Bravissimo; Why u no proper sale?

Does anyone else get annoyed about Bravissimo's lack of sale?

I've been wanting to try some their own-brand bras for a while now, like Satine, Bohemia, perhaps Mademoiselle.. But why aren't these properly discounted? Not trying to be cheap / unreasonable; I'm not talking new season items. These are older style bras that have been around (and on sale) for several months to a year now.

As I don't live in the UK and possible return shipping is not cheap, I was really looking for these items to drop in price a bit more. But they've been hovering around 5-10% discount for what seems forever... Like 27 pounds instead of 30 pounds - pfffuhh, should I get excited about that!?

Lots of sites offer last season style bras at a reasonable discount, say 25-50% off (Brastop, Belle lingerie, Figleaves etc.).

Bravissimo seems to ignore this and follow their own concept of what 'sale' actually means. While they are often very limited in sizes on sale items, they don't accept that this category of "leftovers" tends to be sold at significantly lower prices. Perhaps they are much more focused on in-store bra selling; rather than online?

Anyway now I'm pretty indecisive about trying some Bravissimo bras. Satine and Bohemia particularly appeal to me, but the reviews seem quite mixed - especially Satine gets a lot of negative reviews about wires popping out. And I don't want to spend too much money on bras that might not work out

Does anyone know if Bravissimo has a time of year (perhaps Christmas) when there's actually a proper sale going on? Or could people (maybe also in the 30GG /30H range) recommend or discourage me to try Bravissimo's own brand bras?

Thanks
