Vegan Essentials

[Abyssinian]

I was looking at the vegan essentials website and I was thinking about maybe ordering some stuff. The problem is that I don't know how long it will take until the stuff gets here. Last time I bought something online from a store in the US, it took 4 weeks to get here. That's a really long time.
Has anyone in Europe bought anythig from vegan essentials?

When I first bought something from vegan essentials it took ages to get here. However, I recently ordered some cow girl boots in the sale and they arrived in about a week, maybe a bit longer. The postage was more than the actual boots (£11) which was quite excessive but seeing as the boots were reduced to £9 I went for it.

The only annoying thing is that when you order it they don't tell you the postage, but email you before dispatch saying how much it will be. You then have 48 hours to reply saying no, otherwise they will send it. Make sure you ask them to contact you about shipping prices, there's a note thing at the bottom of the order form that you can fill in with questions.

I think it's really hit or miss as to how long things take to arrive. But i was pleasantly surprised to find my boots here this morning. They fit and look fantastic :D

I ordered from them regularly when I lived in S. Korea and never had a problem with shipping. I think it's fairly standard to not know the shipping costs upon ordering when placing international orders. I ordered various things from all over the world while in S. Korea and none of them were ever able to tell me instantly what the shipping would be. I always got e-mail notification and since I checked my e-mail frequently, it was never a problem. Well, that and the fact that I was generally willing to pay whatever cost necessary to get the item. ^_^
