My wife was in London on a business trip just before Christmas, and she went into Harrods and tried on a red Burberry trench coat.
She really liked it but it wasn't her size, and they didn't have hers in stock. But she remembered what the name of the style was, and I was able to buy it for her from the Japanese portal of the Burberry website. Interesting point, it was USD 600 cheaper from the Japanese language version of the site than the English version of the site.
They shipped it from the U.K. to Japan in 48 hours, gift wrapped at no extra cost.
When it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to find it was 'made in the UK', since I had seen a British documentary about 8 years ago that showed all production going out to China.
The quality of the coat is very very high.
