UGH! DHL's service has gotten a tad better *knock on wood*, but last year one of their delivery men decided to leave a large package of mine hidden behind a sparse bush... which was 25 feet from my front door! wtf?!

Thank goodness a neighbor of mine saw it while she was walking her dog, noticed it had my name on it, took it with her and contacted me later that day.

DHL really IS the worst....

but chrissy...
won't they even let you redirect the package to your work address...
i have to do that sometimes when samples are delayed for shoots and some of the shipping companies are pretty good about it...

of course DHL may not be since they suck......
everything always gets stuck in customs or arrives late...

i didn't even think of that when the woman blindsided me on the phone

luckily my mother was able to save the day and stick around for a bit so she could sign for the package...

i might need to exchange one of the necklaces i got because the chain broke though..
which means i would have to arrange a pick up and my dealings with DHL wouldn't be over
we'll see...

I ordered a stam from NAP a few months ago and the service was great! I had it shipped to my home address and missed the delievery. DHL left a contact sheet in the door with a number to call. Called the number and had them come back out to deliever it the next morning no problem - and I live in quite a rural village! I thought the service was great but after reading a few of these posts I think I am in the minority!

same thing happened to me ^ but yeah the service is great, but i have to admitt, shopbop's service is a tiny bit better: they sent me a text message telling me my delivery was on the way to my house =D (and thank god for that cause i was almost about to walk out the door)

Does anyone know if NAP goes on mid-season sale? thanks!

 

[leyla m.]

this season has been mediocre for every big player so lets hope for a big sale soon

 

[lovefrommilan]

I got an email today from net-a-porter.

You know what that means- SALE!

How do you feel about the Bruna quilted tote by MJ...for 50% off?

I'm ordering right now

 

[Cicciolina]

The US NAP is on sale but the UK/International site still isn't on sale... Does anyone know when it starts?

 

[Jungla_Juana]

guys is it me or is NAP terribly overpriced? I mean even the sales items are ...

 

[e-v-elina]

^ yeah im gonna have to agree with the sales part

 

[aris]

The US NAP is on sale but the UK/International site still isn't on sale... Does anyone know when it starts?

I also want to know

 

[leyla m.]

oh the same story again.. sales on UK NAP seem never to start.
also once they do actually decide to go on sale they are still overpriced!!!!

 

[Belowen]

Any Australian tfs'ers that have shopped with NAP? Do they require a signature on delivery, and if so, will they re-direct the package if you're not able to sign at home? I don't like having things delivered to me at work, so I never put that as the first place of delivery... The website says that they cannot re-direct to another address, but I'm not sure if that is for international orders also.

 

[PrincessImp.]

^I have ordered from NAP when I was in Singapore before (international delivery) and a signature is required on delivery. Not sure about the re-direction part though as I never had a need to do that, but I guess emailing customer service might help?

 

[Belowen]

Thankyou Princess, I'll drop them a line, see what they say...
I'm hoping to pick up some on sale Chloe items before I lose my chance!

I am in the UK and I am going to have to order my Chloe shoes on the US site because the US have them in my size. The shoes are in the sale on the US site, but by the time I have paid for the shipping, tax and duties - they are full price again. Such a joke!

 

[leyla m.]

hi innocent
i have thought about that so many times too but as you said, it turns out to be a joke indeed
i just do not understand why they dont go on SALE!!!
the entire world is on sale and almost every single shop has WINTER in already while they are still receiving summer?!!!

It so laughable!

Us Brits' always have the rough deal and the Americans are always getting the cheap, discounted stock. For example, I was in New York in late March I was looking at Marc By Marc Jacobs in Barneys. I got a black quilted velveteen jacket for £91, which is STILL £300 here in Selfridges, Harrods, Liberty's, etc!

I have just ordered my Chloe sandals from the US site because they only have my size available on there. They would had only cost me about £210 if I lived in the US, but because I am in the UK the total has come to about £300 (with whatever comission they charge on my card), so it is still full price.

I am going to stock up when I go to the States in August!!

Arg... I have the same problem as you, Innocent Fairy! There's a dress on NAP US that I want, it's not available on NAP UK. It's 215 dollars but if I want to order it from Europe the total comes to 406 $!! Unbelievable difference!

 

[InnocentFairy]

^^ Well they arrived today and after all, the shoes are too small anyway!
