    Thanks for the reply. I think I'm gonna leave the sale. All the decent suits are sold out online and I can't be arsed to queue Saturday. Plus you say the suits are 'ok'. I was hoping their top end suits would be a bit better than that but if the top retail cost is £250 I guess I can't expect too much.

    Whether they are "O.K." depends what quality you normally strive for.

    Let's face it, they are not Donna Karan or Hugo Boss.

    But I have quite a few, and for roughly £50 a suit in sales, they are bargain in my eyes for the quality provided. They are well cut, properly lined and not made from cheapest viscose that you can buy.

    I have to say though - I like fitted and they seem well fitted to me (well, not all of them, but you can see which ones are and which not)

    Just logged into Next to check my account - my VIP slot was last night 6 - 11 and it says I'm within my VIP slot now??? how strange - haven't booked another slot. I MUST NOT buy, I MUST NOT buy!!!!!! ;)
  • I like them fitted as well. The quality level I'm after is probably around M&S/TM Lewin level. I just think I could end up queuing and getting elbowed to get in and find someone has picked up all 40L's for the decent suits or there's not matching trousers :s

    Definitely I think superior to M&S suits - if you get anything from the Next Signature range of suits particularly - find the right fit and you have a REALLY nice suit that seems WAY more expensive than even if you'd got it at full price. Pretty well made and beautiful fabrics. But getting a really good tailored fit can be difficult with Next suits I find!

    And yeah - at sale prices, they are a very very good bargain.

    Keep checking the website after a few days - you will most DEINITELY keep seeing the sizes you missed out on, suddenly re-apprear. Over many years I've ended up getting the EXACT suit I want in their sale, a few weeks sometimes after the sale has started!
  • Ok, thanks. So they keep the sale prices on their suits for a while do they? I might try a few on in store tonight so I know what I like and what sizes I like and then I can keep an eye out for them?!

    If anyone is in Central London. the next sale usually starts on the Friday before the actual sale in Victoria (and Liverpool St I think), so should be on tomorrow.

    That's a good idea.

    Yep - anything that's reduced in the sale - will never go back up in price - the sale price is now that item's price forever. All the items stay on the sale website for the rest of the season if they are in stock - and as I say, sizes keep popping back up all the time as customers return things or stores send their sale stuff back to base!
