@Alex and @Giles apart from all love and friendship, I must say I'm still irritated and disappointed by this exclusive shipping condition for Germany. Don't think it was a good move. I understand your commercial problem, but from my perspective you have shifted it over to the german customers instead of finding a customer friendly solution. I do not know - despite all my loyalty vouchers - how I could possibly make orders from IHUK under reasonable circumstance for myself. Collecting stack orders from different german customers in Gosport, sending them over to one of them and getting them distributed here by ourselves would probably work (as long as the orders are somewhat in the same timeframe), but it would be a solution in our shoulders, and I would have expected you to find anything like that. Sorry, for speaking so openly here, but you know how much I admire you work, and I think you can beare it.
Exactly this^…… couldn‘t find better words. Thanks.
I quit on ordering at least 3 times an item since the change because it would be to expensive or can‘t find the Product at EU retailers after browsing 5-6 shitty Websites to find it. Nobody offers the full range (understandable) and it‘s a pain in the a* to find it.
And especially for Bottoms are additional costs if you want them hemmed. Shipping from retailer, shipping to hemming service and back, hemming service. Extra of 50-60€ min. And after all a much longer waiting time before I can have the pants on my legs.
This is what the great IH customer service was all about in the past for me. Seeing the product in the shop, knowing the price, ordering by click, two days later seeing a brown truck with a brown man handing me over a blue bag. Perfect.
