    They are in administration - I wouldn't spend that much with them at this stage.
    Also - just in case of duty , you should try and keep orders under €150 if possible. If there is duty - it will be about 12% on clothes.
    But no duty on orders under €150.

    Thanks that’s good to know, 12% isn’t too bad though overall. I panic bought as I heard they were closing so hopefully they’ll arrive!

    Not sure if it has been mentioned, but just found this Irish retailer on Instagram - OHelloClothing

    I'm not affiliated with them nor have I purchased anything from them... just thought it would be nice to "big-up" another Irish shop

    I'm unable to determine where in Ireland they are based... so not sure if they have a bricks and mortar shop... or are online only. Anyone ever heard of them?

    I must recommend www.allaboutgorgeous.ie. It’s the online store for Citywax in Cork. They have the much sought-after Moroccan Oil Dry Shampoo in Light tones! They also included a bunch of fab free samples, including Dermologica stuff :)

    It looks like they’re based in Sligo but I had to dig to find that. They don’t offer their returns address freely so I’d say they don’t have a physical store at all, probably just operating out of a private home or similar.

    I’m enjoying Seagreen and Costume in Dublin lately, they are great at showing how stock fits and looks on the body. I find it hard to judge clothing when you can’t see the person moving so I appreciate the effort they put into their Instagram.
    I bought from Seagreen and no complaints.

    Could anyone recommend online vintage (inspired) shops based in Ireland or Europe? Clothes and shoes....especially shoes.

    Etsy do a vintage selection. Can be pricey though.

    The Green Labels ships from The Netherlands and stocks ethically sourced products. Haven't bought anything yet but it looks good :)

    Ps. Is there any chance OP can edit the first post to list all the shops mentioned?

    Where does Abercrombie & Fitch ship from? Some great offers on coats but not if you're stung with UK fees. I can't find anything relevant on their website...

    Edited to add: their customer service says that they ship from the Netherlands.

    Ordered a good few bits from Topshop during the week so I’ll let ye know if it ever arrives. Came to €320 so will be interesting to see what the added cost will be.

    Did you get your orders ok?

    Was anyone waiting long from Zalando for delivery? I've not ordered yet from them yet or from ASOS/Boohoo so far. Mainly ordered online from Irish companies and Bestseller that do a variety of brands vero moda, pieces, vila, Only. iClothing and other places do those brands aswell online. iclothing be limited though for those brands you keep an eye on what you want but its better ordering directly from the brands itself.

    Three stories is another Irish company that do vero moda but limited selection.
    https://threestories.ie/
    They do name it and jack jones aswell. They have a discount until today I think.

    From Vero Moda shop/Besteller warehouse, Usually you wait a week to get them in the post as they come from the Netherlands/Germany. They deliver to Ireland via DHL and deliver to me via anpost which is great.

    Recently ordered from H and M so will see how quick I get it from them. I know Zara took a week when I ordered from them after Christmas.

    Not the most common of places - but has anyone ordered off Quiksilver? My brothers birthday is coming up - and he loves their clothes. I know ASOS sells them but there is much greater choice on their own website.

    Seen bad reviews for them on trustpilot but not sure if that’s just in relation to the UK site and the Irish site may be different?

    You'd need to check where they're shipping from, having a .ie website doesn't mean they're shipping from Ireland. Maybe try ask them on Twitter? It seems like a lot of brands ship via Netherlands so hopefully Quiksilver are similarly EU based!

    I think they deliver via DPD/Nightline now in line with UPS. I look forward to when you can order and click and collect from next.

    Hopefully we have click and collect from the none-essential shops by April/May at least even if we head into a level 4 type of restriction is what I am predicting as I can't see us going to any or all shops until the summer before they fully reopen. The most be outdoor shops I say like garden centres be reopening after this lockdown is lifted.

    Zalando can take up to a week - its shipped from Germany and then has to go through An Post.

    My bf ordered jeans from Asos over the weekend and got them today (Tue) via an Post which I though was brill as thats the same time as the "next day delivery" which now takes up to 3 days.

    Found Zara ship quite quickly!

    My husband is after Irish menswear retailers, if anyone can suggest some? (As in, Irish shops rather than international chains.)

    Also, not sure if it was mentioned here but I just bought a dress from Carousel yesterday and got excellent customer service and a speedy dispatch - http://ilovecarousel.com/. It’s an Irish shop - they used have a store in Dublin but have decided to continue trading solely online as a result of Covid. It’s a bit vintage in feel - maybe not quite Collectif level, but it definitely comes closer than most places.

    I recently ordered from Zalando I would expect a week alright as is the same for bestseller brands - vero moda, only, vila and pieces, they go from dhl to anpost most have taken a week the odd time two weeks.

    I’ve never been sure who ASOS deliver with some say fastway others say anpost or other courier.

    Ya Zara aren’t too bad I ordered from them after Christmas and got my order within a week same goes for h and m.

    Has anyone had the experience of being charged customs on a return??

    Sent a package of clothes for returns to the UK. Had no updates for a month on the tracker, and now it's saying "package was rejected at the address".

    I know we've had to pay customs / VAT when receiving goods, but is it normal to have to pay them when making a return??

    I ordered a lot of stuff from Next at the weekend and it was split into two deliveries. The first arrived yesterday with DPD and stated it came from Next (Belfast), no issues. Hiwever today I received the delivery notification email from DPD for the second part of the order and it says Next (Mainland UK). Will i be caught for customs now? I would never have ordered if I thought this could happen.

    No, Next are registered for Irish VAT and it’s delivered duty paid.

    I hope so, that's a relief. I wish they would be more clear on their website. Their info is very vague:

    "Will I be charged customs fees?

    Depending on the value of your order and your specific country, you may be charged customs or import fees once your parcel arrives into your country. As stated in our ‘Terms and Conditions’, these fees must be paid by the customer and won’t be covered by Next."

    Just confirming that my second Next delivery mentioned above, which was listed as Mainland UK, arrived with no mention of customs charges and the address label said Belfast.

    Unfortunately it had been opened and stuck back together with stickers, and two items were missing. Next issued a refund immediately without any quibbles.

    Most items do, I would say 7-8 out of 10 have for me and the rest within 2 days. That's delivered to my OH's workplace on outskirts of Dublin.

    Where is a good site to buy a pair of Veja trainers? Should I buy from them directly off their site? I know Brown Thomas do them too, but they don't seem to have a big range. I can't decide which ones I want yet, but I am going to treat myself as I've wanted a pair for ages!

    A range of them here https://www.zalando.ie/veja/ usually takes up to a week for my deliveries from them when buying stuff. I think it's shipped from Germany now.

    I bought a pair of those a couple of years back. Honestly the worst pair I've ever purchased. Split after two months. Bought them from a site in england -returned them and got a refund straight away.It was only then I checked Veja on trust pilot. Shocking reviews.

    I have V10s for a bit more than two years now. They are still in great condition despite washing them in washing machine couple of times. They are not the most comfortable runner I have but none of the others remained in such a good condition after 2 years. There are no scratches on the leather and they kept their shape very well.

    There could be issues with their quality control on some items but I find the ones I got are excellent quality.

    I got them on Zalando but the likes of Arket and Stories also sell them. If you use a site you haven't used before you could get introductory discount if you still intend to buy them.
