Oh good. It has been quite a while since we have had a thread about boobs and female underwear. These threads should be encouraged.

Carry on ...

The British Standard Handful is smaller than the Canadian one though.

What about customs, taxes, fees etc?

How much extra do all these put on???

I would love to order some stuff but I am so scared of getting stung by extras that I havn't dared order anything

Has anyone actually received and order from them? Please let me know if there were extra charges?

They must be! I haven't found any bras that fit properly yet, and am rapidly coming to the conclusion that there must be lots of Canadian women who wear small A cup sizes as there seems to be lots of A cup bras Also, I still haven't really seen any pretty bras - just t-shirt bras in lots of different colours.

I love how they can deliver all over the world, but still haven't figured out a way to deliver to the republic of Ireland

I ordered about 200 quids worth in January. No VAT but paid import duty to Canada of $78. It was worth it to get knickers that fit.

I can't conceive of getting to the point where I needed to spend over $400 on underpants due to a drawer full of ill-fitting pairs. That's a heck of a volume to buy in one go.
