Awespme deal for US Wossers (but not exclusively)

edited June 2011 in Chit chat
I'm thinking Beanz (although I don't see Beanz wearing Skechers ;)), Normski, Klepto here, if you like Skechers shoes check this link out, but be quick, they're trying to fix it the shoes are supposed to be $56, they've already fixed the blue ones but the brown ones are still messed up.

Just ordered 3 pairs for myself (missus Boozies mate ordered herself 21 pairs :lol:)

Be warned though it's like they know they've effed up and are doing everything possible to make ordering them awkward. It took about an hour to get our order to actually go through. But it's worth the hassle.

$3 for a pair of $56 sneaks, musn't grumble :D

Free shipping to anywhere else in the world if you make an account on the site...apparently, it'd be worth signing up for the cheapness.

EDIT: Arse! I was going so fast I typo'd the title (The o with a p as well oh my oh my)! :lol:

    Unfortunately a lot of online retailers simply don't honour the purchase and credit the money back to your card. I've had it about four or five times with play.com when they've listed something for the incorrect price. They've probably got something buried deep in their T&C's.

    Hopefully yours will be honoured though :-)

    Aye but for $3 a pair I have work shoes ahoy and don't have to knacker my good ones at work.

    I've already had to sling out a nice pair of white Vans that got F**ked up at work and now I'm happily destroying my fave pair of Airwalks. Fortunately I got another pair of those cheap....yes I like skate shoes, they're the only shoes I can wear with my Streetfighter Alpha character feet.

    I'm not denying it, my feet are fat as fook, Blanka's feet could fit into chic high heels compared to my big mongy pasties :D

    Poop..missed it, says $56 again.

    Bugger! Missed it! Not surprising though as I haven't been online much in the past few days. I had me tonsils pulled out on friday and been in much pain. I don't sound like a women now by way (there was a thread about that not too long ago).
  • edited May 2011
    Well I guess now it's just a matter of time to wait and see if they turn up, or if some L33T Haxxor has rustled Mrs. Boozies credit card details instead :D

    Think it was a genuine F-up though, as we got some receipts and a conformation shipping email from Skechers. Although I'm expecting a cancelled order email in the next day or so saying the site was hacked or something like that?

    Let us know if they show up, be interesting to see if they will honor it.

    Meant to get back on this a week or so back, the orders got cancelled, funnily enough the email they sent the missus basically said they would've honoured the majority of domestic requests had so many (obvious) independant shoe traders not requested orders in the excess of 500 pairs :lol:

    Sure if we were typical arses we could've pursued them for the shoes under some trading standard, but nah, Skechers are sh*te anyway I only really wanted them for work, so I'm not really that bothered.
