MSE John Greed Deal

MillicentBystander

Time for MSE to get inolved, I wonder?

Firstly you do receive an e-mail when they are posting. If yours not arrived , check your e-mail to see whether you have it.

I have received it today. I cannot say i'm impressed.

This set can't be £100 anyway but there is a reason why it was reduced to this price I believe.

Earrings are okay.

Bracelet fits my wrist well but I have very thing wrists.

Another very disappointed customer. The whole set looks very cheap and I feel a fool for buying a pig in a poke! Obviously I didn't expect to get a something worth £100 for less than £15 but I really did believe it would be a real bargain since is was through the MSE site.

I asked my wife if she wanted these and she said yes so we ordered 2 pairs so that she could give the other as a gift.

I then saw the above negative reviews but thought would reserve judgement until we saw them.

I didn't tell my wife about the reviews as I wanted her uncoloured view on them, but it took us both a couple of seconds to decide to return them.

As others have said, they actually are the dimensions given, but the photos on the website have appeared to slightly oversized them as in reality they are quite small.

Like others I only purchased because it was "promoted" by this site.

Will think twice in future.

I ordered two of these sets on 12th and delivered 15th. Was slightly disappointed on the 'presentation' but not a deal breaker. Worse though, there is only one set in the envelope and I have paid for two!! Anyone else missing a set?
Update:
I spoke to customer services first thing Monday morning. No quibble at all. Missing set received next day.

I ordered three sets ..received one ... And that was missing a pair of earrings not impressed one bit. The half set I have received for my £40 ish quid is going back asap. Can't believe MSE promoted this "offer" there is no way this is 99p's worth never mind the supposed "value" of this set. Feel very ripped off.

I too am highly dissatisfied with my purchase, not worth £3 in my opinion, never mind what I paid for it. They have conned us all.

How come we're getting the BIG SILENCE? I would have thought at the very least, we'd be assured that John Greed 'offers' wouldn't be listed anymore on MSE.

I'm another very disappointed customer. Bought this as a gift, but looks like it should be in a cracker. Bracelet is a child's size. The advertised lengths include the extension chain, which feels a bit disingenuous.
I too would like some comment from MSE on this "offer" which they supported.

meanmum

i just measured mine and they are both 2cm shorter than the advertised lengths - which effectively makes the bracelet no longer an adult size. I would call this Significantly Not As Described.
I also think the earrings look slightly different from the picture, I can't see the flat bit with 625 on it.

What do others think about how well yours match the description?

I do think that MSE should give us some advice on this - they say "all of these deals are checked and verified by the MSE team" and in this case it was a deal involving a special MSE code.

Hi folks,

Thanks very much for your feedback. I’ve let our contact at John Greed know that many of you are unhappy with the pearl set and it’s going to set up a dedicated email address for all MSE users wishing to get a refund. As soon as I have it, I’ll post it here.

Your feedback here has been really useful, thanks again for posting.
