Old Navy, American Eagle, etc in Dublin

Crania

Hi, I know that there no stores like Old Navy, American Eagle, Abercrombie & Fitch, etc in Dublin. But basically, what i want to know is, is there any stores in Dublin which stock clothes from any of these shops? I know, it's probably a stupid question, lol!

Oh yeah and do ye know if there any plans for shops like these to set up in Dublin? I heard A&F were in talks to come, but that seemed to fall through or something because I haven't heard anything about it in a while.

Thanks very much.

Hey! Well as far as I know there is nowhere in dublin that sells American Eagle or Hollister but I do know that you can get some Old Navy and Abercrombie for women anyway.

Old Navy - Arnotts [Womens]

Abercombie - In Stephens Green Shopping centre, there is a small shop called 'Tattoo' I think and it sometimes sells Abercrombie stock but it is quite expensive e.g €90 for tracksuit bottoms [Womens]

If its mens your looking for im sorry i havnt a clue =]

There's an A&F store in London. Get a Ryanair 2c flight over and then buy the stuff and bring it back. (It's unbelievably expensive though).
You could also get a credit card and order over the net, then just pay the import tax, probably works out cheaper.

A&F had people over here about three weeks ago scouting for locations. American Eagle stuff is all over town at the moment, presumably TK Maxx have gotten in an order. Old Navy as somebody else said are in Arnotts.

american eagle can be got off their website, keep the order value low < $150 and it comes from the postman, my postman doesn't fully do his job when he delivers my american eagle packages if you know what i mean.

Crania

Thanks for the replies guys! I would buy off thier websites but I just thought that the shipping prices, etc would be astronomical...no?

You can also get Old Navy from Debenhams.

Does that mean that the value has to be <$150 INCLUDING THE $40 p&p charge or not including the $40 p&p charge?

Creamy Goodness

value of goods only.

Buttons_sb

Does anyone know the price of shipping from the A&F website?

From the Revenue site:
Duty is charged on the price paid for the goods including any local sales taxes plus postage, packing and insurance costs.

spurious speaks the truth, i never said my method would avoid taxation, just that i've never gotten taxed on packages from there but in saying that i said i never spent more than $150 including shipping.

spurious

Often times packages arrive with values above the limits clearly stated but they do not bother collecting the duty and tax. I guess it depends on whether they think it's worth the hassle if it's a once-off purchase, or maybe someone is just having a good day.

The DHL type delivery services always charge in my experience, but things slip through in the post.

got charged customs and vat from hollister about like a month and a bit after i got the clothes, it was like 30 euro even when the skirt and tank top i bought only added up to about $40 but then there is the shipping of $40 aswell!:rolleyes:...have only bought american eagle ever since, the shipping is cheaper too (minimum $25) so thats always good, and you don't see half as many people in dublin wearing american eagle outfitters compared to the amount of fake/cheap looking hollister and abercrombie....like seen pictures of a shop in dunlaoighre that sells all abercrombie/hollister stuff and it looked soooooo cheap and tacky, its called la style:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:...me wants some ruehl 925 now though...$78 for a jumper lol:p....would really rather 'jack wills' but thats english and the exchange rate is just too high....but grrrr :mad::mad:ye say tx-maxx have it now ughh not fair!!!!...hate that shop no wonder its the new name for the toilets lol:D

Midna

Oh no.

Old Navy is cheap and nasty. AE is OK at a push but A&F? Ugh!

Banana Republic at a push for american fashion.

MY EYES!! Reading that was painful. Like totally painful man.

Why do hate TK Maxx if it sells exactly the sort of brands you're looking for?

And that shop In DL, LA Style, is actually rather good, Got two hoodies there for €50. Lovely and cosy. Abercrombie ones. More than likely knock offs, but they look the same as the genuines, and are incredibly warm which is the most important bit. Going to college in freezing temperatures calls for bulky hoodies under jackets.

Sorry to stereotype but after seeing your user name I honestly didn't expect a good post like this. Fair play.

It was more the excessive use of smilies to be honest. I noticed you used your full quota of 15 so I can only imagine what would have happened if it was a free for all.

Actually TK Maxx doesn't just get the crap. It gets the out of season stock from the states which is only coming into season in Ireland.

But if you are given the extra funds to be able to afford the online prices then nice one. Not everyone can though.
