DFW Premium Outlets

What a mess. It looked better when it was an abandoned Hollywood Video.
Well, it’s hot in here. And it smells funny. First thing in the door is a couple old men watching an Asian television show at an extreme volume on one the TVs. Just beyond that is a pile of couches. Literally a pile. Three to four couches on top of each other in a disheveled way. A pile.
There’s a lot of random stuff here. I guess it’s like a thrift store selection. Items have return stickers all over them. Maybe it’s all just returned merchandise bought from bigger stores? I can’t tell. Some of it’s in pretty good shape. Other things are destroyed.
No real rhyme or reason to item placement. Everything is, once again, just piled around the store. Even if there was something cool to be found here, it’s like trying to negotiate a minefield.
Store prices are seemingly expensive. I saw toy helicopters in there for $ 35 that couldn’t have sold for much more than that new. In fact, I think I sold similar ones at Radioshack for less. A medium sized rug (maybe 3×5 or so?) for just under $ 200. It was also rolled up in the only way to get to the back isle, so you trample the rug and its $ 200 price tag because that’s the only path.
I couldn’t stay in there due to the heat and smell. And I’m not sure I’d pay the price marked on a single item in the store. This place needs to be cleaned, completely organized, and then get a little more realistic about pricing before I can see them making it.
