But they have nothing worth ordering. I looked and it is all rather boring, sad to say.

Thanks, that post cost me 50 quid on knickers. The Missus tells me that no VPL knickers are hard to find here in Kamloops.

It's just saved me £50 on knickers because now the OH argument that she needs to go to M&S to stock up before we leave is redundant.

I was going to do an order but was worried I'd be charged duties on arrival as people on here have been although it seems a bit hit and miss.

From their website:
Please note that products are sold on a DDU (Delivery Duty unpaid) basis. Additional taxes, fees or levies may apply according to local legislation.
Recipients of deliveries made outside the European Union may have to pay import duty or formal customs entry

It's not just the duty either... there are those magical "Broker's Fees" to pay, too!

I ordered myself a dressing gown (per una) was about 20 quid with free shipping, had to pay just over $20 when it was delivered. Tax and handling fees. Wont do that again in a hurry:thumbdown:
