vResistance Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 My wife bought some online a few weeks ago but they were seized as fakes by customs. she was able to claim the money back on her credit card insurance but was told not to say she'd recieved a letter telling her of the siezure,just say they hadn't arrived.(not covered otherwise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 As a side note - I'd be very wary of an site based in China stating it sells 'authentic' UGG boots. UGG are an Australian brand and the boots are made in Australia - these boots are very easy reproduce using cheaper inferior materials and unfortunately China is a well known hot spot for counterfit goods, especially trainers and shoes. If something seems too good to be true is usually is. I thought the same. I then thought that perhaps the proximity of Australia to China and a favourable exchange rate and "grey imports" would mean a saving, but it seems a little unusual. But then again look at the Chinese ebay sellers who can knock out a Bluetooth dongle for £1.99 - and sometimes include postage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulgarian Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Why ladies want to look like they have elephants feet is beyond me. But that's fashion for you, people just follow it regardless of how dumb it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulgarian Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Each to their own eh? that's not the SF way, we have to berate anyone who follows any kind of fashion, and accuse them of being mindless drones or sheeple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
