Mostly 30-50% off i'm sure. If you go and can't find what you're looking for i'd wait because it will be on sale this xmas on various sites.

Dec 18th, 2012 04:22 AM #18Historically you're going to see decent prices but stock is usually overstock, seconds (last time I checked) promo items and less popular products. You can get a good deal potentially but Imo I'd wait for the boxing day sales at altitude sports, live out there and thelasthunt. They will have current products. Well, except for thelasthunt ... they carry excess or older stock but can be decent deals with extra discounts.

You don't want to buy a large expedition fit jacket just because you usually wear a large and find out that you should have ordered a medium. It happens.
Good luck.Last edited by miss_swan; Dec 18th, 2012 at 04:25 AM.

Arcteryx Factory Sale. Huh. I didn't think they still had a factory in Canada. I thought their stuff was MIC and other low cost countries.
just trolling. Reply With Quote

Dec 18th, 2012 03:08 PM #22Yeah, well, that's true ... but I don't think any of the major high end manufacturers make any of their products in North America ... I may be wrong. Actually i'd like to know if there are any ... Originally Posted by tdracer

The Veilance line is made in Canada last time I checked, which brings me to my question, for those who have gone in the past, has there been/will there be any Veilance items?

Hey Folks...
An important reminder: Arcteryx's Factory Store has *no warranty*, no returns, no exchanges, zippo. For me, the reason I would want to get Arcteryx is for their lifetime warranty... without it, 75% off is the maximum I would ever pay for one of their coats.

Dec 18th, 2012 08:26 PM #25Reason being is most of the items have defects... I think anyway. Most of the heavier gore-tex jackets here are still in the $300 range ($500 normally) so it's honestly not like you're getting the epic steal of a lifetime. Softer/lighter jackets ranged from $100-250 iirc. Also, there have almost NEVER been jackets in size S, so if that's what you're looking for don't bother. I've been to four of these sales and I've only seen one jacket in a small, and I line up on Fridays each time. Originally Posted by Scott M.

OMG, the lack of warranty is a total dealbreaker IMHO.

Dec 20th, 2012 02:58 AM #30You'll be able to get a Gamma AR jacket for a decent price without going to the factory store. You'll probably be able to get the same or better pricing than the factory store this boxing week ... with full warranty. Check liveoutthere.com or vpo.ca for sales ... have you checked out the Gamma MX jacket? Originally Posted by user681
