Not sure if this is an ebay or Next question

[breatheslowly]

I've seen this dress on ebay. It is described as Summer 2013, does anyone know why is it only on ebay and not on the Next website? I am interested in the retail price.

have you asked the seller if it is 2013 stock? That is what I would do.

[Iamstressed]

It is £15. Though I am not sure why the seller would sell it for less than that.

[fergoose]

her other stuff is 2012 - I don't think she is being honest. I doubt she could buy 2013 stuff wholesale yet.

She might have got in the next summer 2o13 preview :)

[breatheslowly]

Does the Next summer preview mean that it will be available to buy again on the Next website in the next few months?

[fergoose]

and how would the seller be able to get hold of it wholesale before it is for sale with Next?

[ChesterCake]

It could be a sample?

My DP works as a photographer for a online company and they get the samples in a season in advance and are allowed to keep them 90% of the time

Next doesn't do current collection wholesale . Ask seller for the POS nr from inside label , phone Next and ask them.

[breatheslowly]

But will it turn up in the shops soon or is my only option to buy it at inflated prices (with P&P taken into account) from ebay?

[BrittanyBrighton]

Seriously it is quicker and quite easy just to phone Next , they will locate the item even if you give them description of the dress.

[Iamstressed]

It will be sold in the shops at £15 later in the Spring.

[fergoose]

so how come the seller has got hold of stock in advance?

Could be from an international site. Next Australia has summer stuff on it ahead of the uk site.
