When I ordered from Amira I had to send cash with a friend who was visiting her. I don't think she deals with credit cards which is why Dahlal and the like have some advantages after all credit card means insurance. We would still have pay customs of course on top of postage wether you order from US or Egypt. For you in the US ordering from Dahlal, they must have built taxes into the price.
Wether you get it any faster ordering yourself I am not sure. I would think the proirity goes to dancers visting Amira in Cairo then personal direct telephone or fax maybe.
My dress was perfect, I discussed with her what I wanted and she told me of a new material so I went for that but a friend's got a completely different dress despite faxing the Dahlal photo!
I ordered an Eman through Faridance last dec and it arrived 2 months later ....bit differnt to Dahlal, I am waiting for an Amira dress since June . I have been informed it's been posted on 10th...but we still have posties on strike in Liverpool and guess where it will come through and where HM Customs is? Fingers crossed they are using courier!
