    My courier normally comes about 9.15 or so (regular as clockwork lol) and my 1st order was placed at 5.07. I haven't received anything yet but keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow - there'll be some things going back if they don't arrive tomorrow ;)

    I keep badgering them for a VIP slot as its infuriating to know there are free slots when I want one! All I get is "its done randomly" - don't believe it as work colleagues get them every sale whereas I've not had 1!

    Do you think if I order at normal price items will come reduced?

    I very much doubt it. It depends if it is worth the risk for you?

    One guy told me to call at 8.00 on the 27th - anyone had experience of what its like to get through on the first morning of the non-VIPs sale?

    To be honest, having seen what's actually left in the VIP sale, unless you are a size 6 or 8, I'd not bother if you can get to a decent sized store. I'd be taking my chances in the queues at the stores rather than trying to phone in for the scraps that are left online unless there is something specific you are wanting that is still in stock. Sorry to sound so unencouraging, but the sale stock online appears to have been decimated since yesterday afternoon!
