    ive had a reply

    they have quoted $1182 for the dress think works out about £800
    there wasnt anything said about postage even though i gave them the address. on the website it says international postage starts at $50 but goes with weight.

    if i have to pay duty and vat it will cost £300

    i dont know if its worth the risk and hassle for a £200 saving :think:


    thank you for all your help x your an :A

    PS I'd be cheeky (as they do have a 'name your price' section) And ask if they can round it down to $1000 and throw in postage free, they can only say no, but then may be worth doing?

    Hi frannyann, I've really gone off my dress I've bought and have completely changed my mind about the style I want!

    Could you please see if you can find anything like this for me please

    http://www.dollycouture.com/index.php/collection/the-milan-gown.html

    I'd like a more fitted top half with a sweetheart neckline and I'm a size 8.

    Thank you so much :)
