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

      Well, it is officially summer.  85 degrees outside the last two days, and GF is sick and irritable.  I have to curl up under heavy blankets in my nest, because she's got the AC turned down to the point I expect to see icicles growing on the ceiling.  This is what life is like when your partner is an arctic creature. I should be used to it by now, but just when I think its nice and warm, she has to freeze me.

      I just can't resist.  Does all that mean that.............the bird is the word? 
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Well, that might be interesting.  At least since she's 24, its not like you're on the hook for expenses.

      Been using the wok on the back deck a lot the last few months.  Just got another stock of udon noodles from Amazon and we are using those in the stir fry with onions, peppers and a spicy peanut sauce.  I did this often in the 90's too, but back then I was just using a standard Coleman camp stove instead of this high BTU wok burner.  I've had the burner for a couple years, but haven't been using it regularly until recently.

      Lovely!

      I’m a lefty. Learned to be a bit ambidextrous for certain tools that assume right handedness like scissors, but couldn’t write with my right hand to save my life.

      Tangent, adjacent, opposite...  It's still rock n' roll to me.  I don't know about the "in god we trust" part of the money, but I like the lady with the scale.  And then I look left at the Indian statue on my mantel of Guanyin feeding a drop of liquid to the dragon at her feet.  In god we trust?  The lady with the scale?  Maybe this is too binary.  And then on the other side of Guanyin is that kind of pelican wood bird that sits two feet tall that I hauled back from South America through the Panama canal.  The beak broke in 1998 and I carefully saved the pieces (as I usually do) and attached them back about a decade ago.  I used a drill to make a small hole and then put a finish nail in there.  Then a hole on those two pieces that needed to be attached.  Upper and Lower beak.  There is still a seam showing.  I could cover that up, but the beak is a bright yellow and well, it's better with all the pieces in place and I don't mind seeing the crack.  I guess that is the tangent and the other two are the opposite and adjacent. -money  Why don't coders always code the "-" action in their search fields?  It's not that difficult!

      A maxi dress with blue and white and some Berkenstock style flip flops.

      @April Marie Yes, it's something to shop for at least for 6-8 weeks. 
    • VickySGV
      Definitely points to learn and keep in mind.  A bunch of stuff I had put in mental "cold storage" thawed out a bit there and ready again to run through my mill.  As said, a bit long and as usual from her a tad bit challenging.  Overall I see it and can use it as a working hypothesis.

      Yes,I hate that     Also finding out I might be father of a 24 year young lady.I had an one night stand with a woman off base when I was in the army.Called this afternoon and said I am possibly the father of her now 24 year old daughter.Told her I will agree with a paternity test that will be done.

      Yeah.  I like Nebula, that was where I watched it.   I posted the YouTube cause I figured more people could see it.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      We agree on most of this... and the church/state thing is kind of a tangent anyways. Oops. LOL   I think it has long been established that all different kinds of groups have access to public funds. In my opinion, either everybody has access or nobody does. I would prefer "nobody."   Relying on public funds gives the government the power to take it away, and puts that power in the hands of whatever group controls the government at the moment... the news article that is the topic of this thread shows a clear example of that happening.  Organizations trust government at their peril.
