    so far I've only seen 1 page of items and page 2 has been loading for the past 5 minutes.

    Page 1 had an unbranded satchel £19.99 and pink purse £14.99 - they are not branded so could have been bought for a few quid at a market stall for all I know. There were a few 'designer' brands that I did not recognise going for around £50 ... but no designers I has heard of.

    Now the page has gone back to:
