In defense of Avoca...
I can understan...@Jennifer<br /><br />In defense of Avoca...<br /><br />I can understand why their sweaters are at that price range since they are handwoven at Avoca. It's a product unique to Ireland you can't get anywhere else. Not mass produced in some sweatshop in Thailand. I'm assuming the labor is intensive.<br /><br />Also the material can jack up the price sky high especially if it's cashmere. Most of the products I've seen there are quality and, for a boutique store, those prices are not atypical. C'est la vie.<br /><br />When you translate GBP into $$$ it's always overpriced anyway. Have you compared the Gap prices in North America to UK? It's ridiculous! They don't call the UK ripoff central for nothing. :)Flippin' Yankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04622875046958372575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-72993018916157699522009-07-24T08:26:43.899+01:002009-07-24T08:26:43.899+01:00Hop Along: I never really went in there?!?

...Hop Along: I never really went in there?!? Eh?!! <br /><br />I was on placement at BBCNI for two weeks and went into Avoca at least three times! <br /><br />Also, in my world, overpriced means I could afford to buy a couple things from there but the prices are totally unjustifiable! $300 (150pounds) for a sweater??? Come on, Avoca!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03655301536976885582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-38734340580263473822009-07-24T06:48:19.957+01:002009-07-24T06:48:19.957+01:00@Hop Along

It's too dear.<br /><br />Do keep up! <br /><br />P.S. I hope you got me something good! You make more money than the Beatles anyway. :PFlippin' Yankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04622875046958372575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-38444385325448864642009-07-24T06:20:45.481+01:002009-07-24T06:20:45.481+01:00Jennifer, you never really went in there but you k...Jennifer, you never really went in there but you know it's over priced?
