MyHabit is gone too. Amazon absorbed the merch from that site. A shame, because Amazon has become too overwhelming, too overseas, and you don't know who is really selling you merchandise. Via search engines I've found regular eBay and Bonanza sellers, (not even eBay stores) listing items on Amazon, so it's not just new, retail merchandise, it's becoming a garage sale site.
Hautelook and Rulala have been the longest standing sample sale sites, and I've shopped successfully with both sites often, joining each within months of their opening more than a decade ago. Gilt has streamlined since Saks came along, and I shop here primarily because the merchandise amongst these top three is similar - they take turns offering many of the same brands and styles. However, Gilt's monthly flat rate shipping fee is smart and keeps me loyal. It's a deal breaker if I have to pay $9.95 shipping on a $20 splurge item.
Zulilly feels bargain basement to me, so I"ve never shopped there. I like to save, but also like the dept store feel the others offer. Beyond the Rack from Canada used to be great, offering quality brand names, now its primarily 'no name' overseas made items, with a few brand names here and there.
Ideeli/Ideel was the go to for years, and I, like many others, am saving lots of money since they closed. The declining economy has negatively impacted quality fashion, and caused the decline of the online sample sale sites. We flocked to these sites to save big on high end fashion that was otherwise outside of our budget, and designers had a cost effective marketing tool, us.
Hopefully, things turn back around in the near future. Until then, luckily, the 90s are back, and cheap, ripped and man made, or 'vegan' clothing is back in style!

All as mentioned but as Doreen mentioned none with the variety as ideel. Try Tobi for ladies trendy wear. Good luck and let me know if you happen up on anything.

I like hautelook and gilt, however both have been bought by the big companies (hautelook is now owned by nordstrom & gilt by saks).
