Working retail I run into many people who are shopping for an event that night. I hate being in that predicament but it is good for the store as customers are bound to settle much more.

This. I've run into occasions where I've had to settle for something not exactly what I wanted, but I needed it that day for an event so I was stuck shopping at local shops. Things come up in real life, and some people may need stuff delivered same day. If you live in NYC and don't see your own need to use it, that's fine. I'd rather a store have more options to cater for customers, than less options.... Especially since the majority of MrP pricing is competetive (at least for the brands I shop for there).

I used same-day once for delivery to my workplace, let's just say the experience was the opposite of 'discreet'... butbut.gif

Bet it showed up in an armored truck, and needed fingerprint verification instead of a signature.

This E-shop is by far the best out of the internet. Pacakiging is superb and shipping is fast and cheap (overseas). I'm speaking of Mr, Porter UK. CS is very good since they try to help you where they can. Often I get free shipping during sales if my package cannot be combined (my own fault since I get greedy during sales ). 

 

Mr Porter makes internet shopping a godsense!!

 

During restock I happily catched one band of outsiders double breasted blazer size 4 from last summer and suede baseball jacket size 3 :)

I ordered this Paul Smith Camel Coat in a size 40.  I was hoping it would run a bit small as I am a true 38.  It runs true to size. 

 

Will send it back soon, but let me know if anyone wants it, will let it go for cost.

This is very good office. bright, modern, well organized, clean, consider they are just a online retailer. I feel like their employees are treated well.

I wonder how their US office look like.

I thought porter was still owned by the founder it turns out I'm wrong.

Now porter is owned by Richemont Group. Richemont is big at watch and Jewelry. Wow they have Porter. Wow.
