Exchange Rate Promotes Foreign Purchases of American Luxury

7 for all mankind brand jeansBargain hungry shoppers from all over the world are taking advantage of the weak dollar.  Customarily, American goods such as 7 for all mankind jeans, True Religion jeans, Ed Hardy hats and tees and associated high-end items cost up to twice as much once exchange rates are applied once said items are sold in foreign stores and boutiques.  This is not the case when the consumer buys directly from an American boutique.  For those not able to leave their countries and to shop, e-boutiques such as www.kultic.com offer a great opportunity for some serious shopping. 

For example, 7 for all mankind jeans, True Religion jeans, Citizens of humanity jeans and Hudson jeans sell for about $120-$180 within the  U.S. sell for about £274.41-£411.61 in their UK couterparts.  These same jeans, when bought within U.S. borders will cost the consumer £61.18-£91.76 plus shipping and tarriffs.
