I'm a bit gutted for them. I think the idea was good but somehow missed the mark. I sent all my last box back but have had great nuggets of items in the past. I liked having it posted too.

My box just arrived. It was due to come on the 11th. There was no invoice enclosed so I don't know at a glance how much things will cost.
The items are ok. A boden skirt, Mint Velvet trousers and 3 own brand (I think) tops/sweaters. Nothing hideous. Will have to try them on later.

Cyclingmummy1 · 13/09/2023 12:04

Mine has prices under each item when I click checkout. I don't need to select/reject.

Cyclingmummy1 · 13/09/2023 12:54

Here's mine - really pleased!

Lovely @Cyclingmummy1. Mine is due next week. I'm patiently waiting on my preview.

WhatapityWapiti · 13/09/2023 13:32

Will you keep both coats @Cyclingmummy1 ? I’m thinking that there may be an issue with them sending too many similar things. Mine is due on the 16th but no preview yet, which seems odd.

AlwaysGinPlease · 13/09/2023 13:37

Just had my preview. Only accepted two items. Awful stuff! Two almost identical hideous summer jumpsuits. All the items were under £50 when I have set my prices much higher for each category. What they sent looked like the dregs of a jumble sale. Really disappointed and at this rate, won't be sad much longer that they're going.

Mine is due 16th too. I emailed them about not receiving a preview and they then sent it.

SheSawSeaShore · 13/09/2023 14:41

Mine’s been dispatched so I’ve looked at checkout to see what they’ve sent. Quite disappointed - there are the two items I selected at preview which hopefully will be nice on; a top that I can see why they’ve sent it but quite dull; a jumpsuit (which I asked for) but with a wrap-style top which I explicitly said I can’t wear; and worst of all a formal workwear dress which I have no use for at all.

I suppose it’s to be expected, they must be limited in terms of what’s left in the warehouse now but I was hoping for better.

SheSawSeaShore · 13/09/2023 14:44

Oh, and I looked up the dress I like from the preview on the brand website and it’s in their sale at 50% off. So if I don’t keep the whole box (which I definitely won’t) it’s not even any cheaper than buying direct

I've had way too many similar things too. The whole point of me joining was to be exposed to brands, trends and shapes I might have otherwise missed

Has anyone ever been sent a second preview if they didn't like anything in it? I have just received my preview and was really disappointed. I've emailed to ask if they can redo it although I suspect it won't be possible...

Itsabeautifuldaytosavelives123 · 13/09/2023 16:40

Got mine today, took a week longer than expected but suspecting they're busier than normal at the moment. I wouldn't have kept it had it been full price, but for 70% off I've kept it, it came to £75.

@Colinswheels no they usually only give you one preview as they offer you more than 5 items at that stage. If what you have chosen is less than 5 items they will just fill up your order with random stuff.

Cyclingmummy1 · 13/09/2023 17:11

Yes, I've kept them both @WhatapityWapiti as it was cheaper than sending one back. I've put them on vinted and will keep the one that doesn't sell.

Colinswheels · 13/09/2023 17:59

Thanks @CaveMum, I guess I'll need to take a chance and see what I get then!

Wtf is it with these jump suits tho ?,, Jesus this thing I've got looks like someone chewed up some liquorice all sorts and then spat them out on what might have been an "ok" jump suit without the vomity pattern , that said why would anyone want cropped wide leg trousers , I look like jimmy cranky in it
Horrendous.

They put two in mine, almost identical. Baffling. I usually look forward to my Fix but this time not so much.

WhatapityWapiti · 13/09/2023 22:36

Got my preview. Liverpool jeans people, should I keep these? Burgundy jeans are a new one on me, and I tend to prefer quite high waisted, not sure how fit is going to be on me. But could be a bargain if they suit and I get the discount.

@fabmaccawhackythumbsaloft youre giving mixed signals, I’m not sure - am I right that you didn’t really like the jumpsuit…? 😂

WhatapityWapiti · 13/09/2023 22:40

I asked for a denim jacket and they suggested a velvet blazer 🤷‍♀️- declined. But there is a gorgeous green blouse in there. and a lovely green jumper too. I do wear a lot of green! (Not with burgundy trousers though!)

Ew, no, just found them online in a different colour. Could not be less my style- I am a size 16 50 year old, for goodness sake 😂.

I really hope I don't get a jumpsuit...

Yeah you really don't want a jumpsuit 😂. I cannot convey how hideous mine is

I doubt I'll even get shut of it on Vinted

If I don't it shall be promoted to "loungewear " and even then I'd think twice about putting the bin out in it
