i buy online a lot. but these are clothing items that cannot be purchased locally, and , in the past , i would either have to trevel or have a seamstress sew. materials are subject to 45 pc duty and the seamstresses are expensive so i purchase online.
you forget john, that the APDC is guaranteed 10pc return, so that is an added cost. the rising cost of the APDC suddenly made the couriers look much cheaper.
that said, if i purchase a pair of pants at amazon for 25 dollars, i pay 9 to ship, 5 for duty, so 41 plus vat. the pants at the mall sell for 85. the merchant does not buy the pants for 25, he pays much less so he also pays less shipping and duty then me.
please stop giving the govt ideas to tax me more to give to the merchants. thanks.
btw, i just purchased shoes locally because the merchant beat the amazon price. and i purhcased three pairs.
wear a yellow shirt and wait for the plp to arrive at rawson square. then disrobe and have a black one underneath, or if it is cold, cover the yellow shirt with a black sweater.
