Laika- I would say there's actually a good amount of old CCP out there still on the racks (considering the small amount of retailers). Probably not from 5-6 years ago or anything but I have personally witnessed a bunch of 05-06 items on the rack at Maxfield (as well as jewelry) and A still has some select items from SS07. Albert has also spoke of L'Eclaireur having a ton of older items in their stores (not Rue Herold).
Like Faust and I said though, it just doesn't seem like good business to keep thousands of dollars of merchandise on the racks. Even Karlo stated, that what he does is run a business. (from the Article Faust posted recently)

Thanks, that's what I was wondering. I certainly sympathize with the business point of view--I just don't think that's what CCP had in mind when they came up with this policy. [75]
Anyway, just to be clear, i'm not advocating that the stuff not go on sale! [86] I'm just saying there's a logic to it, even if the logic doesn't quite work in practice. There are other ways to escape the fashion system...not sure why they chose this particular one.
