Bought two summer dresses, and next week they are 50% off

[Mercythompson]

Is there anything I can do or is it just tough?

[Thepursuitofhappiness]

Well if you've got the receipts and tags still on, unworn, of course legally you can take them back and buy them again.

[londonrach]

Take them back. Seen people in m and s bringing back and re buying at lower price at customer service

[londonrach]

Need to have tags in and receipt

[Mercythompson]

I don't have tags in. Do have reciept. Any point in asking shop to refund the difference?

[houseisfallingdown]

Buy them again next week and take the ones with tags on back with the higher priced receipt.

[SuburbanRhonda]

It's annoying, I've done the same myself, but is it such a large amount of money that you would be bothered to go through the cloak and dagger business that house is suggesting?

[londonrach]

Without tags you can't take back. Legally the shop doesn't have to take i tens back if not faulty but most clothes shops do. Only thing you can do is rebut new ones at lower price and return with higher receipt although that's abit morally wrong. You decide

[londonrach]

Items not i tens

[HaroldLloyd]

If you've taken the tags back I can't imagine they will do anything, that's super annoying though.

[londonrach]

Rebuy not rebut

[coalscuttle]

Actually you have no legal right to take them back unless they are faulty, tags and receipts or not.

[BikeRunSki]

The thing about sale stick, is that you can't be sure they'll have your size/colour. Sometimes you have to pay full price if you really want something.

[HaroldLloyd]

If you've got the tags and receipts and they were only bought last week they would be within the timescale that shops normally allow a return so there would be nothing stopping you taking them back.

[LightastheBreeze]

Yes, do has house says, I'm always doing this, you just have to hope there are some left

[HaroldLloyd]

Sometimes they mark the labels to show they were part of a sale though. Worth checking that.

[arethereanyleftatall]

Legally, you've no legs to stand on. Bit fr

[arethereanyleftatall]

But from a customer service perspective you might get somewhere.just try it.

JL are brilliant for this. I bought some Ash Bowie's just over 2 weeks ago for £155 and last week they reduced them to £77.50! I called them and as I had bought them in the last 30 days they refunded me £77.50 as part of their brand match. This also happened with an iPad mini my DH bought before Xmas, they reduced them temporarily by £40, he called as he had paid the extra a couple of week before and they refunded him the £40. This is why I buy everything possible in JL!

[wineoclocktimeye]

I would see if I can get them in the sale and then take back with the old receipt. But, as said above, they may mark thee tags of sales items, Next definitely do this.

[clucky80]

*sorry not brand match, the 'never knowingly undersold' policy.

[londonrach]

Clucky JL refuses to price match if you buy with cash. I complained to head office on this. As only £10 I didn't follow it up and bought the camera at cheaper store. I think head office said the manager in the oxford street got it wrong but cant remember now. Was too impressed at time.

[clucky80]

Oh Londonrach, that's annoying. I get most things from JL online as I have a local Waitrose down the road and I get it delivered there. The iPad and boots were bought online and refunds arranged through their online customer services.

[londonrach]

Something to do with checking the price at other store and then needing credit card, debit card to refund. Oh well

[TestingTestingWonTooFree]

I think houseisfallingdown's suggestion is rather dishonest. I'd maybe try a polite complaint but you've no legal entitlement to anything. I try to wear new things immediately to avoid this happening.

[Mrsdavidcaruso]

Actually Testing it could be construed as obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception which is a criminal offence.
