50% OFF offer on all Plum Ethical Bags
Posted on | August 10, 2009 | 3 Comments
We’re going to try an offer. We might regret it, so it might not last long! The idea is that you buy a bag from us (we like this idea so far) then you get your friend to buy a bag too (we really like the idea now), then you send us your friend’s email address (it must match the email address they used when they bought their item), then we refund you 50% of what you paid for your bag (that’s the bit we’re not sure about!) Obviously, the idea is that we get the word out to more people, and get people talking, and we think it’s fair that you get something for that.
The only caveat is that your friend must spend the same or more than you, because otherwise everyone will get their E&KO tote bag for half price while their friend buys a PlanetSilverChilli bag!
The offer’s live, right now!

I love the idea, and the look of several of your bags, but even though I don’t have to worry about ‘where my next meal is coming from’, I would absolutely never pay those rates for a bag. I don’t know how you are managing, but certainly if I am thinking it, there’s a proportion of the public who think the same.

Hmm. Don’t really know what to say. I mean, it’s true we’ve got some expensive bags (£159 is the most expensive) but we’ve also got a lot of cheaper bags (£29 is the least expensive).
We’re certainly not aiming at the £5-a-bag thing because we can’t how that can possibly be fair trade. How can the retailer, wholesaler do their thing and still manage to give the bag maker a fair wage? I can’t see it.
Also, we’re trying to sell bags that are something a bit special, and if you look at other bag sellers they’re selling their bags at more like to £150 – £400 mark.
We’re actually pretty good value, *and* we give back to everyone on the chain from us back to bag to the bag designer and artisan.

… Oh, and sorry for the delay approving your post. We’re being massively spammed and I missed it among all the rubbish.
