Australians only really shop in the US because prices are generally cheaper not just to obtain overseas brands. I think Jcrew is cutting a lot of customers out by doing this. When I questioned the price hikes I was told the Australian prices are marked up to be comparable with local prices. If that's the case we'd just shop local. It's a disappointment as I've been a customer for a ling time. I've noticed the quality of fabrics decrease too which means I end up buying less. Extra money for worse quality = fewer purchases for me.

But explain this to me: The Want Les Essentiels bag (item 06218) costs $398 USD if shipping to the US, and $484 USD if shipping to Canada...here's the kicker. The bag is made by a CANADIAN company. So why can't JC figure how to sell the bag to Canadian JCA's without tacking on this...this "duty"?? Our dollars have been near par for over 3+ years. Seriously.

I have had SAs say the same to me when I am returning an item with 30-40% off. I always say, politely of course, sorry but it does not say Final Sale on the invoice.

I wish they'd hurry up - it's getting chilly around here!

If that isn't the case, I would check your e-mail confirmation--I think there would be a good case the item should be returnable.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07923395472788182062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-13527988820540800612013-10-09T17:36:44.079-04:002013-10-09T17:36:44.079-04:00I ordered things that were final sale online but w...I ordered things that were final sale online but was able to return them in store via my VPS.

I wanted to snag a Slim Trench this year after missing it last year. I emailed the company and they *seemed* to be saying it had already come and gone this fall, which doesn't make sense at all as I've been checking almost daily. Did anyone else see it?

I thought that any item that was final sale was marked as such on the invoice. I was surprised recently when I was told that a few things I was returning were final sale, even though it didn't say so on the invoice. I couldn't remember whether they were or were not final sale when I ordered them, they very well could have been. I just thought it used to say so on the invoice. Does anyone know?

I'm unable to do an exchange now because the sizes I originally ordered are now sold out everywhere.

Of the three items I have either received or given as gifts lately, one showed up in a flat bag...items in e plastic bags, no gift box with a gift receipt that included a note but not the from part, one showed up in the plastic bags with a folded box in the package with no gift receipt and one had items in a box (still in the individual plastic bags) with a gift receipt but no note. The items in the box...the box didn't have a bow or anything...just a jcrew box with plastic bags of items thrown in. I can't imagine what this will look like during the holiday season. Some consistency and actual gift wrapping/gift receipts would be nice. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
