Some may have been placed on sale once or twice but are still in stock. The haphazard nature of the baskets can discourage many people, but you could be rewarded if you put in the effort to search through them. It's possible to find a great price in there.

Give extra effort. Plan a visit to some outlet stores on your schedule.
