    In a word - no.


    Protection kicks in at £100 per item, but even then it won't protect against not fitting

    Why not try them on before leaving Turkey, or if buying online, buy from a reputable site with a returns policy that allows the return of ill-fitting items?
  • You'd only have protection for items £100 and over and only if they were misadvertised in size given reasonable tolerances. So if you bought a pair of 36" waist jeans and what arrived were 30" ones that cost £120 then there'd be a possible claim.

    Your better buying from a reputable company though, esp as it sounds that most are going to be under the threashold for S75 protection
