I just got these! Well, I just won the auction, I didn't get them yet, but they're paid for so they're technically mine now.

I was so amazed to find something so nice in my size! (10w) I even did a google search to see if I could find them to find out what the retail price is, but I couldn't find these exact ones. Similar ones of the same brand apparently retail for anywhere from 120.00 to 170.00. Guess how much I paid for them??? 6.99!!!!! It's nice to know there are benefits to having extra big feet, not a lot of people to get in a bid war with :P

They're not brand new, but apparently they were only worn one time, and there were other pictures that show the bottoms and from what I could tell they probably really were only worn once, none of the writing on the bottom was even a little bit worn off.

I'm so excited about these shoes!

Heeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyy!

Did you check with us about going shopping, Shilo?

I know it was on-line but an invitation would've been nice. :blush:

Great score though!

I never stop shopping lately. I'm going to need an intervention soon :unsure:

Got a bid on a sewing machine currently, lol. Cross your fingers for me, I REALLY want it, but I can't afford to raise my bid.

Good luck shopping Shilo. It's always fun finding a bargan and very therapeutic. It's good for you girl, in moderation of course. Kathryn

Congratz!

They look really feminine and pretty.

Love ebay-and have needed an intervention myself for years.Well a couple of people have tried actually-it'd take more than intervention for me at this point.

Enjoy those beauties.

Thanks ^_^ I also ordered a beautiful Green Sapphire ring for my sister, and a few more gems for my "Rock Collection". I even finally got an Opal! Been dying to get an opal since I started collecting. It's only itty, but it has a full range of dancing colors, it's beautiful. And I'm still the leading bid on that sewing machine *knocks on wood*

Got my shoes today ^_^

I haven't tried them on yet, though, since I'm still in my work shoes and heavy socks and they're all sweaty and gross. I'm a bit concerned though, they look a bit small :(

Not to worry Shilo!

There are plenty of us who are more than willing to take them off your hands.LOL

Running away in zig-zag pattern with my head down incase of 12-gauge fire coming my way.

Huggs, :wub:

I've ordered several times from the U.S. and so far I haven't had to pay anything extra for duty. The trick is to keep your items 20.00 value or less, I think they ignore those. I'm expecting to have to pay duty on a Nintendo DSi we ordered for our daughters birthday, so if I do I'll let you know what they charged me vs the cost of the item.

My experiences importing from the US. YMMV

Items coming from the US are usually only charged the HorrendusSalesTax(HST) plus a handling charge of I beleive $10. It's been a while since I imported anything. That is if shipped via USMail(CanadaPost). Brokerage fees by courier companies are usually astronomical so I've avoided dealing with companies who do not ship via USPS(US Postal Service). Lower priced goods usually arrive with no "customs" charges attached. Ofcourse restricted goods are a different story.LOL

Huggs,

Joann

      There are 293 ways to make change for a dollar. The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing (when using the proper position of the hands on the keyboard; Hunting and pecking doesn't count!). A shark is the only known fish that can blink with both eyes.

      I haven't taken blockers since the surgery.

      Good morning   well its big bike week this week American/Canadian made. Followed almost immediately with metric bike week.  And let’s not forget the Myrtle Beach Classic golf tournament last week.  Our business has been very busy. So much so I need to leave earlier to make certain I get my work done before I have too many people in the tpstore and can’t get it done.   Hi ho silver and away   Willow

      I guess this was commonplace in females. But if your prostate gland is still in place this can contribute to urinal difficulties too.

      https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/05/15/peru-chooses-bigotry-medical-services     The Health Ministry tried to put the best face on this unscientific gibberish of a decree, but it won't diminish the harm it will do to the Pervian trans community.  They undoubtedly already suffer from severe discrimination and bigotry in a very macho-opriented society.   Carolyn Marie

      I'd never heard of it until reading this.  From the thread title I thought it had something to do with the state of Idaho.  But perhaps combined with something about Hobbits, which seemed odd.  My brain goes in weird directions.

      I had my surgery 11 years ago, and yes, I too find it much more of an urgent thing than it ever was before.  One possible culprit is going to be T blockers if you are still on them, also the urethral sphincter which holds the pee back is closer to the urethral opening now and more subject to stimulation. When we gotta go we gotta goooooo!!

      I notice that the Wikipedia article does not mention the U.S.A. which I can understand a bit.  The entire month of June here is Pride Month for all the organizations and is tied to the 1969 Stonewall Inn riots in New York and also our medical authorities are also not tied as thoroughly to the WHO as they are to the American Psychological and American Psychiatric Associations which write the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health which is generally in line with the WHO which does not play as big a part in our medical practices here.  The WHO does not impact us the way it does the other world countries which is why we are in the dark about the day.  Ironically though, one of the U.S. States is named Idaho which sadly is one of the most conservative and frustrating to the U.S. LGBTQ Community.   The day is international though in the sense of other European and Southern Hemisphere countries it seems.

      Hmm. Must have been that pesky 'International' word which made me assume that it was well known! I only became aware of it myself last year.   Brief history: May 17th is the day IDAHOBIT is acknowledged as it is the anniversary of when in 1990 the World Health Organization declassified homosexuality as a mental disorder. It was conceived in 2004 and first celebrated in 2005. It has gone on to include trans folk in 2009 and bi folk in 2015.   International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia - Wikipedia

      A year and a half post op. I've noticed that once the urge to pee hits, I can only hold it for about 15 minutes or so until it gets to the point where I feel like I'm going to piss myself. I used to be able to hold it a lot longer (as I  remember it).  I know my urethra is a bit shorter now, but I don't think it is enough to account for this. Am I imagining it?

      What a great moment @Vidanjali! It's always so cool knowing people are reading you in a way you want to be seen.

      It's also networking.  Sometimes jobs come along because someone knows someone else - these older people might know someone.  "Hey, Ashley," someone might say,"My nephew is looking for love. He likes tall women. Whatcha think? Can he call you?"   Don't discount their ability to match make.  It is about networking.

      He is simply doing to get more votes. He held a Trump for trans during his first run and found out the majority of his voters were against us so he simply followed the crowd.
