Fashion Order Questions

Can I order shoes from the USA?

Yes. The best place to buy from is zappos.com. Amazon and endless.com are also very good too. The weight of shipping a single pair of shoes is typically around 2 to 2.5 lbs. You can workout your shoe size by using this chart from zappos.

USA Shoe Size Chart

How much do shoes weigh?

This is a difficult question to answer as it depends on the size of the shoes and the box. Based on my experience this is what you should expect.

• Children's Shoes | 1 - 2 lbs.
• Women's Shoes | 2 - 2.5 lbs
• Men's Shoes | 2.5 - 3 lbs
• Small Boots | 3 - 4 lbs
• Large Boots | 4 - 6 lbs
• Running Shoes | 2.5 lbs
• Sandals | 1.5 - 2 lbs

If you are ordering multiple shoes you can ask to have my USA partner take the shoes out of the original boxes before shipping. This will mean that you can't return the shoes to the store in USA, but it will save on the shipping cost.

What are good shops to buy clothes from?

This is too hard to answer as there are so many good stores. The following are very popular.

• Gap
• Ralph Lauren
• Macys
• Nordstrom
• Nike
• Walmart
• Old Navy

Can I buy jewelry from the USA?

Yes, but strangely you can't ship jewelry via express mail. On the USPS website it says the jewelry is a prohibited import to Australia yet on the Australian customs website it is not a prohibited import (only conflict diamonds are). I have had a lot of customers order jewelry and it has not been a problem for my USA partners to ship. Don't forget if the value of the order is over A$1000 then you will most likely need to pay GST and duty.

The other alternative is to ship UPS. For something light like jewelry it is actually quite cost effective.

How much will my clothes order cost to ship?

This is hard to answer as it depends on many factors, but the following list should give you an estimate. If the estimate is too high or low then don't worry as you will be refunded for any extra charges, or asked to pay the extra once everything arrives at my USA partner's address.

Children's Clothes

• Shirts, pants, dresses | 0.5 lbs
• Socks, underwear | 0.3 lbs

Men's Clothes

• Shirts | 0.75 lb
• Pants | 1.5 lbs
• Jeans | 2 lbs
• Socks, underwear | 0.3 lbs
• Coats | 3 to 5 lbs

Women's Clothes

• Shirts, pants, dresses | 0.5 to 2 lbs
• Jeans | 2 lbs
• Socks, underwear | 0.3 lbs
• Coats | 3 to 4 lbs

Snow Clothing (Men and Women)

• Jackets and Pants | 3 to 4 lbs
• Undergarments | 0.5 to 1lbs
• Hats | 0.5 lbs

How do I order Nike ID Shoes?

NikeID shoes can be complex to order because the links on nikeid.com are hard to copy and paste into my order form. The best way of getting the right link is to use the Save and Share function. When you get to the end of the shoe design process you will be asked to the shoe to your shopping cart. Rather than adding to your cart click on the "Save and Share" button instead - see the location of the red arrow below.

 

Clicking on the Save and Share button will pop up a new window called "Save and Share". Click on the "Copy Direct Link" button in this window (red arrow).

This will copy the direct link to your shoe design and you can now past this into my order form. The link should look something like this: http://nikeid.nike.com/nikeid/index.jsp?sitesrc=dl_usid&designId=181614042

Make sure you check that the link actually works before submitting your order.

Nike has recently changed their website and the buttons are slightly changed, but the basic principles are still the same.

How much does it cost to ship strollers?

Strollers are large so ship on the basis of volumetric weight. A stroller on its own costs between $160 and $250 depending on the brand and size (i.e. double strollers cost more than single). If you add accessories to the order then this tends to add another $10 to $40 to the shipping cost.

How to order from Coach?

Coach has a site that makes it very difficult to get a working url link to the items that you want to order. Here is the procedure to get a working link to your items.

Step 1
Find the item that you want to order in the coach site.

Step 2

Click on the item you want and it will pop up a window with description of the item along with a style number.

Step 3

Copy the style number and paste it into the search box at the top right hand side of the coach site and press the search button.

Step 4

This will take you to a single page with just your item on it.

Step 5

Copy and paste the url link into the Price USA order form. Don't forget to include a description of the item especially the style number and colour.

You should end up with a link something like this: http://www.coach.com/online/handbags/SearchResultsView?
storeId=10551&catalogId=10051&langId=1&quickOrder=yes
&searchKeyword=17995&cacheKeyword=17995
