Roka Lucky dip 2025 thread 2

[NoOneKnowsWhoYouAre]

Thought I'd start a follow on thread as I'm not about till tomorrow and I'm loving see all the LD arrivals, definitely doing some more next week.

1st thread here: www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5237738-roka-lucky-dip

@IlovePond I've just had an updated invoice for my order and they've added the mini dip also which is nice of them. I did wonder if I was being a bit cheeky asking but it makes up for the underwhelming lucky dip at the beginning of Jan.

Good for you @OvaHere and good for ROKA too. Glad it’s worked out!

I’ve got a lovely marine Paddington B that I’m selling for £24 all in if anyone is looking for one.

I’ve just got too many 😬

What's your dream Roka lucky dip order?

I ordered a maxi & 2 midis on Sunday so am fantasising over what they may be (even though odds are that they will be a small black bantry and a couple of Paddingtons!)

I would like:
Maxi - a Heathrow, Gatwick, Waterhouse or Bayswater
Midi - Willesden XL, oval crossbody

All deep colours - no light colours or pastels

Or something completely random like a sample for a new design.

I’m waiting on 2 maxis and the free midi.

Would love a Waterhouse, medium two tone creative waste or stripy Canfield or Gatwick for the maxis. Or perhaps a small Bantry, two tone CW. Not pastel colours or taupe.

For the midi, a Kennington or Paddington but only black edition with blue zips.

cannot wait to get a returned black med Bantry, and small cranberry Bantry and blue or orange Paddington!!! 😉🤣🫣

@MinstrelGirl Let us know what you get... my last order should arrive today... also 2 maxis and a free midi. Someone on FB received a Waterhouse today so let's hope they were working through the Waterhouse boxes when they posted ours out!!

How many people have got hats or gloves in the dip? I'm hoping I might get one in my free dips.

@OvaHere I got a beanie and pair of gloves in my first order on Boxing Day. I did order 4 minis at once though ... they don't tend to send duplicate items and I figured there were only around 6 possible items in the mini dip therefore 4 minis at once would be safe! I got a carnaby purse and small paddington too

Just got my 2 Maxi dips, ordered last Friday. A small Bantry marine & black and a medium Canfield in black with purple zips. Both lovely, but I was hoping for something a little brighter/lighter? That's the luck of the draw, I guess. Is anybody getting non dark colours this late in the LD?

Should I do one more dip???

Just to flag, the knitwear going out is from last winter, not the cashmere on their website. I haven't known anyone get the cashmere in the dip. I had a scarf last year and it was okay, nothing special- low wool content. I gave it to my sister in the end as it seemed a bit too long and impractical for me. Of course someone else may love it!

Well, if you enjoy it, go for it! You might be able to find something you'd prefer in the Facebook group, or on vinted otherwise, but not as fun if you enjoy the surprise 😊

Someone at Roka must really think I like yellow A Bantry and a Canfield. To be fair, both are growing on me! Now what do I keep! I already have a medium Finchley in orange which I use daily, a blue medium Bantry for work, and a small airforce Canfield I got off vinted as a smaller option. And my blue Bantry to swap or sell.

Hi @Peachbubble I just got two bright ones today in the maxi dips, happy to swap your black Canfield for my bamboo Canfield if that would suit the lighter and brighter brief?

I got all yellow too 😂

Hi, I would have gladly swapped, but my daughter's decided she wants the Canfield now!

I currently have 6 bags in my Roka basket including the 2 freebies. Trying not to checkout.

All I really want is a non black Kennington. The only other bag that'd be useful would be a large rucksack or the Heathrow and they seem to be few and far between.

I'm assuming there'll be a ton of bags hitting vinted once this latest batch land so trying to hold off for that. I am very jealous of those of you who have ordered though, excited to see what you've got.

I am now wishing I had ordered another MINI LD to make up my last order to get the ‘freebies’ rather than the random socks I added to my basket. I have roughly two hundred pairs of lovely socks already and only one pair of feet 😾

I’m proud of myself for resisting temptation. I’ve dipped once and my small black bantry is perfect for my needs. The temptation has been real and I’ve filled my basket a couple of times but the reality is that I already own bags that I love that would be similar to those in the midi and mini categories and I don’t want socks or hats or umbrellas (or purses, anything round or bright colours) so it would be mad to dip again.

So why do I want to? It’s the thrill of the surprise I’m sure

Early on Tuesday morning I tried that several times and it didn’t work. Only by adding a pair of socks did I get the free mini as well as the midi.

I went ahead anyway as there were only 3 pairs of socks left.

Although I wrote straightaway to Roka asking to change my order I haven’t had a reply yet. That’s over two days ago, unusual for Roka, so I imagine they are having lots of requests for various things.

I wrote again to Roka straight after making the post above and they have already replied. They have removed the socks, and added a mini to my order.

I wonder what I will get? 😀

That's great. I did the same with the socks order on Monday. Wonder if it's too late for me to email them..... Did you have to pay the difference? I thought the socks were slightly cheaper

I have asked how to pay the difference, but my message was sent less than half an hour ago. I haven’t had a reply yet.

Hilarious - my parcel just arrived - I had bought a creative waste Paddington B (love it) and a mini with free Midi. Got some bright yellow Hampstead gloves and an Airforce Paddington B!

in a dilemma now as I love my current Paddington which is why I bought another one at full price but now I have 3! I love the Airforce colour too but…..argh.

Not keen on the glove colour but hey ho!! Might sell them!

By the way, has anyone ever washed a Paddington B? My original one has some marks…

Unnecessary 1st dip of the weekend has arrived - a small (free) mineral nylon Paddington B (to join my earlier teal Paddington B) - a small nylon creative waste Canfield B in Mulberry/corn and a nylon simple purple Trafalgar B. Love the Paddington and Trafalgar. Another shipping due tomorrow with a free maxi and mini, so I'll see what that yields before deciding whether the Canfield ends up on eBay.

Pleased there isn't anything black!
