Uk Shopping In Spain For Expats Is Now A Reality With Launch Of Specialist Website

Dec. 4, 2009 - PRLog -- The first and only shopping site for expats in Spain seeking UK goods delivered direct to their homes in Spain by the retailer has been launched at www.ukshopping.es

Unlike other web sites of a similar nature, this is not a courier/transport company seeking to fill vans already leaving the UK for Spain at extortionate rates of up to £45 per kilo! The delivery of goods to a UK address for onward transport (which causes the buyer to lose their consumer rights of a cooling off period under the distance selling regulations by delays in the goods arriving in Spain) and the provision of personal and credit card details to third parties, has until now been the only option. NOT NOW – that has all changed.

With over 25 years of residency in Spain as expats, a husband and wife team have found all the best UK retailers offering delivery direct to homes in Spain at reasonable cost, many of whom they have used themselves, and linked them together in a single site – a specialist shopping mall for the British expat population of Spain. Some retailers will deliver for free, other are looking for just 5 Euros delivery, regardless of just how much is bought. The site includes many household names like Marks & Spencer, Littlewoods, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins, Evans, New Look, QVC, Waterstones - in fact, over 200 shops in total. This number will increase as more UK retailers provide shipping at a reasonable cost.

Also, by popular demand, there are a further 100 top UK retailers including Asda, Argos, B&Q, Next, Sainsbury's and Debenhams who offer UK delivery (often free) and who can deliver to the UK depot of an independant courier for onward delivery to Spain with specially negotiated rates as low as £1.50 per kilo for users of the site.  

All purchasing and delivery options are contracted by the site user, ensuring that all their consumer rights are fully protected.

Expats who miss their UK brands and UK shops can now shop direct with household UK High street names in the comfort of their home and wait for delivery direct to their own door. With the pound so week at the moment, it makes sense and will save expats a fortune this Christmas.
