Hi and welcome to the latest from http://www.stockingshq.com Lots of excitement this week - including an SHQ party - but first... Prices and payments in Euros and US Dollars Very good news... at long last we've finally managed to get mult-currency merchant facilities for credit and debit cards, as well as Amex and Paypal. You can now choose your preferred currency via the top bar on the site and all of the product prices will change accordingly. Better still, the price shown is the price you pay. You're not at the mercy of your credit card company's exchange rate, which means for all customers in the USA and Euro zone, the price you pay should have just come down. I'm just really sorry it took so long. it was actually far, far harder than we ever imagined but we got there in the end. (Other currencies *may* be added over time. Watch this space...) Just visit http://www.stockingshq.com to get started...  Half-price delivery on all orders till Tuesday To celebrate the arrival of multi-currencies, we thought it would be nice to offer half price delivery on all international orders. And then we thought if we're doing that, we may as well do it for the UK too. So, it's half price delivery weekend - right through to the end of Tuesday (or realistically Wednesday morning as my laptop is knackered at the moment.) That means just 95p for UK orders, £2.45 for Europe and £2.95 for the rest of the world. I'm excited on your behalf!  More products on the clearance page Since sending the last message we've discovered some other products (mainly from Stockings & Romance) have now been discontinued, so we've added them to the clearance page too - along with new pictures from our Rago shoot. See them (and other bargains at savings of up to 67%) on the special offers page: http://www.stockingshq.com/featured-ranges/special-offers Farewell to Levee Some very sad news... Levee, the German hosiery company famed for producing products in truly XXXL sizes (up to 6'8") has gone out of business. The liquidators are in, and no more deliveries are expected. The very last pairs are available now on the Levee page: http://www.stockingshq.com/shop-by-brand/levee ... so get in quick if you want some! New arrivals from Gipsy and Le Bourget This is turning into a lengthy one - sorry! But while I'm here I thought I'd draw your attention to the new products page: http://www.stockingshq.com/featured-ranges/new-products ... where you'll see new arrivals from Gipsy and Le Bourget - including the hold-up version of the classic Voilance stockings at a specially discounted price. See you in London (and Manchester!) Finally, for now, if you're within striking distance of London it would be great to meet you at the Stockings HQ forum meetup tomorrow night (Saturday). It's free to attend, and a great social evening for nylon enthusiast. All of the details are on the forum at: http://forum.stockingshq.com/index.php?/topic/10100-dates-for-a-london-meeting/page__st__40 ... which, for those in a hurry, comes down to Tattersall's Tavern, 2 Knightsbridge Green, Knightsbridge, London, SW1X 7QA (closest tube Knightsbridge) from 7-7.30pm onwards Free pens will be given to attendees! Meanwhile, for those in the north west of the UK, a similar event is planned for Manchester on June 11th. Full details are here: http://forum.stockingshq.com/index.php?/topic/10101-dates-for-a-manchester-meeting/ ... and all being well I'll be at that one too. Huge thanks to Long_Legs for organisational skills far beyond the call of duty. And after all that it's time for a lie down... More soon! David@SHQ |
