If they charge us more to cover duties and taxes why not keep the promo the same. Instead they will charge us more then offer a lesser promo.<br /><br />As Canadians I know we are known for being polite, saying 'sorry' far too easily, but now they want us to take a subpar promo too?

This limits the number of items offered to our international customers, so the promotion will sometimes be less. The duties and taxes included in international orders also cause a difference in the promotions. There are some times where the Canada promotion is of a higher percentage than that of the US promotion, as well as the promotions being the same due to these reasons.Kitkat-cdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15354641113375884367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-18644412486953804132017-03-20T15:23:02.723-04:002017-03-20T15:23:02.723-04:00I have asked recently at (Vancouver) my stores. th...I have asked recently at (Vancouver) my stores. they say they don not have any "bounce back" cards. luck you got one...now to see if you can use it.

The store opened at 11; by 10:56, there four of us waiting at the door, all with returns. None of us bothered to look around before or after our returns. <br />After my return, I was given a $20 off $100 coupon to use for in-store only. <br /><br />On an unrelated note - anyone know what's happening with the Prince Street location in NYC? It's not my usual store but I was in the neighborhood running errands. From the inside they have walled off the shoe/accessories area on the street level, and from the outside the windows/door are papered up. eeps.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10627356547323862881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-74187016803947730562017-03-20T13:24:18.218-04:002017-03-20T13:24:18.218-04:00can any Canadians confirm BORDERFREE web page in...can any Canadians confirm BORDERFREE web page inability to access<br /><br /> for tracking parcels from J Crew ????Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748716793401919727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-89211633196833154092017-03-20T13:00:33.527-04:002017-03-20T13:00:33.527-04:00(Edited because I thought they had extra 30 off to...(Edited because I thought they had extra 30 off today but it is really prices as marked...)<br />Yes, this is their standard practice and it is beyond annoying. Basically you must know the bottom price for every item and only buy when it gets there - I'm sure they lose sales from me because of it. I also have had a price adjustment on basically every order I've placed in the last year for one item or another. Examples: last week using the Gilt promo, I bought two pairs of the Anya flats for $35. Today they are $85. Got the ruffle sleeves tee for $17, today it is $40.50. I will only buy when it is a 50% promo or when there is a Gilt code. Otherwise... you'll see the item for less within weeks. Nothing has ever sold out before I could buy it.Heather Millhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586938110798755553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-76741152102920530042017-03-20T12:58:04.605-04:002017-03-20T12:58:04.605-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Heather Millhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586938110798755553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-73094968675978830312017-03-20T12:31:58.987-04:002017-03-20T12:31:58.987-04:00A while ago (months) we saw diff cdn promos.
