@Theteapotsbrokenspout@PretLea
The issue was a pokey bit on one of the shoulders which I pointed out at the Kindred event , one of the other ladies was wearing the coat and it had a small pokey bit she reckoned was the hanger . I decided to buy as they were giving discount on everything that morning . Later found it can be pressed out using damp cloth , I don’t own a steamer .
In fact the poke was at the end of a small curved seam and because the cloth is thick it hadn’t been flattened down properly when finished.
It looks fine now .
Feedback from lady wearing it was that it’s v warm.
I will probably keep it .( But also bought a jacket )
It looks great with dresses and boots, gabi type trousers …but sadly not with Annie jeans.
I hope they resolve the issue and put it back on sale .

@Theteapotsbrokenspout I actually appreciated the transparency from CS, but absolutely shouldn’t have quality issues at that price.

Sorry @OftenOrange in my mind you’d steamed it. Glad yours is fine now, and I’m also hoping they resolve the issue so I can buy one.

@ScottishMouse 😆 Ha! Hopefully Goldilocks will be along soon.

@dudsville 💡Genius! That's exactly what it must be. Maybe the Toast technique is to lob them?

@Theteapotsbrokenspout 🤣 Plumps cushion on the naughty chaise ...

Been looking at Reworn and bought a velvet pinafore. I actually think some of the prices are ok, bar the fact that people have donated it to toast FOC- god knows why!!

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 19/10/2023 13:12

@Stravaig 🤣🤣

Thank you again everyone and I'm actually quite shocked that so many of us have had had bad experiences. It's really not what you'd expect from Toast. My birthday trip is now postponed because of weather warnings - hopefully Sunday now. Haven't heard back yet but I will let you know what Toast say

I'm off to look at the reworn pieces. There is the most beautiful vintage leather sort of peacoat on the FB group (or at least there was a few days ago). It's absolutely TINY but if you're a small size 6/8 I really recommend you go and have a look. I would buy it in a flash if if fitted me!

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 19/10/2023 13:20

I notice a few of the reworn collection are described as:
'New: Pieces from past collections that have never been worn'

Stravaig · 19/10/2023 13:53

Lest anyone think I'm only ever agin Toast, the new linen-silk botanical jacquard fabric is stunningly gorgeous. The shapes are a bit odd, mind.

Snowyowl78 · 19/10/2023 14:07

I’m also trying the pond dress from reworn!

Noodle421 · 19/10/2023 14:19

I’m very happy with my Sturlini lace-ups !

Oooooh, @Noodle421 , I love those!

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 19/10/2023 14:31

Lovely @Noodle421 Smile

ScottishMouse · 19/10/2023 15:19

Does anyone know if reworn items can be returned? I can’t see that it says otherwise anywhere.

Stravaig · 19/10/2023 15:32

The air smells so wonderful it's luring me outside, despite the hoolie. Maybe if I weigh my pockets down with giant mothballs?

Snowyowl78 · 19/10/2023 15:38

@ScottishMouse i think so? Says returns are free?

ScottishMouse · 19/10/2023 15:57

Thanks @Snowyowl78 , that’s what I figured.

faustina · 19/10/2023 16:10

@Noodle421 - they are spectacular shoes!

I guess the good thing about buying anything reworn is you can return, unlike any other preloved sites

OftenOrange · 19/10/2023 16:48

@Noodle421 Beautiful shoes ,can smell the leather,

alliscalm · 19/10/2023 16:49

The reworn stuff is very fast moving! The £75 kantha jacket is a bargain if anyone is interested.

Snowyowl78 · 19/10/2023 17:11

@alliscalm i saw that, major bargain

AFingerofFudge · 19/10/2023 17:44

I'm still slightly amazed that Toast sold these items, asked for them back and are re-selling them. Maybe I should let this go .....🤣

Stravaig · 19/10/2023 17:47

Toast really need to add 'Newest first' to their Sort filter like every other online store in the known universe. Then I can envisage repeat visits to Reworn, in hopes of meeting very old friends.

Stravaig · 19/10/2023 17:48

@AFingerofFudge I'm still with you 🤣

dudsville · 19/10/2023 17:54

"Maybe the Toast technique is to lob them?" 🤣@Stravaig !!!
