I live in Canada and if I want to buy a pair of jeans from Denim Bar how would I go about it. The last time I tried ordering from Denimbar from Canada I had trouble doing so and my order didn't go through.

How about for customs? will Denimbar mark down the value of the jeans in order to not get charged? I think it has to be less than $20?

Plese help, thank you

If you are near a border you can ship them to a letter carrier in the US and pick them up yourself.

ghulkhan's offer is probably the easiest

Just contact them directly. With a phone. Or email. It's easy.

I read it as he is willing to help out by buying what you want from denimbar, marking it as a gift for nominal or no, value, and shipping to you from his personal address, all for $25. Sounds reasonable to me.

Aren't you the one who started this thread asking for help? How ungrateful you are, expecting him to go through the hassle of buying the stuff for you and then shipping it himself to you in Canada for nothing. Are you his gf? Be thankful he went out of his way to offer you a reasonable option.

ummmm, denimbar does have international shipping, so i dunno why he even offered for me to pay EXTRA money to get the same pair of jeans from denimbar for less. Which was why I thought he was joking (or being an ass).

The real issue is this, the last time I tried using a Canadian credit card on the DB site it did not go through, so I was wondering if they fixed that. Or if they accept another form of payment, perhaps paypal.

I'm guessing he lives near the store. And is offereing to pick them up, and ship for 25 dollars. Which is 5 dollars less than denimbar will charge you. In the end, you don't get hit with duty and save $5 shipping. Denimbar accepts paypal.
