Do we think it's fair that the Boden sale has started on the US site but it looks like we have another week to wait.

There won't be anything left by next week.

(all I wanted was a swimming costume for dd2 and now they're all sold out)

It says on the US site that all the items are shipped from the UK so I guess there will be nothing left by the time the sale starts here. Boo hiss Johnny - what about your British customers?

Yes, the stock levels are the same on both sites so it does appear that the stock is coming from the same place.

I'm cross too. I haven't posted on here in eons and I'm so indignant that I came flying back to MN straight away!

I think complaint letters is necessary.

Johnnie is getting the sharp end of my tongue!

Swedes · 27/06/2008 09:59

Oh! That is maddening.

cupcakes · 27/06/2008 10:00

look at this:

they sell things there that they don't on the UK site

(not that I would want these for my dd's)

That's an outrage

I have gone through my catalogue this morning marking what I want and checked stock on line and was feeling quite smug that everything I wanted was in stock. Now am and not so smug.

I've just sent this:

"I'm interested to see that your US customers get first dibs on the sale while our increasingly-thinly-spread UK pounds must wait an extra week to be spent (by which time stock will presumably be very much lower).

Ah well, plenty of other sales on, I suppose."

(Now I will look a right fool if it turns out the stock is coming from different places...)

wheelybug · 27/06/2008 10:05

Oh I said similar Wessexgirl so we can all look foolish together.

I notice you have kicked off your sale in the USA.

Given the goods will be shipped from the UK why is it not possible for me to register with the US website and order goods for delivery to my UK address? I will happily pay in US dollars. I've just tried it and it's not possible. You have in effect put your US customers ahead of your UK customers. I don't feel rewarded for my loyalty.

Have just sent similar email so will see what they say if/when they reply.
