Default Hollister Clothing.

Just ordered a girls hoodie as a present for Xmas ...£50 PLUS £10 FOR POSTAGE

I would have thought that a huge company such as Hollister would have a UK warehouse (they must do because they have 22 stores in the UK) but they ship all orders over from the US... and then they say it will take up to 10 days to recieve item.

Rant over!

I really dont get the big appeal of hollister, all seems overpriced to me. They recently opened a store in Reading where I live and people were queuing through the shopping centre to get in! I have got better things to do than queue to get into a shop where its so dark you cant even see anything! Rant over!

Yes Im not denying the quality! Their clothing is great and the price shows it! They could have been a little more forgiving on the postage! (the nearest store to me is Bristol which is an hours drive)

Yes, my daughter wanted some clothes from Hollister. Luckily I go to the US all the time and the strores there have sales of 50% off.

The clothes are actually quite good quality and got some jackets, T-Shirts and fleeces.

You are complaining about £10 shipping from America? Most mainland UK companies believe Northern Ireland is on the darkside of the Moon and price their delivery service accordingly. It is a fecking joke.
