Next VIP Sale
Comments

it wouldnt bother me not getting a vip slot if others werent greedy and bought everything to stick on ebay! Then there would be some left for the non vip's
Perhaps they should set a limit on how much people can buy for? Buying things just for the sake of making a quick few £s is so selfish. If you want it, buy it, if not leave it for someone who does.catch220 -

Why can't Next just offer everyone a vip slot but say places are limited so first come first served? At least then people can't moan that they didn't get offered one! TBH if you don't get one the first day then it's a waste of time anyway as after that it's mostly sold out!0

I agree that buying to resell on ebay is not fair but can not imagine how to put a limit on how much you are allowed to buy for.
Next wants to get rid of all stock as quickly as possible and I do not believe they care who buys it so this kind of limit is not beneficial for them. As far as I know there is a limit of how many items you can buy per order.
The other thing is from a customer point of view who wants to buy for example furniture or other expensive items. With this in mind how much the limit should be?0 -

VERY TRUE..... no point afterwards :rotfl:0 -
yes i agree with what you say, and it makes perfect sense, i think where furniture orders are concerned its not the amount of items, like say if you bought a few furniture items and lots of clothing then i think your order will go through ok, i think its limited to 70 items per vip order. It has been in the past.I agree that buying to resell on ebay is not fair but can not imagine how to put a limit on how much you are allowed to buy for.

thats exactly why im not ringing them anymore because both times they gave me different answers, they couldnt even tell me if i was on the list, but others are being told if they are or not, im just gonna wait and keep checking, even though its a pain,:mad:amandajim36 wrote: »i just phoned and asked if i would be getting invite and she told me they have no way of telling. why is it always different answers??0 -
Just phoned CS and was told I will be getting an invite - yayyy!!! - my first one ever. However, as everyone else has been told, I have to wait for either email or letter in post. If nothing received by Monday I need to let them know.0
