Roka sample sale

[BriceNobeslovesMurielHeslop]

Has anybody tried this? A mystery bag for £29.95?
I’ve fancied a Roka backpack for a while but haven’t quite decided. They have this offer just now but I’m aware it could go disastrously wrong.

Haha the sherbert is so very, very pink! I want to like it as I do love a bit of colour, but it’s just too much like my daughter’s lol doll bag. 😁

So I've been following this thread as it's been so entertaining! I was just about to check out on the lucky dip but.. I'm too fussy with colours and know I'll end up with something I don't like. So I've just ordered one I know I'll like for full price but 15% off with the blue light code. Wouldn't have considered this brand without this thread.

I wonder why most people are using Vinted rather than eBay-are the sellers fees lower?

Just got notified mine has been picked and despatched. Will probably take a few days to arrive as in Ireland. Hoping for a small in a bright colour. Ecaterina picked mine. Think she's new! Hope she delivers....

I was very tempted to do the lucky dip again, but after browsing Vinted I ended up succumbing to a Paddington backpack in Fuchsia and a medium Bantry C in sherbet - oops red-faced 😂

So I'm definitely out now. I'm really pleased with the orange Finchley I got in the lucky dip too and super impressed with how much the 'small' holds, so I'm glad I saw this thread.

Rest of January is definitely a no-buy now! 😂

My second bag is due to be delivered tomorrow, got my fingers crossed for a Finchley this time in a colour that is preferably not green 🤣

My DSis had Ecaterina as her picker.

Of course, it could all be done by robot with random human names assigned to make us feel that there’s a personal touch (this is DS’s take on it).

It says they can't be returned.

Just got an email saying mine will be delivered tomorrow - I ordered it earlier this afternoon!

Am now worried I'll get something in sherbet

Ali packed mine - come on Ali, anything but sherbet (or lime or lavender) please.

If this thread was started by Roka's marketing team then what a success that was 😂I'm really tempted to go for another one but really don't need any more bags...

Team Ali 🤣

Mine's been dispatched too, picked by Guna....please don't let it be pink!

@WarningToTheCurious - think Ecaterina is in Germany as just checked and looks like it's coming from there. I thought my last one came from UK though but not 100% sure about that. I wonder do they have different stock in Germany for the lucky dip....what did your sister get?

😂😂 exactly my thoughts. I've listed mine but if it doesn't sell, I'm using it as a gym bag!

I'd love that if you fancy a swap... 😉

@OC1977 Finchley medium in lavender.

DSis was happy with it.

Ooh you did well to snag a Paddington backpack! There's not been many on here.

Sorry @mightymam , this is my second one and my first was a lavender (which I really like and have been using today). I think I'm sticking with the citrus too.

My husband will have me sectioned when he realises I've bought two new rucksacks in the space of a week...

But you’ll have a birthday coming up at some point and you’ve solved his gift dilemma?

Win win.

I used mine today and whilst initially not being keen on the colour I really like it now. It's also very comfy, I walk to and from work (about 8k in total) and it's much comfier than the bag I was using. I'm glad I stumbled across this thread! I've also enjoyed seeing all the other bags too

This thread has been so much fun I wish I could justify having a second go!

Ah ladies I’m so disappointed, it looks like I’m not getting mine. In Ireland and my bag was coming from Germany. It’s just showed up on the tracking information that it’s been returned to Deutsche Post. My address was 100% correct so I don’t know what the problem is. I’ll give it a day or two before I contact Roka.

I'd love to swap with you! I have a Bantry B in mint....
