    I just ran their address through google maps and and it came up with Access Self Storage. I wouldn't touch this with a bargepole to be honest.
  • I just checked on UKdata about this company as I have never heard of them before. This is what I found

    Looks like they are a pretty new company, only registered the end of September this year. I am a bit wary of buying from them to be honest, well until I can find out a bit more about them. The clothes etc... look too good to be selling for a fiver. I also think, if something is too good to be true...it usually is! :cool:

    Sounds like they are running things from a storage unit, maybe to keep costs down. Delivery by royal mail by the weight - sounds like they are just using normal parcel delivery instead of a courier. I know companies have to start somewhere but I'm not risking my money here :eek:
  • Some good bargains, but I hate when they don't tell you how big the bags are. You could end up with a Spinal Tap Stonehenge situation IYKWIM :)

    Some of the stuff looks like it belongs on crappy market stalls :/
  • Looks to good to be true,some lovely boots on there,sooo tempted,just wary...lol
  • Looks like bankrupt stock from the independant high street shops that didn't make it this year. It makes sense if they are selling from a warehouse also. Keeping the cost down will allow most of this stuff to go for a fiver. Its mostly old trend stuff so the sell by date is near (apart from the knitwear obviously) At least your covered by Paypal if something does go wrong. Worth a shot for the winter boots.......(not that i can afford them) :(
