Moved to Forum: Original Link

My first ever share on OzB and I hope it's legit. The Buy 2 get 3rd Free is a pretty good deal as is; but the deal clincher here are the suit packages.

The Reid regular suit blazer + pants package sells for $259AUD Shipped.
http://shop.jacklondon.com.au/suits/reid-regular-suit.html

If you bought another suit package, the cheaper of the two gets completely discounted from the final price at checkout. So if you decide to go for 2x Reid Regular Suits, thats $259 ($233 if you signed up to their mailing list and get the 10% off voucher code) for 2x Blazers, 2x Pants! ($116.50 per suit)

I've gotten an order confirmation via email, so I'm hoping this goes through. I frequent Jack London in the city and their suits are tailored for the smaller guys out there, only suit store I can pick stuff off the rack that fits me. Normally, their blazers ALONE go for $359 RRP, so $116.50 for suit + pants is a steal if all goes well.

      which means you neg the deal…?

      edit - looks like neg is gone. Sorry may have jumped the gun :)

  • LaProblematique on 27/06/2014 - 00:14

    Can you help me out, no way to measure chest. I'm normally in between XS and S. For Ben Sherman suit jackets I'm a 36-38 in slim fits. All their jackets seem to start at 44, should I go for one of them?

    • breaks on 27/06/2014 - 00:16

      I have the same measurements, 44 should work for you

    • plentifoo on 27/06/2014 - 00:20

      don't know about ben sherman suit jackets, but i'm a small in their polos, just right across the shoulder and chest, bit too long in the hem. I've tried on 44 at a Jack London outlet and it fits me quite snugly which is what I like, might be too tight for some. I'm chest measures 86-88cm.

  • breaks on 27/06/2014 - 00:15

    Bug in the cart code. If you add 3 suits, it gives you 2 free. Unfortunately, they don't have anything in my size and their suits are wool blends.

    • plentifoo on 27/06/2014 - 00:21

      the regular black for $308 is 100% wool. :)
      Even then anything sub $200 for a woolblend is cheap in Australia.

  • catboss888 on 27/06/2014 - 00:16

    Tried and put 3 suits in cart. Only charges for 1. Most likely a glitch, but worth a go.

      Going to take that up and stitch them all together into a more of a man's size.

  • Kuro on 27/06/2014 - 00:42

    Just paid for 3 Regular Black suits. $308 for 3x 100% wool suits. Hope it works!

    Just put one suit in and it only charged me for the postage….

    • Chewie on 27/06/2014 - 00:45

      So anyway, most likely a glitch then. Plus, no email confirmation as yet

      • aerona on 27/06/2014 - 00:55

        Which suit?

      • Gamblor on 27/06/2014 - 00:55

        I got an email confirmation for a suit that charged only shipping

    • algy on 27/06/2014 - 01:13

    Just ordered 3 suits for $358.

    I'm very skeptical that this will work.

    A staff member will walk into a nasty shock tomorrow morning.

    Plus they have the right to not honor purchase orders don't they?

    edit: Just got my order confirmation.

    'sale items can take 3 - 5 days on top of normal shipping time'

    All the more time for them to cancel the orders

    • aerona on 27/06/2014 - 01:41

      Unsure this will be honoured to, have had past experience with jack london website, and their quality and service has always been good. Shame if they didn't honour for this mistake and gave them a bad look.

      Bought a couple of shirts from them before. Pretty much all I buy formal wise.

  • aerona on 27/06/2014 - 01:15

    The site is really going slow..Think they found out

    • aerona on 27/06/2014 - 01:37

      The Squire suit looks really nice.

  • algy on 27/06/2014 - 01:16

    The site is incredibly slow: But it does work. I cant seem to get the one suit and only pay for shipping, but 2 works.

    Does anyone even know if Jack London is any good? Never heard of them, are they like a Man to Man type store?

    • jammy2 on 27/06/2014 - 09:10

      There are a reputable label, done shows for the Melbourne fashion festival, have yet to see Man to Man feature there yet=)

    ~$135 per Jack London suit? Yes please.

  • Cyb3rGlitch on 27/06/2014 - 01:41

    I honestly thought OZB would be above exploiting glitches by now. Someone's going to have to go through and cancel all of these (probably by hand), for a few guys blindly buying suits that they're unlikely to fit into, and that are in black and have no use outside weddings and funerals.

    • BSC 077 on 27/06/2014 - 01:58

      Well actually, I was planning on buying some suits and my old ones are starting to get worn out. So why wouldn't I go ahead and (attempt) to buy these suits? You expect someone who is looking to upgrade his suit collection to sit there and be like: 'Gee, this seems like a glitch in their system, perhaps I should refrain as there maybe a chance that someone will have to go through and cancel these orders' (""PROBABLY BY HAND!!!!"")

      Yes, there is a chance that they won't fit, but you can exchange them if this happens. Also, you have clearly not set foot in a corporate office environment because then you would know that people do (commonly) wear black suits outside of a wedding and funeral setting. In fact, I wore one today. Does this blow your mind!?

        Twist: You work in a funeral home.

        I expect someone would see this and refrain from exploiting it because it's unethical. Whether you need new suits or not does not change this.

        For what it's worth, I have set foot in corporate offices, and it doesn't at all change the fact that black is on the very formal end of the suit spectrum.

          true that. I'll drum up every excuses imaginable on the face of the earth before being seen wearing black suit jacket in business settings

      This is ozbargain, no one will care that someone might have to cancel them all manually and give people a call explaining why. In fact, there might even be a boycott jack London thread next if they don't ship 3 suits for below cost.

    • veew on 27/06/2014 - 12:07

      3 for 2 offer still seems to work, the glitch doesn't seem to be there anymore though. Would be interested to see if those who ordered with the glitch end up having their orders adjusted.

    Doesn't seem to be working anymore.

    just got a call, my order will be cancelled. refund will take a week or so. it was worth a try to send them broke.

    • Moderatormoocher on 27/06/2014 - 09:35

      Since orders are being cancelled, this will be moved to forums.

  • plentifoo on 27/06/2014 - 11:34

    has everyone been informed that their orders have been cancelled?

    I've yet to receive any notification via email or phone call…

    hopefully they will honour the ones that are reasonable. Paying ~$162 a suit.

    • aerona on 27/06/2014 - 11:36

      Nope, Logical seems like the only one and doesn't say when the order was placed either or what he ordered.

      • wesleysniper on 27/06/2014 - 12:16

        Interested to see cause I haven't received a call either.

        Bought three suits for the price one.

        Fingers crossed!

        Or maybe he's a troll…

        • WT on 27/06/2014 - 13:45

          or maybe they do a woolworths and cancel your order and never make contact.

    Don't think he even ordered anything.

    on hindsight, i should have kept this to myself first, was a little premature for ozbargain. but oh well, always eager to share :P.

  • overlook on 27/06/2014 - 12:09

    But I didn't do 3 suits for the cost of shipping, my order was 2 for price of 1 like OP

    Still no communication as of yet. did you have to enquire personally to obtain the above response?

  • Gamblor on 27/06/2014 - 15:56

    Just got the same email about the technical error. Shortly after received an email for my $7 refund :(

  • plentifoo on 27/06/2014 - 16:36

    Those who didn’t exploit the system might still have hope then, i.e. those who paid $150++ per suit. Still a bargain if they honour it.

    edit:Spoke too soon, got the email too. :(

  • alterego on 02/07/2014 - 09:50

    Anyone here got their refund yet? I haven't.

    • plentifoo on 02/07/2014 - 11:28

      me neither. i paid by Amex though, might take longer…

      that said i went ahead and bought the suits at the discounted prices without the glitch.

      came up to $250 per suit, still not a bad deal.

      • overlook on 02/07/2014 - 18:49

        actually my AMEX got refunded same day

    • alterego on 07/07/2014 - 14:48

      Still no refund…
