  1. Never had a problem with parcels being tampered with but taking photos and refusing delivery would be a good start if this problem keeps happening. I bought my first pair og heels in 2006/7 on Ebay for a total £25. A pair of red cross-strap courts from Pleaser. Now if I would I wanted to buy a pair of Pleaser heels of Ebay would cost me £46 at the least. Back then finding a pair of size uk9 in stores was hard but not impossible. Today I could buy a pair of New look heels for around £25 or less if I wait for the sales. I could do the same on Ebay for around £20. So it seems buying Pleaser heels on Ebay seems silly. Ebay sellers sort of priced themselves out from me buying from them.
  2. I bought a pair of Barratts ankle books on line about 3 years ago and they did come in a Barratts box. Got asked by my mum what i was doing buying women's shoes and I had to lie to her. I did say I would go shoe shpping this weekend. I didn't go as i felt it would be very busy in town and I have to be comfortable when trying on heels. I go during the week.. Got 3 pairs up on Ebay on Buy it Now See how that works out.
  3. I didn't think that some one would look into the box. I was more thinking that if my neighbours saw a Dorothy Perkins box, they then might start asking questions. Got my refund for the Aldo shoes. I,m not looking to good on Ebay at the moment The last 4 buys I,ve had to try to get refunds on. Left Negs for two sellers as refused refunds. One for those black heels with the short heels The other kept on refusing to take an item back and in the end had to ring Ebay to sort it out. One item was damaged but still useable and had the items been packaged better this would never of happened but got a full refund of £5 that I wasn't expecting. I didn't ask for one. I,n not going to leave any feedback on this or the Aldo shoes either. Now all I got to do is decide what to do with those New look heels. They just seem to be bigger then a size 9 should be. I have notice that most of my other New look heels are 42/9 these are 43/9.
  4. I didn't order them. I hoping to click and collect them but that opition wasn't available on this item. I knew I wasn't going to be in and I didn't want my neigbours signing for them.
  5. I like the ones shown in the link. Will order them if I can collect them. Have bought my best pair of high heels from Debenhams.
  6. I have 8 pairs of New Look shoe, All are size 9uk 42/43. None are wide but I thought I had pair that were wide fitting but I think I wrong on that account . 5 pairs fit me well and I can wear them all day. Just 2 pairs that are a little tight. That just leaves this pair being to big. I don't think I,m a New look size 8 wide but will try some on the next time I go shoe shopping. Thinking of going this week end. .
  7. I used just sell any heels that were to small back on Ebay, but in the past year have made such a huge loss that I have now had to try and return unwanted heels back to the seller. I,ve asked the seller if he will allow a return. I have always wanted a pair from Aldo but it seems I going have to give up on that idea..Seller does seem to buy his stock from Aldo mainly ex display to sell on Ebay. Moving on. Bought this pair again on Ebay. at the same time I bought the last pair. Now I thought I have wide feet so bought this pair as a uk9 wide, (New Look). This time coming up as far to big. I can get my finger between my heel and the back of the shoe. They also pinch in one place on my left foot. I expect I keep this pair but sell on at a later, The thing is I have a bunion on my left so I try to buy sandals or heels that I have been buying lately.
  8. Sorry if you feel that you waisted 2 hours responding to this post. Now that I had a third look at the shoes there is some size marking on the inside just very faint. So I can't return them as SNAD. You also explained about the box which has also helped. Just wanted to get all the facts right before I speak to the seller. I didn't noticed he was a business seller before I bid. I never did get a refund for those other shoes in the end so I lost £30. Turns out Paypal only reversed the payment while the case was open and now the case been close with me losing the seller has the money now. I also had to get Ebay invloved in another case where the business seller would not have refunded otherwise. Seem I,m not having much luck on Ebay at the moment. Thanks with your help.
  9. SNAD means Significantly Not As Described. The box also shows the model name of the shoes which are the same as the shoes I bought.
  10. Just bought this pair from Ebay. "ALDO JULIETTE Ladies Nude Leather Peep Toe Heels UK 9.5 EU 42.5" Just in case you want to have a look at the listing. Tried them on this morning and are a tight fit. May not be able to wear them. There is no sizing on the shoes themselves but on the box it,s usa11 euro42 and uk9. I think I have a good case SNAD. Going to try to get my money back from the seller. Any input would help here.
  11. Did mean to buy this pair on Friday but forgot all about them. Maybe at £60 it might of been for the best as I know I can't walk in them Did try to buy this pair today but got out bid at the last moment.
  12. Bought both these pairsfrom ebay. The nude ones are from Just Fab and the other pait are from ASOS . I,m in no hurry to sell my heels of, as I have the space but I do sell or throw away the odd pair from time to time. No point in me selling this pair as I damaged the heel as you can see. Never liked this pair I bought cheap off Ebay, not sure what it is. Nure sure if its the shape of the heel or shape of the foot bed. Apart from that they are a very comfortable pair to wear and the strap is easy to do up. The heel feels higher then they are for some reason. That be 3 pairs of heels I had to throw away this year. A pair of boots that fell apart, that black pair that we been talking about and this pair. Still got 3 more pairs to sell at some point. 2 pairs with a very high heel. and the wedges that I tried to sell last month. Then I might sell another 2 pairs that I don't wear much.
  13. Didn't buy those heels in the end. Wasn't sure if I could do the ankle strap and bidding went high on them as we Sold this pair on Ebay today. Got £36 less p&p for them Which I,m pleased with Bought another 2 pairs of heels this week. Will post photos once I get my camera out again. I look on ebay everyday. I,m watching around 5 pairs at the moment but not going to buy any of them.
  14. Never been asked If I wanted to try a pair of heels on. Only been asked if they were for me but that was at when I was paying for them. I think you get a better responce from older woman then a younger waman.
  15. Thinking of buying this pair. Not to wear as there is no way I can walk in them but have on show.
  16. Been watching this pair on Ebay. Might buy them but not sure. What I like about is that they are from *New Look" Don't have many problems with that brand. I also like the crome heel and the clasp. What I,m not sure about is the style. A boot should look like a boot not half boot half shoe. I think I would have problem matching an outfit to wear with those. Also not sure about the ankle strap fitting my fat ankles, but I have that problem with all ankle strap heels
  17. Sometimes I think that if you not expecting something wrong your not going to notice straight away that there is something wrong. It took me a little while with the pair of heels that clicked. At first I thought it was the cardboard tag that was tied to the right heel that was causing the click but it was the heel being poorly fitted. I couldn't remove the tag incase the seller needed the tag still fitted to the shoe. I bought a pair of "Faith" slingback heels with two straps that cross over at the back a couple of years ago from Ebay. The first time I tried them on one strrap broke on the left heel. I might of pulled a little harder then I would of done in a shop. but not that hard. I,m not sure if was my fault or there was a manufacturing fault which caused the strap to break. The seller did offer a part refund, but at the time I didn't want to goto cobblers, so I returned them.
  18. You would think that if the seller had the other mismatched pair, they would want to have the wrong boot back and send you the right one. It s good that the seller refunded with out any hassle but odd unless the seller never had a matched pair in the first place,
  19. Sorry to play Devils Advocate, but auctions provide preview opportunities, and no-one has to bid. If I'm not sure, I don't bid. Surely this applies to everyone? I do try to make sure that I,m bidding on a pair of heels that I can wear but I do my the odd mistake. Have go much better at this. When I bought my first pair of heels on Ebay they turned out to be 2 sizes to big for me but I more then happy to wear them but sold them on as used a year or so later. I think I also sold 3 or 4 pairs on as they were to small. I also think it not the sellers fault that I bought the wrong size. The thing is the last time I sold a pair of heels that were to small me I lost about £20 on them so I thought I try to return this pair to the seller. Good job I did try return this pair to the seller as had I sold them on Ebay I think there would be chance me having to refund my buyer since the heels are faulty. I have also had to return 2 pairs that were faulty. One had a strap missing across the foot. I could tell the was a meant to be a strap there as I see on the shoe where strap had been cut off. The other heels made a clicking noise when I walked. Both times got a refund with out to many problems from the seller.
  20. Went onto the community pages on Ebay last month. It seems that private sellers can refuse returns on items that are wrong size. I wanted to see if I could appeal. I could of done had I known how to do it, I was out of time by the time I found the right page on Ebay. So If you do need to return an item that is wrong size go "for significantly not as described" and not for wrong size or item does not fit. Any way have bought 2 more pairs from Ebay.One from Asos and New look. Both fit well and are comfortable.
  21. Looks like a good pair of heels.
  22. Is that a lamp and you can't wear them.
  23. The platform is 1 3/4 " and the heels is 5 1/2" which makes the lift 3 3/4" The heels just don't look right for the shoe. Not sure why I bought these now, must of liked the look of them. I did have problems walking in them. Just from walking around the room for a few minutes almost tripped over a couple times. I don't have problem walking in high heels, even when trying on new heels. Didn't think much about this at the time but this could due to the heels being to short. Was going to resell them on Ebay but not going to now. Looks like I,m going have to bin them, but at least I have my refund. Seems pointless for Ebay to issue a no fault refund. Could of just got me to return the heels back to the seller. with me paying the ruturn postage. Would of been fine with that and I would not left a negitive.
  24. Think I have some good news. Thought I try my bank and see if I could get a refund that way. After making 2 phones calls there is nothing showing up on my bank statement about this. Had to look up my paypal account and it seems I have been refunded. The payment has been reversed. Seems that I may have had a no fault refund. Just wish Ebay had told me this when they closed the case. The case notes says "case closed with no refund" but on my paypal account the payment has been reversed.
  25. Now that you mention the heel being cut down. If I tip the shoe forward so the heel is straight up there's a gap of an 1" but there is still a gap at the front of the shoe and the floor, which there should be. Added a photo to show this. These seem to be unworn as there is no wear on the red soles and so I don't think the heels have been cut down. This was a private seller, who was very unhelpful when I spoke to him. I,m not sure this case qualifies for "significantly not as described" or as "item does not fit" which I put in the options when I opened the case. I did also leave some comments about the straps. I can only open one case. Ebay don't look at these cases to start with it's all done by computer. I left the seller a Negitive with very low scores.
