Gap online - are the same clothes available in UK shops?

[Mercy]

Please say yes because I've seen a coat I want to buy!

And does anyone know why they don't have an online service here?

not always but you might be lucky

and cause they want to maintain their exclusivity

ok, thanks. What a pita

If anybody sees this Military coat in the UK shops I'd be really grateful if you could let me know.

I do think the UK will get that coat as I have seen it in a UK magazine, but we usually get things a few weeks later than they do there.

Gap stores in the States don't even have the same things as they do online sometimes. When we went to Chicago, we could not find dh long length jeans even though the store on Michigan Avenue is ginormous!! We had to order them online and pay for next day so we could bring them back with us.

Not sure why they don't post to the UK either. It really is silly since they have a retail presence here, so there should be no tax issues. Even if there were, the customer is responsible for customs charges if it is shipped from the US. Really is ridiculous IMO.

Thanks SM!

i wonder whether it is worth ringing a local branch to ask? i don't think they have a central stock control but they've always been v helpful in tracking things down for me.

does seem ridiculous, esp since they are vaunting its europeaness.

I hadn't thought of that fishie [duh]. Actually I'm hoping to get to Gap in the next few days so I'll ask when I'm there (actually I might print off a picture of the coat and take it with me).

I thought the same thing about the 'European' aspect.

They have a book that tells them all of the items coming in the next shipment. I would certainly ask and make sure to take the product code number because that may help.

Just to report that I have seen a military coat for sale in GAP yesterday (and a couple of shorter jackets plus a duffel coat).

There outlet stores in this country stock the stuff that they sell in the US.

Can get jeans there for £20.

Their even, not there

where are the outlet shops?

at an oolay village

oolay?

Thank you Florence!!!!

yes I didn't understand that either - is that somewhere oop north?

They will be dotted all over the country, the outlet stores that is.
Our nearest one is Castleford in West Yorkshire.

Do you have such a thing as a McArthur Glen near you?

I'm in london if that helps!
