Well, I did have good reason, as it bothers me (and not just me!) that they are asking these crazy prices, and can't even distinguish between real and fake. It would be much better it they put vintage stuff into their shops throughout the year instead of keeping it for Retrodag. But you're right, I did find some pretty clothes.
