The sales are poor cause there hasn't been a real winter, so everyone are slow with the season shopping, which makes the stores panic and sale out too quick too much, and that combined with having too little creativity put into their assortment considering the pricetags makes people less keen on buying the rare pieces (they'd hurry if they knew they'd never find anything like it) and shop like crazy on sales instead.
Black Market is the only business that is growing now, which would be because they have a wilder assortment, so that people will have to buy it in season to get their hands on what they want
I'm sure things would go better if they went more adventurous.

You're talking about R.O. a/w 08 and P&F? Do you mean they're marking down a/w 08, that s/s 08 could be used in winter time or perhaps that they put all the a/w 08 stuff out at once? I don't get what you're saying. [76]
Wouldn't it be strange for P&F to buy anything but what they bought? I'd say they bought what you'd expect them to buy considering their store profile.
Black market carry brands that are known to most scandinavians and brands that on top of that are cheaper.. But they depend on those brands being sold at retail, my guess is that a store like P&F are trying to create a hype in order to sell Eton and Marc by Marc Jacobs or whatever they're carying, by bringing in R.O., I don't think they depend on the R.O. being sold at retail, or sold at all for that matter.. Sweden isn't ready for Reeeijk O'. Someone please prove me wrong.^^
