I used to purchase all of my bras from there, because that was where everyone else I knew shopped.

(And I take good care of my undergarments too...handwash, drip dry. Its not like I washed them in the heavy duty cycle and then dried them on high heat!)
P.S. I have a terrible time finding bras that fit properly too - 36 D (though since having my children I'm hovering close to a DD). I'd agree with whoever said that its harder to find a decent D in a smaller band size than 38. (Well, unless you're willing to pay an arm and a leg for a bra, or to purchase a crappy VS bra.)

I refuse to by VS bras anymore because of this. I had one bright pink one I didn't wear too often due to the color. I owned it for about 6 months and wore it 3-4 times in that time frame and the underwire popped out. I took it back and the store manager gave me such grief about the return. He was such an a-hole. I've just started ordering from bravissimo and they have an excellent customer service department. They are pretty pricey since the pounds to dollar conversion isn't great right now, but for a bra that fits well and is good quality it's worth it. I'd rather have 3-4 really good bras then 10 crappy ones.
