months to find out the same thing.
There is an Arcadia warehouse Leeds and there are lots of ebay seller from Leeds selling TOPSHOP clothes and shoes.
I phoned Arcadia to ask where their factory outlet is, they said they dont have one.
I guess you just have to know the right people!

sorry about that, i always got the impression they were discount stores, glad i've not made the effort to search one out now!
i worked for topshop and as far as i know they just put all their unsold stock out on sale rather than sending it to a discount store. you'd be amazed at the stuff they dreg up when they do a store tidy. i found a top from about 1996 lurking around the back of a rail and they put it out on sale for 50p. someone's probably on ebay flogging it for a fortune now as 'vintage'

Thanks for that. Just to clarify I think Steals stocked shop returns rather than end of line clearance because you did need to check for faulty zips and missing buttons etc. Not everything was faulty but I would say 50% was but items were very cheap like Miss Selfridge jeans still on sale in the shop but priced £5 because the button was missing. So maybe high street shops are offloading this stock somewhere. It would make sense to try to sell it on rather than just bin it. The question is where is it being sold?

i went to steals in farnworth yesterday. it's still open but it is closing down, everything is £2 - but it seems like it's been picked clean, there is a lot of crap there now, most things seemed to be very damaged. i asked the woman who worked there and she said they're definitely closing but they have no idea when. she said all the topshop shoes have now moved to blackburn but they've just been told that branch is closing too! there are still branches in lancaster and somewhere else i've forgotten tho.
hope this helps someone...
i am desperate to know where they get all these shop returns from.... let's go straight to the source!!
