Seen these advertised for a while now. Anyone ever see these in real life? Is this a scam?

If these breast forms are so good, why are they showing GG models in the photo's? Seems a bit misleading to me. :confused:

There are other breast forms at nearly £700, which they claim will last you a life-time and yet directly underneath is a replacement guarantee for a further £109. If they were faulty you would get a replacement anyway. Maybe they are covered for fire, theft and severe crushing. :eek:

Anyway for that sort of money, I'd want to see them up-close and personal before parting with my wedge. :)

These forms are also being sold -- with the same suspiciously-GG-ish photographs -- by Transvestite Transformations, also of the UK (www.transformation.co.uk). Do any of you girls who live near London have any experience this company? They apparently have a shop near one of the big London railway stations. I've had it on my list of things to do, to visit them, if I ever get a business trip to London.

Also, we North Americans have to worry about import duty when buying stuff from abroad -- here's story of a girl who bought forms from the UK and got a huge duty added to them by Uncle Sam (reply number 20) :

Hi Susie,

I have not actually visited the company you mentioned, nor did I buy my breast-forms from them.
Though I have dealt with them through their mail order service and I have to say that personally, I was not impressed by them.

About a year ago, I ordered a blonde bob style wig through them and the one that arrived, was nothing like the one I'd ordered from the photo. In fact it looked like it been dragged behind a rally car for several miles, before they posted the thing. :D This and the fact it was double the price of wigs, I later found on Ebay.
At the same time I also ordered a bra for my breast-forms and they sent the wrong size.

But in farness to them, they sent me a nice e-mail and gave me a refund, after I complained.
But as they say once bitten, twice shy and as a consequence I have never been back to them.

I had the displeasure of frequenting one of there shops in bristol when i first started shopping for girly items and at a time when i just didn't know any better . I've got to say that the staff there were excellent however their products left a lot to be desired.

All of the stock can be found either on the high street or in other smaller cd shops for a fraction of the price that Transformation charge. I may have a bit of a jadded view of them I freely admit , but I feel that they are out to totally rip off the closeted CD market.

If there any UK CD's that want alternative's to transformation please feel free to ask and i shall endevour to give you some other choices from my experience :thumbsup:

No product photos = step away from the forms, NOW!

As far as Transformation in the UK, others in the area that I've talked to haven't had good things to say about them either and they reportedly inspired this parody site (http://www.tatt4trannies.co.uk/). (I particularly liked the makeovers section. ;) )

Which brings up a larger issue -- there are some T-shops who really care about and I try to support them. But there are others, including some run by other fellow sisters, who see an opportunity to take advantage of a very vulnerable (and usually very closet) customers.

Might be worth assembling a list of those we consider worthy of our trade. Call it "tPinions." :)

:D :D :D

That parody site is a real hoot!

As for transformation, I visited their Euston shop a few weeks ago as I had some time to kill in London. Trust me they have not changed a bit, still selling garbage at grossly overpriced margins. All their stuff was incredibly tacky and even worse most of their clothes were not even in male sizes but in tiny female sizes. BDSM guys would have been embarassed to wear this stuff. It was awful!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still the staff are nice although well trained in telling you you look natural and beautiful in anything you merely glance at.

I remember the first time I went there many years ago. A man walked in to buy their "miracle extra strength" breast cream. I listened to him asking the staff when they thought he would actually get any breast development as he had been taking this stuff for 18 months already and nothing had happened!!!

Transformation.....only for the desperate.....

Absolutely brilliant Darla , the funniest thing that I've seen in a very long time . Just what the doctor ordered ;)

As for the list of reputable shops i think that's a very good idea :thumbsup:

transformations also have a shop in prestwich near manchester, I visited it about 15 years ago. I personally found them to be only interested in making money out of us.
all there products seem to be at least double the price of what they are in the high street.
As for the dressing services I know of someone who recently tried this as he could'nt dress at home. He was charged 95 pounds to be madeover. Which took about half an hour then sat around the shop for 3 hours before getting back into his own clothes. He says the makeup was thrown on and in future he will just book a hotel room for the night.
I can't actually say anything about the london shop as I've never been and don't know anyone who has.
One more thing I think anyone who is thinking of visiting should know. The [name deleted] loydd actually served a 5 year prison sentance for selling a product called femme boost which claimed to make you feel like a woman. She charged 35 pounds for these and they were just plain vitamin tablets that cost 1 pound a bottle.

We're talking about fallicies<sp> (lying or misleading) in advertising in class. That's a great one there. To bad i can't use it giggle.;)

Hi girls, just wanted to let you know what I've discovered to be most acceptable ( at least for me ) has been the Frederick's of Hollywood full breast cups, nude, in 34B, with the sheer pocket bra to match. They're silicone-filled, quite comfortable, and feel deliciously life-like. Not cheap at $219 + s & h, but worth the expense, and stay in place fabulously with the recommended bra. I'm a new member, so please excuse me if this is already common knowledge among those of you more experienced than I. Love this site, hope to communicate with all of you in the days to come. Love, RebeccaLynne.
