Topshop - Soho, New York - delayed in store opening but you can shop the website!

This article I saw in WWD last week on 9/4/08.

"Topshop is running into delays with its SoHo flagship and is now eyeing a November opening ( we hope sooner), instead of mid-October as originally hoped.The New York store, Topshop’s first in the U.S. and highly anticipated considering the retailer’s reputation in Europe as a mecca for fast fashion, is racing to launch in time for holiday selling.But as a precursor in order to ease anxious American shoppers, the U.K.-based chain will launch a U.S.-dollar version of its Web site on Sept. 9. (TODAY!)

Topshop is offering a free Kate Moss charity T-shirt to the first U.S. customers spending more than $50 on the site. For each T-shirt given, a $5 donation will be made to the Starlight Children’s Foundation. Topshop has 2,000 T-shirts available to give away.

I will check out the website and see if there is anything I want to buy.
I hope the prices are a bit cheaper since the British pound is losing value.
