I have bought the batiks from Marshall's and they are quality fabric. I would put them on the level of the LQS quality. Have had no issues with them. It is worth a road trip to travel to Batesville, AR, it is like being in Fabric Heaven. They also sell by the bundle, have batting, sheeting, backing fabrics, you name it, they have it. Their prices are great, too. My favorite is the $1 tables. Flawed fabric, sometimes small, sometimes big are there and you can buy what you want of each piece.
