 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
A couple of years ago my wife bought some new boots - I wasn't part of this transaction I hasten to add. So we go away on hols and she finds she can't get them on as her calves are too big. Goodness knows how she got them on in the shop but she swears she did and they were comfy. Anyhow I try to persuade to take back to shop for exchange as she's only ever had them on in the shop (and maybe at home walking around). Anyway, to cut a long story short she didn't and they are still in the loft. They didn't fit last year (again) and probably never will. Is there much of a second-hand market for such boots ? They were pretty decent and cost ~ 170 GBP as far as I know. It seems silly to hang onto them despite my wife saying "but I like them".

Negligible value I would have though. She should take them to a decent bootfitter or the shop where she bought them from and try to get them to sort them out. might be cheaper just to start again

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

EB say they will always try to sort out problems even years after purchase. So must be worth a try going back. Second hand market on ebay might give you a 30 quid return.

If you return to EB they give you 75% of the value of the boots back (as long as you've used them for less than 2 weeks). Not sure what the top end time limit is on these...

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

if it is just round the calves then it should be fairly easy to have them adjustd, a bit of heat and some clever stretchingor moving of buckles should solve most calf issues pretty quickly
where are you, we may be able to suggest someoen who can do the work locally to you
