Radley bag packaging

[Akasia]

Hi all,

Done a search but not getting anywere and currently waiting on Radley to get back to me.

I have purchased a Radley bag as a Christmas present from their Amazon shop (same price as on their website, used Amazon for convenience).
Bag turned up today, however it came in a see through plastic bag and wrapped in a bit of paper.
For the price, I was expecting it to arrive in a nice box or wrapped nicely in something.

To be honest, if it was for myself I wouldn't have cared much but seeing it is a gift it is a bit annoying.

I guess what I am trying to find out is if any of you have ordered from them recently and did your bag arrive in a plastic bag or in a nice box?

I haven't bought a radley bag for a few years but when I bought one which cost about £200 it came in a dust bag in a box

A plastic bag but it was for me not a present

Thank you, they've just replied that items sent via Amazon will arrive in a plastic bag and through their own centre in a Radley box. 🙄

I bought one a few years ago and it was beautifully packaged with tissue and a nice box, it felt luxurious. I wouldn't be happy with a plastic bag at all for the price of some of the bags.

In a dust bag when bought in the John Lewis store a few years ago. No box though, but might be because I was buying it for myself so wouldn’t have wanted one anyway. This is the thing with Amazon, it’s convenient but I do appreciate the overall shopping experience better with other (bricks and mortar) stores. Recently popped into Liberty (London) and it was a joy and all I was buying was skincare products.

Is there a dust bag inside it?

I bought this year's picture bag and it came with a dust bag and care card.

It should come with a dust bag. I've seen them second-hand on eBay. How big is the bag as I might have one spare?

Have you opened it up? My Osprey bag (bought direct from Osprey) came with the dust bag neatly folded inside.

Thank you all for your replies.
It does come with a dust bag and I've debated whether to pop it in it but can't see how I'd be able to wrap it up so that it looks nice.
There are a few Radley boxes on ebay so will have a look at that, perhaps can get one from there.
@prettypinkflamingo thank you, that is very kind, there is a dustbag, is the box I am annoyed I have missed out on.

Problem is that the bag is soooo unexpectedly nice that I really want one for myself now haha 😄

I bought a small bag (Radley brand) heavily discounted at T K Maxx recently - it had a polyester-cotton dustbag as well.

My beef is that it's an OK bag, reasonably well-made ((not worth the full price tho') but I just wish they hadn't printed "Radley" on the bag, it means I have to wear it with the back of the bag showing. I really hate having labels - I bought the bag for it's size shape & colour not the brand (I removed the cutesy dog tag as well).

So you probably should have received some sort of drawstring bag for storing the bag.
