I've noticed that their stuff is getting to be a lot less quality and more pricey, so I've started buying most of my lingerie on Eden. Some of it is cheaper, but some of it actually is great material. What are your views on VS?
Do you actually shop at Victoria's secret?

the big problem with VS is that they've made themselves the de facto lingerie store. Other places need to compete with them, both in terms of products and advertising.

I used to shop there, back before I realized that they charged a high price for really low quality products. I'd rather spend my money on a bra or panties that will last more than 3 months.
12/22/2011
Nah, I try to go to my local lingerie shop. VS is just too expensive for being such a crappy product. They have gorgeous models though
12/23/2011
I really don't like shopping there, for the experience and the fact that I don't feel the quality is worth the price on most of it. I do, however, take advantage of the free panties coupons and random gift cards I get from them in the mail!!

Ditto. No one who is really serious about lingerie would consider that place.

I shop there on occasion, but not too often anymore. You're only paying for the name. You can get much higher quality bra for the same price elsewhere.

Everytime I go there, they treat me like trash cause I'm plus sized.
One lady told me their bras don't go over 34C but kindly told me that there was a Lane Bryant across the mall.

I used to shop there a lot, both online and in store. I bought clothing, shoes and lingerie. I've had mostly good experiences. But after having some employment trouble, I don't shop there as much. While I don't feel the items are terribly overpriced or poorly made, I try to hold onto lingerie longer now. I imagine that if I took greater care with my lingerie, the stuff would have a longer lifespan. I really don't care for much of the Pink collection, but I do like some of their cotton thongs OK, and some fancier lingerie. I haven't tried their bras since I shrunk, so I might visit soon since I'm having trouble elsewhere in my town.

I am really excited to see so many new additions to the lingerie section here!! I just ordered and received something pretty cute recently. But I need more practical and sexy. What I see here that is similar isn't to my taste, and around the price of VS. But if this expansion keeps up, I'm sure I will find more eventually! I hope that part of EF has been selling well.

I don't shop there very often, but once in awhile I will. I bought a pair of panties there about a month ago that said "unwrap me" because I thought it would be cute to wear for my boyfriend's birthday. Other than that though I don't think I've bought anything there all year. I don't like their perfumes or pink collection at all. Most of their cuter lingerie doesn't seem to fit me all that great so I pretty much gave up on them, but occasionally I do find something.

I like to go in and walk around, but I don't actually purchase anything most of the time. I have enough bras that I don't need anything fancy and if I'm paying $50 for a bra it damn well better last me a long time. If I'm gonna have to replace it after 4 months anyway, I'd much rather spend $15 than $50. The underwear on the other hand, if I can get it on sale I usually end up liking it.
12/23/2011
I get free things there a lot. I only buy underwear there if they have a good sale like 5 for $26
12/23/2011
I think the only thing I buy there nowadays are panties. I was able to get really cute Intimissimi panties for 2-4 dollars per.

This should help explain things a bit.

I like watching their shows. Very high production value for a fashion show. I do not shop at their store because there are much more well-made and comfortable lingerie out there than VS.
12/23/2011
We have almost no other lingerie stores here (despite being a large city) so I have been buying my bras there. Recently we had a bra store open up in a higher end shopping area so I might go there next time, but I have so much trouble finding bras that fit!

I get panties and bras there, but the rest of their stuff has gotten way over priced for what you get. Plus I dont like the direction they are taking their styles.

I've got a very close friend who works for Victoria's Secrets in the online ordering department in their Dayton, OH center. You got to hear all the great stories he hears (and shares with me!) from all the women who call and order! It's unreal!!
