    I bought a skirt in Next just after Christmas, in the sale, I just tried it on today and it's too big for me (I'm not as fat as I thought, woohoo! :D) Anyone happen to know if you can return sale stock there? And how soon do you've to bring it back? It doesn't say on the receipt.

    Thanks!

    The store on Opera Lane in Cork said it was same policy, tags on, receipt and you're grand. Refund or exchange :D

    Many companies state there are no exchanges/refunds on sale items. Maybe this isn't true of Next however.

    According to the consumer law you are fully entiltled to return the skirt regardless the sale. Usually you have 28 days to do so. Keep all the tags on and bring back the receipt. As far as I know the only circumstances when you may have a problem returning the product is when it was discounted because of the damage and you were aware of that in the moment of buying it.

    Where do people get this stuff from? According to consumer law people are entitled to nothing. The shop can choose to take things back but its entirely their decision and on their terms.

    Theres nothing worng with the skirt so the OP has no entitledment to anything.

    exactly.

    unless there is a fault with the skirt, you - the customer - is entitled to nothing unfortuneatley.

    it's totally at the store's discretion whether they give you a refund of store credit.

    most stores will however to keep good will between themselves and you.

    Give it a shot, they might offer you an exchange instead of a refund, assuming it's unworn and has all the tags on it. However, if it was in the sale and the price has gone down again, you will get the value of the current price, not what you paid for it.

    You can bring it back but you will only get an exchange at the current selling price.If it was reduced you only get the sale value, you can get something else instead of it or the value put onto a refund card.
    Normal exchange policy is 28 days from date of purchase for a refund with a receipt.
    If you have a gift receipt you can get an exchange at the price that was paid or get the value put onto a gift card.

    cheers guys ill give it a bash and let you know how i get on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Consumer law doesn't apply here - because there is nothing wrong with the skirt, it simply doesn't fit.

    Most stores will have an additional returns policy, this is usually found on the receipt.

    Next are a little different though. Because they don't allow you to try on clothing during their sale, they will happily take it back within 28 days, as long as it is in a saleable condition. Check your receipt for all details.

    my mistake, got carried offfff a bit... :) Majority of shops have return policy in place which also applies to sale stock.

    Sorry for causing confusion.

    I returned a few things I got in the Next sale in Waterford. No problems, got a full refund.
    They had the changing rooms closed during the sale and said that you can return anything with tags and receipt within one month. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,385 ✭✭✭Jemmy


    AFAIK you can return sale items in Next, both them and River Island take sales returns. Have you tried yet? They had the changing rooms closed sure during the first few days.

    Yup I'm well aware that legally I'm not entitled to anything! Was just wondering what Next's store policy was. Sounds like I might be able to get a refund so, woohoo!

    Thanks for all the replies :)
