    Hi everyone - I think they are putting anything in these now. I got mine this morning - very disappointing:

    - one necklace, it arrived broken in two places, - the hooks linking the beads are slack and badly made

    One plastic bracelet - horribly and cheaply made

    an unidentifiable black elastic strap - like a hairband? No decoration on it

    A plastic heart neacklace with a label on it saying "nylon jewelery"

    Absolute rubbish, and the only half decent item is broken. You could get better than this at a poundshop. I would not order from them again and this stuff is not good enough to give away to a jumble sale

    I'd send it back. Have you emailed them to see what they say?

    Hi thezib - I hope it's only me that got a parcel of partly broken rubbish (and only 4 items). I have checked the website and I can return the pack for a refund, but I must return the parcel recorded delivery and include a covering letter as to why.

    By the way, I ordered mine on 9th of March and it came this morning.

    Mine was crap!

    I got a big elastic head band thing
    TINY tortoise head band
    Plastic flower on a random bit of ribbon
    And 2 silvery hair clips (the same size as the normal black ones)

    :mad: waste of £7!

    Sorry to hear that Kayte - I feel the same about what I got. It seems to me that MSE putting the deal on this website has overwhelmed the company and they are just putting anything in. A friend of mine ordered hers and got really lovely things from them, and ten things! I think we have been unlucky. It isn't worth me returning it as I live out in the country and to visit a post office to do recorded delivery will cost me a lot of money and half a day wasted. It isn't worth it financially. So I have got my jewelery pliers out and repaired the things to give away to a jumble sale.

    I ordered as soon as it was posted aswell. I got moved to "awaiting stock" so knw I wasn't going to get the best bits but I thought it would be better. Glad I didnt pay the £25 it should of been!!

    No I wont refund either just going to whack it in the present box and see if there are any girls presents due at xmas LOL!

    What a shame Kayte :(

    I recieved 6 items this morning (ordered shortly after you posted)
    I got
    necklace
    bracelet
    hair clip
    elastic head band thing
    dangly earrings
    Flower pony band

    So not too bad by the looks of some of the stuff peole have recieved

    Oddly enough I also ordered a flower hair clip with the jewellery ordered and have not recieved that it says it will be despatched separately (probably in somebody's jewellery parcel!)
