I know some of us are waiting for another lucky dip to arrive and thought it would be nice to continue the chat.

Just popped on to say that as part of the Paperchase sale there is 20% off Rika bags.

Oh no, will this ever end ! Something to replace the lucky dip and tempt us !

@Whataboutye I'm in Ireland and am waiting on my order. I expect I will get an email asking for an invoice too then. Out of interest, how long did it take for your bag to arrive?

5 days in total, from when i ordered it. including being stuck in Athlone, for 2 days. I didn't even have to send the invoice. It arrived at the house, before I had the chance to sent it. 😀 customs opened it though. And cleared it. Roka send me the Invoice immediately, so if it comes to that, you'll have it straight away.

I had a long dentists appointment today ( I was very brave and anyway it didn’t hurt at all) and on the way back to the car detoured through the local TKMaxx. It must have been the remains of the anaesthetic confusing me because I seem to have treated myself to a Finchley A in Sicilian orange. £19.99. So not just the dentist making me smile today.

I got the same in one of my lucky dips and I love the bag and the colour 😃

That’s a good price - there was one on my local TK Maxx a few days ago but for £24.99. I might have snaffled the Paddington backpack for £19.99 though 🙂

Small in a Finchley looks medium to me until you turn it round and look at the back panel which shows it is not that deep. The flap and extra room above the straps makes it confusing!

Toddlerteaplease · 03/02/2023 11:41

Was at a pub quiz last night arguing with my friend about what size her bag is. (It's a small) she's adamant it is medium. 🤣🤣 Though I'm completely confused by the sizing. As I'm sure the ones I looked at in a gift shop the other day were medium. Hence why I asked for medium and got what I thought was large.

paintyhands · 03/02/2023 09:57

I’ve been sucked in and ordered a second - I’m not sure why because there are a few colours I’m not keen on and I don’t like the Bantry C. Fingers crossed!

I've Just bought a multi coloured Paddington on Vinted. My first Vinted purchase and a bit worried that it's too cheap!

Vinted is often unbelievably cheap, and you have to confirm you're happy with the item before the seller gets their money, so I wouldn't worry.

ScienceRocks · 03/02/2023 08:52

@EachandEveryone I'd be very interested in your maroon if you are interested in a swap!

ScienceRocks · 03/02/2023 08:45

I succumbed to this thread and have been sent a Canfield B Small in mustard. Really not my colour at all! Would anyone like to swap?

@bringincrazyback Yes, you do, but I am obsessed with my sherbert Finchley 😁

Perhaps we should start a support group 😁

Ooh, a new thread, I've only just seen this!

Amazed they're still advertising the lucky dip, they must have started off with a heck of a lot of bags!

I mustn't crumble again though as I've already done two lucky dips and also succumbed to two on Vinted. Sooo naughty. 😊

Still, I'm going on holiday next week and excited to see how much I can fit into my medium Bantry C. My small Finchley A is doing duty as new laptop bag and my fuchsia Oxford (bought on Vinted) is my current handbag. Still deliberating over whether I can justify keeping my second medium Bantry C, but I love the colour (Sherbet) so much I don't think I can bring myself to part with it. I need help don't I. 😆

@Toddlerteaplease Do you want to swap your red Finchley for my mustard Canfield small?

Roka Sample Sale part 2

jessicama · 02/02/2023 13:19

Mine's arrived! A medium Finchley in Marine... pretty happy with that. Think it's a great size for overnight work trips.

Thanks everyone for the inspiration!

Ok no problem
