This study investigated the effects of perceived quality and customer value(utilitarian value and hedonic value) to customer satisfaction on the basis of previous studies. The data was analyzed by reliability, factor analysis and regression analysis using SPSS program. The results suggest that perceived quality had positive effects on utilitarian value, hedonic value and customer satisfaction, utilitarian value and hedonic value had positive effects on customer satisfaction. These findings also provide implications for the marketing strategy in department store context. However, this empirical study has limitations that can be addressed in the future research.
