No they don't.

 

[villan]

No they don't.

damn...they do...

Starting last February, we have implemented a new pricing structure for Carmina items shipping to Singapore. The price will now be including:
· Shipping
· Customs and taxes
· Handling fees

Please note that this special fee only applies to Carmina. All other brands are currently unaffected.

This only applies to Carmina.
The "customs and taxes" refers to our gst. This is not the same as the Swedish VAT.
This came about due to the opening of the local Carmina store.

ic...so even if the carmina shoes cost $300+, gst still application?

shoes 2,000 sek
taxes 500 sek
shipping 200 sek

Total 2,700 sek

makes sense?

To be honest I'm not sure what applies for the odd stock Carmina.

Haven't bought them in awhile.

For carmina, google linnegatan2. They don't charge this "equalisation tax" to offset the high rentals at capitol.

Good going.
Factor in 7% gst + 10-20 bucks of handling fees depending on Courier still cheaper than sg store no matter.

Hi,
Opinions needed for a pair of calf leather chukkas.
1. Edetal Changi II;
2. Crockett and Jones Tetbury or
3. Alfred Sargent Radwell.

Welcome all comments/suggestions/opinions.

I have 2 of Ed's shoes prior to them changing supplier for their leathers.
I would suggest you look at the other 2.

Can also consider Carlos Santos.

+1. The price differential is definitely significant enough for an easily discernible difference in terms of leather and construction quality.

FWIW, the Tetbury on the 348 last is fairly elongated and chiseled. More dressy than casual/rugged looking.

 

[kangaroo]

Taking a serious look at Carlos Santos too. Thanks for the suggestions.

Actually, if you have a Tetbury / Radwell kind of budget... You aren't far off from putting Bonafe into the equation as well.

Hi thundermarch,
What's the damage for EB? Edetal's budget is fine. Tetbury/Radwell takes a fair bit of inner convincing. Inner turmoil lah. Have not spent more than $350 on a pair of shoes before. Reading this forum and style forum almost on a daily basis is like a slow poison taking hold...
Plus also I am UK11/12 size so buying online has its risks..

Ah, OK... Then probably not. They are 700 odd.
