Shopbop.com import charges

[ChablisLover]

Hi,

These have been calculated at $27 on my potential order. Do I have to pay anything else on top of it?

Last time I ordered from the states was from Newman Marcus and they came through customs with no charges.

Thanks

Anyone?

Its roughly 20% but then the bastarding Royal Mail add an £8 handling charge..

I always pay up front with shopbop as delivery is then super quick.

So the amount they add is all you have to pay?

Yes, that's it.

Oooooh

Might make it worthy while after all.

So there definitely no more charges?

I order stuff from the US sometimes and what I have found is that the total charges on top seem to be 25% of the cost of the item & shipping.

But there is a chance it may slip through unnoticed...

If you opt to pay customs charges up front on shopbop then that's all you will have to pay. I've even had a small refund from them when the charges were not as much as their estimate.

Oooh now more tempted especially as dh is being an arse today and I need a wee treat this month!

chablis are you still debating the gigi's? or is this for something else?

Still the gigi's ruby

In a quandary

I thought I remembered you ftom last week! get them in the 9. if they slightly big you can disguise it better than if they too small and your toes peering over the end is not an attractive look. order them!

Might order 2 pairs! Am
I bad? LoOking at the black/ tan or pewter and tan. can always ebay them!

I love the black and tan. I have them in rose gold and in tan. I also have the Hamiltons in cream snake print which were $26 from the us site of amazon and somehow didn't get picked up by customs. I agree the resale value for ebay is good. do it!

Now I'm really confused

Looked in amazon and they say a uk size 6 is a us 8.

Matches fashions and shopbop recommend a 9!

Going to have to go for the tape measure

Help!
