Swimming Costume Buying Disaster Darling

Hi everyone

I am a woman of a certain age and wanted to buy a swimming costume with a skirt. I found a company advertised on Google and the price was in pounds so assumed they were a UK company. When the cozzie's arrived one was too big the other too small so I decided to return them. YIKES. The return address was a Chinese company operating out of the USA and return post was £18. Now fortunately I had ordered through PayPal and could claim my postage back up to £15 and the company Rotita did refund my money but only after trying to persuade me to keep the costumes and get a partial refund. (I would have done this if they had been the right sizes) so beware folks. Or am I just naive. I fell for the flashing banner that said no quibble returns.
On a brighter note after all that shenanigans I found Bon Marche woo hoo

for a minute I thought the disaster refered to a "wardrobe malfunction" on one of the water slides at blizzard beach or something!

I get all my clothes from Bon Marche, absolutely love them and there's one 2 minutes walk from where I work. I've got 2 lovely swimsuits with skirts from there Since I've lost 2 and a half stones this year they are 2 sizes smaller than my old ones

I bought 2 swimming costumes with skirts from George Asda think they were £15 each for my holiday last month so it might be worth having a look there
