Not too far off probably....
There is also a trend in upscale consignment shops, for brand name merchandise. A friend of ours owns one, and my wife has a lot of designer stuff, but at real cheap prices.
Where these stores have always been high is furniture. They want $100's of dollars for used furniture... Seriously? I can go to craigslist instead. When my stepson moved in, I got a solid wooden queen sized bead with carved headboard for $100. I mean, this was nice....4 poster style bed. At a thrift store, it would have been three times that, easy.

Remember the peanut butter crisps bars? They were small rectangular in shape and were white with brown stripes? They were slightly hard and chewy and PB flavored? OMG I loved those things and I can't find them anywhere!
I think these are what you're talking about Peanut butter bars 3lb for $9.99edit on 23-6-2013 by tinker9917 because: (no reason given)
if you walk into an Ahsley furniture or Star etc that is supposed to be "higher quality furniture" and I see it's all made of particle board, stapled together, and has cheep plastic drawer runners, then look at the price of 3500$ it's no wonder people are only interested in buying older stuff that actually made of wood and dove tailed.
