SWEET
J. Crew is currently having 40% off their Sale items. Similar to this deal a few months ago. $10 flat rate shipping to Australia. Yes I know about the Australian tax — AUD $140.40 vs. USD $99.99 for Ludlow vest, AUD $421.20 vs USD $299.99 for Ludlow sportcoat for example. Not to mention that the sale items there are getting up to 50% off at the moment with a different code (TREAT). Yeah but the posting rules here — no ship-forwarding deals — are there to make sure deals are accessible to Australians.
So for good branded apparels with 40% off delivered to you — SWEET. For even more discount — switch to US site, TREAT and organise your own ship forwarding.
FYI, they also have 20% off outside US for AMEX card holders. Code is JCREWAMEX20. So if it's a non-sale item and you still want it, consider this. T&Cs:
