    So far all of the sale things I have received from Next have been beautifully packaged and arrived in pristine unworn/unused condition with all tags intact.
    I hardly got anything at the main sale and its only the last couple of weeks that I managed to order some things that I really wanted that have come back in stock.
    Ive never ever had anything thats been dirty or secondhand from Next. I can only imagine its most unpleasant ....... hopefully those incidences are few and far between!!

    I've shopped the Next sale for a long time and have, to date, only received one rather hairy jumper. Everything else has been great. I've no qualms about shopping the clearance section as a lot of what you are seeing now is the stock which was returned from the stores and has now been amalgamated before making it's way to the clearance outlets.

  • You need to be extremely quick as soon as there's an update as most items will be one-offs in each size. The main problem is not knowing when there's going to be an update. Majority of the updates are around 3.30-4.00am so almost everything will be out of stock by the time most people are up. I just happened to check again this morning at the right time and got quite a bit of stuff.

    I find the updates tend to differ. I went on at 6.30 this morning and there had been no update. Then went on at 8:00 and there had been loads of updates
  • I agree, most of the updated clearance stuff is great for catching the stuff you missed out on but lately ive had some right rubbish! a dinner set arrived all smashed, a shelf came with the box all ripped and screws missing and ive ordered the same box of baby boy socks twice and each time received the girl ones. Apart from that its been great. It is really annoying when you add something to your basket and it comes up OOS. Wish the item would disappear from the section once OOS :mad:
    Thank you to everyone who takes the time to post comps :beer:
