I always wait until it's too late and then when I do decide all the best stuff has gone.

What would you buy?
I am thinking of the wool jersey dress in grey or purple, the jersey tea dress or the floaty floral dress- choose 1.
And the merino cardi with a ribbon trim.

Possibly the leather plimsolls.

Possibly some long sleeved Ts such as the knotted front ones.

It wasn't difficult BodenBoy, I just clicked through from an email and it was there on the (overloaded) shopping basket page.

ah ha...see now i might work at Boden but i don't get those e-mails that you guys get, we get emails informing us of what Marketing have sent. And in most cases marketing forget to tell us the employed, the first in the line of fire what the codes are....although that being said they are getting better. We receive the emails of what they have sent you and everytime i know exactly what questions im going to be answering that entire shift on the phones LOL

could you please say how warm the coats are? give them a rating from 1 to 10. 10 being good enough for brass monkies weather, 1 being to take with you just in case when it's really too hot for a coat at all.

Thanks.. it'd be appreciated.

When does the summer sale start BodenBoy? And will lots of things currently showing as 'out of stock' miraculously come back into stock then? Ta.

BodenBoy can you please confirm the money isn't taken until shortly before despatch? Having taken advantage already this week of the 25% day it might explode and hurt someone with flying debris if the preview stuff payment goes out now????

purplepeony · 11/06/2010 17:18

Buch- your card is never charged until despatch of goods- I know- I am a preview veteran.

MagalyZz - We have not had product training on autumn coats yet so i can't answer that at present. The summer coats are all pretty lightweight but who wears a coat in the summer? they would be perfectly fine on those warm/chilly summer evenings.

MrsSeanBean Summer Sale is due to start beginngin of July, now we dont have the exact dates as of yet but its pretty easy to figure out, The sale will be going 'live' on the internet (i think) Friday 2nd July, possibly thursday, now im pretty sure that the call center will be closed that weekend (3rd & 4th) so the sale 'should' technically start over the phones on that follwoing monday. Like i said don't take my word as Gospel because i really am not sure. In regards to more items that are sold out....highly unlikely unless we get returns in on that closed weekend and it might take the warehouse a short while longer than usual to have them uploaded onto the website and our systems in the call center.

Bucharest As Purple peony said, your card is only charged when the items are released from the warehouse to yourself. However (this is something not everyone knows) when the card is Autherised, the full amount of the order is put to one side by your bank/credit card company, now although no money has physically gone from your account, that amount of money won't be available to you immediately so you might want to call your card issuer as you 'may' have problems using the card again. Fortunately this doesnt stay like that until the payment has fully gone through, the money put aside only stays like that on average of 10 working days.

BodenBoy · 11/06/2010 17:41

Some people see autherisations on their statements and think that they have been double charged, this is not the case the autherisation will disapear either when the balance is paid out or after (around) 10 working days, whichever is sooner
