I misread and picked the 3rd option, but really it's that one for me.That last one cracked me up. I thought it was going to say "Not much has changed for me and I'm still buying stuff I can afford".
they’re struggling but they’ve also been able to offload quite a bit of overhead with rent/lease payment abatements and furloughs. Slashing prices is one of trying to keep some sort of revenue stream alive.
Prior to all of this, I received a $250 gift card from Paul Stuart. It expires on 4/30 (the last day of our shelter in place order in Chicago....I hope) and it’s not good for anything online. I’ll certainly try to use it when they open back up again.
Not sure why your gift card has an expiration date this early as you stated that you recently received it. Gift Cards, in the state of New York, by law have a 5 year expiration. Here in Massachusetts, we have a 7 year expiration on gift certificates and merchandise credits. We've never denied credit to any of our customers who have exceeded the time frame. Make friends not enemies.
Just to chime in on the shipping, I use DHL Express for my shop and in Europe the delivery is still 1 business day while to the US is 2-3 up from 1-2 during these times (understandable). Very interesting to see how it affects shops like the Rake or Mr. Porter.The poll has limited options--in my case, I've reduced spending on clothes out of uncertainty over future income but am still buying occasional items on sale to support stores where I can. For instance, the small Swedish boutique Linnegatan did a "Prevail Sale" where they reduced by 30% now instead of in August to liquidate their stock now. Cavour and others are doing similar things for similar reasons. An obstacle is delayed shipping for other vendors. The Rake, based in the UK, indicated 4-6 week shipping time for some items. Receiving the occasional clothing item is, as always, also a means of obtaining some pleasure or joy in confinement.
