    Hi all,

    Has anybody based in Crete bought things from UK sites and had goods delivered from the UK? - food, clothing, maybe electronic goods from Amazon... ?

    I wouldn't mind getting some 'home comforts' sent over but not sure which retailers/companies deliver to the island.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I've done some research of my own and in terms of clothes, a few UK retailers are now delivering to Crete...

    Cotton Traders - 4 day delivery (£6.95)
    Marks and Spencer - 10-14 day delivery (£15)
    Next - free delivery but doesn't say how long...

    Feel free to add!

    Our new services site, Expat-Quotes, has a section on shopping abroad. Here you can check out companies and receive free quotes. These listings are still growing, but might be a good place to start.

    Do let us know what you find!
