    I'm buying Abercrombie & Fitch stuff online for an Xmas pressie. Does anyone know the following:
    • Are the men's sizes similar to here; as in a Male Large in a hoody would be a Male Large here?
    • Is the customs a huge amount when it's delivered?

    You could end up paying a large amount of duty/tax depending on how much you spend. Last time I ordered from the Benefit website I got about €55 worth of makeup and ended up paying another €20 on top of that. Don't forget they include the postage cost when calculating - sneaky feckers.

    It was on topic, the OP posted this in the anime and manga forum. :confused:

    Regardless of where it was started, it was not on topic. Your post didn't have anything to do with the OP's question. If you have nothing helpful to add to this thread then I suggest you do not post.

    But it was in the anime and manga when I posted it. Are you a mod of that forum?
