Remember in one of my previous posts when I compared the prices of one identical dress at two different stores in Kuwait? Well, here's another interesting price comparison brought to our attention by the owner of "Pinkmoon Boutique". Apparently, this grey coat by Graham & Spencer is 66 pounds more expensive at Net-a-porter than it is at MyPinkmoon, and that's excluding the minimum 30 pounds shipping fee you would have to pay for international shipping.
Still not convinced? Then check out the price difference of Paul & Joe's Loose fitting silk black and beige dress at Pinkmoon and ShopBop.com. Interesting, isn't it?

Pinkmoon Boutique owner has also added that: "At Pinkmoon, we have a lot of designers that other sites carry, but with us you not only get a great price, you get it the next day". Very convenient!
Brands sold at Pinkmoon include: Botkier, Development, Graham & Spencer, Julie Sandlau, Kenneth Jay Lane, Mannoush (coming soon), Mint, Paul & Joe, Paul & Joe Sister, T-Bags, Tibi, True Religion.
So what's the lesson learned from this post? Do your homework and research before you spend and splurge.

They will set you up with an American address and will hold any purchases you make in the US and forward them to you in one box. It is a great service for anyone that lives outside the US!
its been a while since they inlcuded all the gulf countried (Kuwait included of course) to their tax free scheme... if i remember correctly that resulted in very competitive pricing.
has anyone taken that into account?
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I have never heard of bongous.com and it was very interesting going through their website so thanks again :)

I think the prices we see currently on NAP are already TAX free. If I'm not mistaken since the revamp of their website, they can identify users who visit their site and from which country they are from, so by default they'll show you the prices tax free if you're a non-EU resident.
