Thanks Op - what a great find...

I tried to order and got this message every single time, even though I tried every card I have. Despite the fact they all work fine on everything else I couldn't get past this message!

I wasn't really happy about this email from body shop and the similar on screen messages I got from them.

When I tried to place an order I kept getting a message telling me they had failed to get authorisation so I tried every card I had, and got the same message for all of them.. I then had an email for every failed order. To top it all the bank said they had authorised every single transaction so if Body Shop wanted to take the payments they could do.

If you aren't allowed to order certain items etc I would rather get a message that says "unable to complete this order" or something similar. I think it's out of order to send you emails and display on screen messages pointing the finger at the bank :eek:

Mine came but I don't think it was worth £7.50 never mind £35!! Aw well, fingers burned, won't get caught again!!

I've just read my post again and realise how snotty it sounds!! Am very sorry:o I just wanted to thank the OP because although it didn't suit me, it has benefitted a lot of people.:T

Mine came today and I'm very pleased with them, a good sized bag with pockets and places for brushes etc, the items inside it are on the small side but smell gorgeous and will be used.

I've got them as christmas presents for my DD's and will be filling them with freebies.

Thanks to PAP who showed me the link.

Mine has just arrived via UPS and i'm really pleased. The vanity case itself is unisex , I wouldn't say it's military style! I agree it's perhaps not worth the full £35 but it's not far off when you add up the stuff inside plus the bag itself.

I ordered 4 and used a code for a fiver off so they only worked out to £6.25 each and i qualified for a free gift which is a full size mango body butter which they sell for £12.50! so mega bargain!

I've just submitted a more positive review on the bodyshop site too , some people are far to fussy for £7.50! lol!

Many thanks to the OP xx

Ordered two and had them sent to a friend as I am on holiday. Told her one is for her. She has e mailed and is delighted with her pressie, so thanks very much to op. Can't wait to see mine!

After hearing very mixed reviews of the green £7.50 vanity case i thought id go for the £10 one (number 62206) but there are no reviews?! Anyone ordered and got this one?! It does looks lovely if it comes as it says it does!

I ordered 5 for all my best friends for a xmas pressie! No squabbling over who got what this time...came to £50 then with the 15% off code went down to £42.5 then TopCashBack (fingers crossed it tracks) is 15% which takes it down too £36.125 which is £7.225 each BARGAIN!

Thank you very much OP!!!!!!!!!

Wow, thanks for that, I just got a beauty bag and a vanity case, for £17 delivered and I went through Quidco too! I'm nearly sorted for Christmas!!
