The best discount store around, period.

by annmintz

I used to go to New York to shop at Daffy's. It is hands down the best discount clothing store for high quality merchandise and ridiculously good prices. I have found $300 Italian jackets for $29.95. Some sizes go fast and especially in transitional times when the next season's merchandise isn't in yet, the selection can be limited. But in general, it's a great place to shop.

  • Pros: Incredible prices on high quality merchandise
  • Cons: Selection can be limited, parking in Center City is always challenging

Four historic floors of quality merchandise that marked down 40 to 70 percent.

In Short
Fashionable finds sell at discount prices in a building which once housed one of Philadelphia's most exclusive department stores. Shoppers find last season's DKNY Jeans and CK collections, overruns from Jones NY and Cynthia Rowley--even haute-couture seconds from Milan. (Iceberg, John Galliano, and Missoni sell for hundreds off their original prices.) Big discounts on last season's styles and designer seconds don't come easy, however. Shoppers who try on before they buy have to change clothes in communal dressing rooms.

daffy you are too hot!

by taegu

Since you have closed your location in northern virginia, I have had to drive to the next closest location which is in philadelphia. I shopped there this sunday the 29th and found the store to be very busy and crowded. Kudos to you for the volume of shoppers but I suffered from arriving too late in the day to pick up any really great deals (I still spent about 100 dollars for home goods). Anyway, the staff was cordial and efficient even while handling a computer glitch in the system. The security guards assisted me in locating my friend and were very professional when they told my friend he could'nt have his drink in the store. And would you please turn down the heat. We were burning up in there! Lastly, please reopen the site in Virginia so we can have access to some good fasions at great prices without having to drive three hours. P.S. my friend insists that I tell you that she adored the imaginative and colorful window displays at the Virginia location.

stylish bargains

by nwang

Daffy's is a shoppers haven and a bargain house for stylish, european clothing. Although the employees could be better mannered and the merchandise more organized, the selection and quality are worth these hassles.

  • Pros: excellent selection, stylish bargains
  • Cons: poor customer service, disorganized

discount designer

by nufan718

It's really only good if you get there when they have new stuff in -otherwise you won't find too much unless your a size 0 or 12 (not much in between).

  • Pros: inexpensive, designer apparel
  • Cons: size selections
