Online retail stores are mushrooming exponentially each day. Many of then are genuine, credible and offer differentiating goods. It is a win-win situation for the consumer as well as the e-tailer. The consumer is spoilt silly for choice and competitive pricing, not to mention the time saved in commuting and escaping the parking nightmare. The seller on the other hand, can reduce costs compared to a brick-and-mortar store and can afford to pass on the savings to the buyer. So all’s hunky dory!
While most of us are well aware of the leading online Indian merchants – FashionAndYou, Myntra, Jabong, Craftsvilla, Yebhi and so many others, the purpose of this post is to bring to you some international sites, especially those offering free shipping to India. These sites are a treasure trove of Western goods and sometimes offer steep discounts. The standard shipping offered is free; any expedited shipping would have associated costs. Also, there is no minimum order for the sites given here. But do watch out for custom tax. The sites listed here are ideal for those on a budget; they usually do not have high end brands participating, with the exception of Asos.
1. Asos.com
Asos has a staggering array of reasonably priced bags. In fact, it is an all rounder with well-stocked items in all categories – apparel, make-up and accessories. Do check out their jumpsuits.
2. Chicnova.com
Chicnova is another wholesome site. They have a decent collection of bags. Their Knitwear is a must-see section. They even offer a 20% discount on your first order.
3. Choies.com
Choies is a fun site with plenty to offer in each category. Their Knitwear section is massive and impressive. They have a free trial section, where one can apply for the item put up for free trial and complete some activities given. Thereafter one among those who complete the activities is chosen and they receive the item and shipping entirely free of charge. You can even save 15% on your first order.
4. Oasap.com
Clothes are their strong point, but they are fair enough in the rest of the categories as well. Oasap offers a 16% off on your first order. They too have a free trial section like Choies.
5. Romwe.com
This one has a very minimal collection of bags and jewellery; dismal in makeup. Their core focus is on apparel where the collections are rather exhaustive. You must check out their legging collection – you’d find a wide variety and unusual stuff. Wish they scale up on accessories.
Have restricted the list to only five e-stores so as to not confuse the readers! We’ll will come up with a second compilation soon! So what are you going to shop for today?

What yo said last is true indeed. Romwe has limited collection in accessories. I have found Asos to be of much use.
