Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 30 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many people were dissatisfied with the products, finding them to be of poor quality, not as advertised, and often made from cheap materials like plastic instead of the described fabrics. Customers also reported issues with the pricing, feeling that the items were overpriced for their actual value and could be found much cheaper elsewhere. The refund process was a major source of frustration, with many struggling to receive their money back even after numerous promises. The return policy was also heavily criticized, as customers were often required to send items back to China at their own expense, incurring significant shipping costs, and sometimes the returned parcels were not even delivered or processed.

DO NOT BUY

Product was not as described in the advert. Took ages to come as well. I emailed to say I wasn't happy, was offered a 50%refund and a discount voucher.
I am still waiting on the refund and email them every day. They said the refund was processed 10 days ago but hasn't landed in my account now 13/4 . DO NOT BUY from this company. I wish I'd found this site before I wasted my money

Avoid Bond Bristol

Avoid. Trading as if a UK company but actually in China. Goods received were very poor quality. They offer an option for a full refund but ONLY if you can return the goods to China which costs as much as the items in the first place, alternatively they offer a 50% refund and you keep the rubbish they sent. I opted for the latter. However, the refund has never arrived, despite many polite emails on both sides and many promises that a refund is being processed which has been going on for weeks and weeks.

Product was terrible nothing like the picture, to get a refund I had to pay for the postage to China which was over 50% of the price and it took weeks to even receive the item, I would strongly recommend not purchasing anything form this company

I bought a jumper from them on 10th March thinking it was a “ family” business in Bristol that was closing down. Realised in ten minutes that this was a company in China and sent them an e mail cancelling the order. They replied accepting cancellation and didn’t send jumper but have not refunded the payment despite my repeated e mails. They reply back signed “Anna” and apologise saying it is “ being processed”. I have contacted my bank who have repaid me and are investigating this company.

**** RUN AWAY FROM THIS WEBSITE

**** RUN AWAY FROM THIS WEBSITE! ****
It's a pure SCAM!
I was fool enough to buy from it and read reviews afterwards - at the same day. Which meant I cancelled my order 15 min after purchasing it. So, it has never been shipped and I thought refund would be pretty straight away. I haven't received it yet - it's been over a month. I asked for an update 2 times and in both they told me my refund had been processed. When I demanded a transation receipt as proof, they came back saying "apologies, due to unforseen delays it has not been processed yet". Basically, they lied.
Spread the word - I want this website down!!!!

Don’t waste your money

As others have said; the product advertised was nothing like that delivered. Cheap, nasty material and the pattern was awful. Emailed back and forth as returning the item to China was not an option so they offered me either 100% refund but in vouchers or 50% refund and 60% in vouchers which I took. Needless to say, I will not be purchasing anything with the voucher.

Cheap item, substitute

Cheap item arrived not at all what I ordered, I ordered a zip up, I've received a button up awful looking thing. They're refusing to refund me the return postage cost. They were on fb as a cute little old couple closing their business, turns out the item has come from China!!! Fraud!

Cheap tat advertised as wonderful products. Returned items (tracked) to an address in UK which was on the parcels I received, only to be told that this was not the correct address and given an address in China. I was offered 70% refund but would not accept, so have contacted my credit card company and will sort things out with them.

DO NOT BUY from Ruby & Rose

DO NOT BUY anything from Ruby and Rose/Bond Bristol. They are selling cheap goods from China under the appearance of good quality with pretty pictures. Appalling scammers! Better to buy direct from Temu as it’s a lot cheaper and you can return goods with no penalties.

I am disgusted by this scam

I am disgusted by this scam . What arrived looks nothing like the photo . Cheap, colours are completely different . When looking up how to return I find out the jumper has to be sent back to China and it’s not their responsibility of it gets lost .
Do not fall for this . I’m furious

I’m so embarrassed that I fell for this. I swear this is the last time I will ever buy late at night from a Facebook ad. These are the cheapest-looking jumpers I’ve ever seen, and I hate to think where these scammers get their products from and what the working conditions are like for the poor people who have to make them. No labels, no washing instructions—just overpriced junk.
The designs they’ve copied are beautiful, though. 😡

Complete rubbish

!his is a scam site. the products, jumpers are unwearable. I waited weeks and now it is all going down to the charity shop. A complete fable about the poor old ladies who are giving up their Bristol shop.
These products are coming from Hong Kong and China.
Not even bothering to try to return them to China...Why waste any more money? I will make sure I buy British next time! Don`t buy from here!!
