Small questions thread

[jcotteri]

silly question but last year someone posted a great waywt wearing some dior chelseas, dior jeans and a black coat and a suitcase in hand (though that might have been the other pic he posted with it). It was posted with another picture, both of which were from a photoshoot. I really liked the pic with the chelseas and want a copy of it. Poster or someone who remembers please let me know.

Thanks in advance

I've tried on a piece here and there and I've always had to size up at least one. Sometimes two. Unless of course you want a snuuuug fit.

What do I need to know about US customs?
How and what should he mark packages so I can avoid paying custom taxes and what is the preferred shipping method?

thanks for your help

[lowrey]

marked as gift + low value ($50?) usually does the trick.

[endorphinz]

thnaks for the reply

so $50 is the magic number?

also, any recommendations on shipping carrier?

[theaddict]

For Germany the magic number is 40Euro, every gift below that is tax free, every gift, even marked as a gift above that will be charged. And if they open the package and dont believe you that it cost only 40Euros you ahve to proove them with a paypal receipt or something similar how much it did cost...of course, you can always show them a receipt of 40Euros...but i dont wanna go into details here...

They aren't really delicate at all. If you need to wash them, I would wash on cold/gentle cycle and hang dry.

This season's items all have a waxed tag thing. I noticed the other day that I have washed my cut & sew pieces from this season several times in the washing machine and the wax on the tag is still the same as ever. Of course fabrics will all retain the wax differently, but that should at least tell you something about how strong the coating itself is.

Same here with the 40 EUR limit.

A year ago I ordered some several items from Yahoo JP costing over $300. I didn't know there was a magic number beforehand so when I went to pick up my items, I was given a $220 tax bill. Pay up, or don't get your items. I almost cried :(
