That being said, this sounds like a teaser promotion to get you to try their product.  So I'm not surprised there are some limits on quantities.  Charles Trywhitt is great choice for OTR rack shirts, ties, and accessories.  I hope you can look past this incident.

This has been my experience as well. Extremely easy returns process and very polite.

I have to agree! Charles Tyrwhitt has become my favorite brand of dress shirt because they are affordable, their "non-iron" shirts really don't need much ironing at all, they have great customer service, and most importantly their tailored fit shirts fit me PERFECTLY. I actually had a problem with a return recently and got an e-mail from Mr. Wheeler himself thanking me for my business and asking me some more detailed questions about my issue. Then, out of their own pocket they got me replacement shirts with ultra-expedited alterations and shipping. I couldn't be happier.

I have to say that I buy non-iron shirts almost exclusively (from CT).  I wash and dry on the hanger.  No iron needed.  When I travel, I hang the shirt inside a steaming shower.  I haven't had a problem yet.

If anything, this thread has convinced me to try Charles Tyrwhitt.

I usually go TM Lewin and Thomas Pink, but I can't ignore the good stuff I'm reading. So, I'm guessing the thread has had the exact opposite of the intended effect.

I've only placed one order from CT and it was a great experience. I ordered 3 dress shirts and actually hadn't worn them for a few months (work's casual dress, so I don't wear dress shirts often), just kept them in the original packaging. When I finally tried them on I realized the sleeves were too short. I was well past an acceptable return timetable but contacted them and they took my return no questions asked and shipped me 3 brand new shirts. I will buy from them again.

You won't regret it. From all the RTW shirts I've tried in the price range CT knocks them all out. Great fit, washes well, non-iron is great, everything is just great!!

CT's non-iron shirts are great! One feature I especially like is that their french cuff shirts have 2 separate button holes on the inside of the cuff, allowing the wearer to slightly adjust the length of the shirt by a 1/4 inch or so depending on the length of the jacket or SC. Lewin doesn't make a 16/34 so I haven't really tried them. To be honest I think Pink shirts are wildly overpriced for the quality. $130-180 a shirt and they don't even pattern match the sleeves? At that price point I'd much rather get a Hilditch and Key, which does pattern match the sleeves.

Never bought from Pink, never seen any reason to at 3 times the price of CT. They have a nicer store but who cares!

I like CT shirts also, and they are pretty much all I wear (plus PRL), but lets be clear, they are a bargain shirtmaker. Their stuff is not "Great", but rather very serviceable at a good price.

Indeed. And now the OP is angry because he was caught ... and is sufficiently self-centered that he's decided to take out his frustration on Tyrwhitt.

In response I think I'll buy something from Tyrwhitt ... perhaps some cufflinks.

If each was abusing the system as did you, each is the kind of customer no store wants.

Not at all cool, in fact imo worse than the original transgression. For all we know it is allowed for employees to do their internet shopping on a Friday afternoon. I don't think the op has any case against CT, he tried it on and was found out but in a way he did CT a service as they know the checks in place on their web software works(or not if it was discovered manually). Maybe their IT ppl could modify the software so the transaction does not get so far but if someone has several credit cards this may not be easy.

I personally prefer my CT shirts over my TM Lewin shirts. CT just feels a little bit nicer and they fit me better.
