Aww, no can't find a fleece anywhere apart from eBay from US sellers.
Amazon has the same stuff as the other two places as well.
I'm sure your neighbour won't mind! It looks like they sell their range in Target over there, which is worth popping into regardless when over there.

I have to agree with Toffees81. I tried to get Kiddicare to
Price match the Maxi cosi Axiss offer this week. As the black version was out of stock they wouldn't price match ( which is reasonable). I immediately responded to kiddicare's email and advised them that I wanted a price match on the confetti version which was the same price and was in stock.(12pm) They didn't respond until the next day but only after I had received an email from Amazon advising that the price had gone up to £230 again. I sent them a screen grab showing that it had been £113 when I had sent my email but they replied stating that they would not rely on the screen grab.

This is exactly the same that happened to me! I then tried black reflection which is in stock and delivery in 2-3 weeks but they refused again! I like you sent a screen shot but got no reply! I don't think they have ever honored there price promise! Have now ordered off amazon as still a very good price.

The last time I tried to use Kiddicare's price match, because Kiddicare offered free next day delivery on orders over £20 at the time, they decided that the Amazon item to pricematch would have to include paying for next day delivery. The item worked out more expensive by using Kiddicare's price match, although they guarantee to be cheaper. Go figure. They wont last long with bad customer service.

See my post on 27/10/13 re price match, be interesting to see the impact this has on them as a business

Before my eldest was born, I asked them to price match an expensive pram for me. At the time they didn't have the additional 25% off, it was just a price match. They said I had to buy their product at the full price and then within x amount of days send them proof it was cheaper elsewhere.....as you can imagine I just ordered from the cheaper retailer!
Maybe they are heading in that direction again?

Oh no I hope they don't end the 25% of the difference price match! I have to say I've used the price match a few times and its always been honoured. Got my jumperoo for £44 and my brother max scoop highchair normally £340!! for £170. Also got my britax b-agile buggy for £130, it's usually £200 ish

Ps I've always price matched against amazon (or mothercare with next day del) and I am an amazon prime member so everything gets delivered next day anyway for free, everything has always been in stock for immediate dispatch too...

this is similar to the experience I had with John Lewis for a price match.. - pay full retail, complete a form which they will then kick back up for approval and I may get a refund... err no thanks...

Can anyone confirm that Kiddicare has stopped adding 25% of the difference with their price match?
There's no mention of it on the T&Cs page now since it was updated 31/10/13.

EDIT: Nevermind, I tweeted them and they confirmed they no longer do the additional 25% Shame.
