Rip off Muji

    I'm a long time fan of Muji in Chatham St, D2 their stuff is expensive but really nice...

    But I've just discovered the extent to which they are ripping us off!

    I was looking for a specific Japanese size of photo frame, and I came across one on the Muji UK website for 19.95 sterling.

    I called Muji in town and the same frame is 37 euro!!!!! I asked why there was such a big price difference and was told... there just is! :mad:

    So I'm now going to buy my stuff from the UK online store who deliver here...

    No sense in posting a new thread, just another reminder of the huge price differential between buying in Dublin and the UK from Muji.

    I saw a foldup rucksack I liked the look of. Its price tag had both Sterling and Euro prices: £25 / €39.

    Xe.com tells me the current conversion would be: 25.00 GBP = 29.8112 EUR That's a tasty tenner in the difference.

    I will not be supporting any retailer that is still engaging in this practice.

    note the yen to euro difference. The gel pens are what, €4 each? They should be maybe 80c to €1. I don't go there anymore, its just waaaay too expensive.
