American Apparel replies, offers discounts
I initially approved this as a comment, but figured it was worth its own post, just in case some of you wanted to go to their rummage sale, or, worse yet, went to the sale only to get turned away or pushed around. Here’s what American Apparel has to say:
Thanks for posting this. We just put some additional info up on our site but I wanted to leave the info as a comment here, as well.
Right now we’re doing everything we can to run the sale as planned on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. We’re hiring a big security team and working with the police to ensure everyone’s safety and make sure things go as smoothly as possible.
All that being said, we know that today was a disappointment and scary for many of you. For that, we are deeply sorry. Not only do we want to make it up to you, but we want to thank you for your dedication to our company. Below are several options for people who can’t make the sale this weekend or just plain don’t want to anymore. We hope that you can at least leave with a little something.

American Apparel: A Bargain and a black eye
I was trying on my millionth pair of black trousers in a changing room at a Notting Hill thrift shop (preparing for job interviews…you know how it is) when I overheard two shopgirls talking about a major sale this weekend at American Apparel. Items for as low as £1! Lots of stock being put out throughout the rummage! Must go!
Alas…a riot ensued and the store was shut down:
Wow. How badly can a person want a pair of leggings?
Guess this is what happens when you announce your massive sale on Facebook…
