United Kingdom of Great Britain & N. Ireland (Press Release) November 1, 2007 --
Distant Brits, British Expats favourite online grocery store is delighted to announce the launch of its brand new service Expat Despatch in time for Christmas delivery.
Although most high street retailers have an online buying facility they do not ship abroad. Now Distant Brits is offering this unique service. Customers can order their favourite toys from Argos or Knickers from M&S, have them delivered to Distant Brits’ head office in Dorset and they will do the rest. This includes checking the order is complete and undamaged, returning any damaged goods to the store and re-packaging if necessary.
Delivery time is dependent on the supplier sending their goods to Distant Brits, but once the merchandise is received the order can be shipped within 48 hours. Depending on where the parcel is being sent i.e. Europe v Far East customers will receive their goods within a maximum of 5 working days.
Handling costs are kept to the minimum, £20 within the EU plus shipping and £25 outside the EU plus shipping. If customers also order from Distant Brits at the same time, there’s a £5 discount on these charges.
Another bonus for European-based Expats (who enjoy a flat rate shipping charge) if they place an order with Distant Brits they may not have to pay any additional shipping charges
Sarah Daykin MD Distant Brits said: -
We can ship anything as long as it's legal and not live!
The ocean is no longer barrier to getting your ball-gowns from Monsoon or your favourite cosmetics from Boots.
