Gilt Groupe is an amazing shopping destination, and can be so ahead of the retail game; though while they are so on the ball with new technology concerning the just released iPad, Gilt still does not ship to Canada or accept Canadian payment methods.

There have been countless sales I’ve been mashing my face against the keyboard in frustration over, simply because I cannot buy the pieces offered because I’m Canadian.  If you’re an American you’re in luck, since the iPad app allows up to the moment touch screen shopping technology.  To the Canadians, we’re just going to have to wait, though how much longer will Gilt leave us out in the cold?

If you’re serious about letting Gilt know your frustration regarding their archaic payment acceptance practices, write them and tell the founders (Alexandra and Alexis) via Twitter!
