Exchange
I ordered a jacket in a size 16 which seemed too big so I reordered it in a size 14. The sales assistant for Cotton Traders in Dobbies garden centre very efficiently refunded the size 16 and arranged for the discount on the original order to applied to the size 14 order.

Action Trousers
The extreme helpfulness of the assistant Cheryl in returning an order of 2 pairs of Action Trousers (to big) and issuing a reorder of a smaller sized 2 pairs.
Yet again Cotton Traders stated sizes I find to be over generous but a good well made product never the less.
