Beyond Retro
Has anyone been to this place?
Is it worth it?
Thanks
Answer:
Check out the website www.beyondretro.com to see if you like the look of it...
I love Beyond Retro, Rokit and Rellik but it's difficult to recommend any one vintage store as the stock is (obviously) always different. It really depends on what you're looking for and willing to pay - but I'd say it's worth having a look even if only to give you some ideas. Sorry if that wasn't particularly helpful :(
Answer:
Thanks Babyzere, I had looked at the website but it's difficult to tell what it would be like.
I saw some stuff in a magazine from there and it looked like an interesting place.
I just didn't want to treck all the way over if it was not a very good place
Thanks for your post! ;)
Answer:
i've only been once or twice, but from what i can remember the dresses and shirts (of which there are many) aren't anything to shout about, mostly shapeless and made of crap materials. however, the accessories are amazing. if you've got time you should also check out Absolute Vintage on Hanbury Street (not too far away) as they have some great sunglasses and shoes and vintage Gucci and Dior heres at very reasonable prices.
Answer:
Thanks Hyperballad, I am definately more interested in the accessories
I can feel here fever already!
Yessss!

Can somebody who's good at photo editing help PLEASE?
Hi,
I have a picture, that O/h wants to edit.
He basically wants the picture to remain the same, but to have the lady in the background edited out..
He has tried several things, but he wants the photo look natural still, not with a blurry thing in the background..
Is that possible, and can anyone help??
ETA The picture might help :o
Answer:
i can give it a go tomorrow (i have to go to bed because i have an obscenely early flight to catch) but it's going to be tricky since you'll need to be able to match the red car as well as remove her. the road wouldn't be a problem but the car could prove difficult.
Answer:
I can't help at all but I just wanted to say you look gorge Miss SC!
Answer:
Oh goodness Bella :o
That's what O.H thinks, which is why he wants the pic to put in a frame :o
This was when I'd just found out I was pregnant, and already felt big bloated....
:lol:
Answer:
Your skin looks just glowing.
Any make up secrets for that or is it your natural glowing self (or pregnancy glow :D)?

I have messed up big time
I was selling loads of stella mccartney gear on ebay, I had 3 tuxedo jackets.
They all sold, and the 2 people who won the size 12's paid immediately and I sent the Jackets.
Unfortunately I sent a 12, and an 8 by accident.
It was only when the size 8 buyer paid and I went to send it that I realised. I emailed both of the size 12 buyers and one replied immediately saying they had the right size. One week later the other emaield saying they had the wrong size and what should they do.
I aplogised and refunded £5 to their paypal account as compensation, along with postage and asked them to return it asap, so I could resend them the correct one and send the size 8 buyer hers.
It has been 10 days and I have heard nothing!
She accepted my paypal payment this weekend but still hasnt replied to any of my emails.
I feel as it was my error theres not much I can do, but Im really letting down the size 8 buyer ( I have explained error and she is ok to wait, but she wont be forever!!)
What can I do???
Answer:
Oh dear, that's a bit of a pickle!
I personally would have waited until I got the 8 back before refunding the money, that buyer has you over a barrel now as she has her money back and an item that she could re-sell on eBay.
I don't think there is much else you can do except perhaps send one last firm (not threatening) email asking her to return the item.
Maybe in future (not that you will do it again!) send a stamped addressed envelope instead of the compensation.
I hope it all works out
Answer:
Oh I didnt refund her the money for her jacket, she wants me to send her the size 12, which i said I will do when i get the size 8 back.
I have sent her ANOTHER email, so fingers crossed!
Answer:
Aha, I understand!
Is there not a telephone number for her on her checkout details?
Answer:
ooh,how annoying!!I owuld ring her or just email her and say very clearly that you are sorry bi=ut you need the size 8 back to send on and you will refund her/send the other out asap after you get it back.Tell her the size 8 buyer has got the 12 if that will speed her up!
