How to shop at Argos UK in the Netherlands and  Holland

In the past, Argos UK has not offered delivery services for merchandise sold to the Netherlands, but that has recently changed  with the launch of a new  site called  Argos-Netherlands which will  deliver to the Netherlands  the smaller and less expensive items available on its online operations. Although at Argos-Netherlands, you will find a wide selection of the popular items and international well loved brands that Argos sells in the UK, it is however only a small fraction of the goods that the Argos UK site has in stock.

Argos UK offers items such as the latest innovations in technology products such as  laptops, TVs, etc. and the most reliable brands like  iPods, Xbox 360, Nintendo 3Ds and much more; the latest toys and the top brands such as Lego, Barbie and Sylvanian families;  in their extensive furniture range a large selection of sofas, beds, bedding, rugs, washing machines and fridge freezers; for your garden there is a wide range of BBQs, garden furniture and sheds; a broad range of nursery products such as pushchairs, car seats and cots; and they exclusively offer a range of over 10,000 products to online customers which includes  their increased range of fragrances, skincare and makeup products.

British expatriates living all over the world, including the Netherlands, who have been accustomed to shopping in Argos UK whilst at home, and have enjoyed their vast range and superb quality, and who miss certain products from home, would love to continue buying the products from Argos UK online version, www.argos.co.uk. Argos UK online has a great website offering a vast range and excellent products to their loyal customers, and has become one of the world’s major online retailers boasting millions of customers globally, including those expats living in countries such as the Netherlands. Nevertheless, these customers have been discouraged in many instances from ordering online because until recently Argos UK did not deliver to the Netherlands. Although the launching of the new site Argos-Netherlands, changes that, the delivery of Argos UK products to the Netherlands will not be comprehensive.

Argos-Netherlands can’t sell large items which one delivery man can’t manage on his own. Electrical items will all be supplied with a UK plug, and the range available will be rather limited because it can’t sell some electrical items in the Netherlands. So, although they do stock over 8,000 items, the range won’t be as large as Argos UK. Should the customer need articles from the Argos UK site that the Dutch version Argos-Netherlands site doesn’t deliver, the customer shouldn’t go without, but should simply turn to alternative sites such as UKShoppingInSpain for their delivery services or buy directly from TheExpatMarketplace site.

When Argos Netherlands cannot deliver your purchase, you should opt for a different website such as www.ukshoppinginspain.com. This site was set up so that British expats could obtain the things they need from the UK shops such as Argos UK which do not deliver some items abroad. UKShoppingInSpain.com will place your order and have it delivered to their warehouse in the UK and from there they will have the item delivered to the customer’s home in Spain within a period of 10-14 days.

Otherwise, customers could purchase everything they need from   www.theexpatmarketplace.co.uk which is a huge online one stop shop selling and delivering the goods that Argos UK and other UK shops don’t deliver to the Netherlands. Expats are invited to visit this site and purchase what they need directly, as the site endeavours to deliver everything listed as being available on its website which includes many thousands of products.

Between the new Argos- Netherlands, and these two sites, British expats living in Netherlands now enjoy a wider range of options for having the items they need delivered right to their doorstep:

• Customers may consolidate their shopping by purchasing all items they need directly from TheExpatMarketplace, this online trader promises to deliver all those items which Argos UK and other UK shops will not deliver to their home in the Netherlands.
• If loyal Argos UK customers wish to continue sourcing their favourite items from Argos, but find Argos- Netherlands won’t deliver those items, they can contact UKShoppingInSpain for assistance with delivery.
• If a customer wishes to continue shopping at Argos UK while in the Netherlands, but is not too confident about shopping online, UKShoppingInSpain can take over and do the customer’s shopping for them, and all the customer has to do is pay UKShoppingInSpain for the order, relax and wait until the order is delivered on their doorstep in the Netherlands.
