I was so hoping someone would post a "yes they are here no worries" ... Oh well will just have to find an alternative or get rellies to post stuff over if they dont ship.

It's a good question! Sadly though the answer is NO...

Not sure what the equivalent would be here? I like a shop called 'Colorado'. Has a good style. Bit mountainy, street stuff. For your basic clothes you have the warehouse or suchlike.

If you want high-end imported brands you can go to Ballentines but as it is imported you will pay international prices, just be aware of that.

Remember, you will probably be earning NZ sallaries so make the adjustment quickly to the NZ brands else you will blow your budget very quickly!!!

It's a good idea about the Next catalogue. Would imagine you can get them send here, but again once you have translated you GBP to NZD they may end up quite expensive to the average NZ person, which you may or not end up being? Plus you have import tarrifs...

I don't know if Next deliver to Oz/NZ but if they do you have to be very careful with getting stung for import duty and GST

Not sure of the rates in NZ, but in Oz, import duty on most clothes is 25%. We had a load of stuff sent over for my hubby's birthday and it got stuck in customs - we then had to pay 25% import duty +10% GST before they would release the parcel. Ouch!!

Some things are less than 25% - e.g. footwear is 10%.

We found cost of nice work shirts in Oz to be really expensive - like $120 upwards for the same quality of shirt he could get from Next for £20

TinaJ I have been shopping in Satch - really nice clothes, like Next, and the trousers were so long I had to have about 4" off the bottom (I'm 5' 6").

HP
p.s. funny but I have been on the Next web site today cos they have a really nice maternity section

No Next in Australia. I just bought loads when I was in the UK a few weeks back and claimed back the VAT.

This really weird....just drove down Nicholson St in Carlton (Melbourne) and saw a Next factory outlet store. Didn't go in as was in the car but the front of the shop had the big Next logo, and the clothes were on Next hangers. Thing is, I have never seen 'Next' in the shopping malls here, so why a factory outlet?

hey it's funny you should say that because in Perth they have just opened 7 new shops called 'NEXT' !!!?? These shops are furniture shops. I have seen the lorries driving around but it doesn't look like the same logo (unless the logo in the UK has changed?) I will check it out this weekend and go and have a look.

I didn't think you were allowed to use the name of another major company? Unless it doesn't matter in different countries??

Probably everywhere I'm 160cm (I think) and most pants here could do with me having another leg length from the knee down, they are miles too long! Clothes here seem really big and long.
