There is a chance that the salesperson was just confused or jockeying for an extra couple bucks of commission. The guys at Blackbird are leagues better than the girls in terms of customer experience.

You walk in, ask what's included in the sale, and then buy said included stuff.

Is this worth going to? What kind of deals can I expect at one of these? Good selection usually?

I went two years ago. It's not the bi-annual 50% off the previous season sale at the Mercer store. The discounts are bigger, the stock a little less great, and the line stretched for three blocks and it was a shitstorm two years ago. But I got a suit, goth jacket, and some nice shorts last time.
