Okay Ladies this is an important one!

Other than Top Shop are there any other UK retailers who ship to Oz?

Lets face it shopping in Oz just does not cut it - I'd rather take my chances buying online than spending hours in the local mall wandering from one identical shop to another (and is it just me being a grumpy old lady or does anyone else get rage when asked if you need any help 5 seconds after entering the shop and then every 10 seconds onwards:curse:??)

Thanks

I like to be left to my own devices when shopping, if i feel hounded i just leave.
I haven't actually shopped on-line for anything yet. I just make do with the tat here.

I only discovered last week Topshop ship out here and I have made my wish list ready for pay day already!!

I've not heard of any other UK retailers shipping here to be honest. An idea I had was order stuff to my friends house and then they were going to send out to me.

I know what you mean about the rage and the shop assistants - it gets a bit much sometime

I got asked 6 times in five minutes last week if I needed help, all in the same small shop! I finally gave up and walked out cos I was spending more time smiling in a sickly way and saying "just browsing thanks" than I was actually browsing. Drives me nuts, they just can't take the hint.

http://www.ukshoppingworldwide.com/ - lots of them. I think I must look scary. I rarely get asked if I want help, and only once just as I walked in. She got the message when I looked (the daughters will tell you that's scary ) and said, no I'm fine, I'm walking in and my legs work. Now I'm walking out and won't be back" The girls were mortified

God I hear ya! Its like "leave me alone, if I want help I will ask FFS!!!!!".

To get hit by three of them in one small shop like I did tonight is just grrrr. I always respond with a very firm "no thanks, just looking" without really engaging with them/looking at them ... seems to do the trick. If I need help I ask and am my usual delightful self
