I haven't ordered from them before, but I've been told that they don't skimp on the customs taxes since they are a store. So take that into account when you are figuring out the pricing. You can also call them as people in the states I know have done so without much of a problem.
i dunno how the proces works but it says if ur not from europe u dont get charged the VAT charges which makes the items significantly cheaper. whats VAT anyway.

VAT - Value added tax.
That site is incredible...I saw tons of stuff I would like to have! I hope there's no tax bc it is $$$.
I bought an Ann Demeulemeester shirt from them. The shipping is HELLA expensive, but it came from Italy in like two days. I don't remember about VAT charges and stuff; I guess there weren't any. But you definitely have to take the shipping into account when you're buying something from them.
yea the shipping charge for the stuff i want is 50 euro or around 65 us dollars. but i dont really mind that, i just dont want a crap load of custom taxes added on.
oh yea and alex, the price on of the t shirt in euro on luisa was it fairly accurate to the dollar amount they charged you, from what you calculated? i calculate currencies on cnn.com
I bought a pair of DH jeans from them, super fast shipping but 50 euro to the US (chicago). The thing is, shortly after I got my jeans Fedex hit me with a bill for $100 for duties or import tax or something. So my $400 jeans actually ended up costing more like $575 in the end. That being said, it was an overall positive experience. They answered my questions quickly and everything seemed very professional, I'd buy from them again.
wow what the hell a extra 100 dollar bill? WTF.... anyways i ordered my stuff like a few days ago, they dont respond to my emails about the order. alexn didnt get hit with any extra fees, i hope i dont either, but i live in chicago too, i guess im doomed.
