    :rotfl: Sorry no offence to anyone but these are clearly boots for children!! Clearly states girls and they look like a kiddies design. The buyer clearly hasn't sifted out girls shoes from her search options.

    I would have personally offered a refund (excluding p&p) as I don't want -tve feedback but pleased you sorted it Rince.

    I've just noticed your ark so may put a bid in myself - I am aware it's for a child and I won't be able to get on it...

    I'm a size 4½, I'd have bought them thinking they'd fit me. I didn't even know kids had a size 5 of their own. They look big enough for me.


    Seriously??

    But they look so teeny tiny, and I very much doubt they'd call adult boots "mince pie"!!

    And it does clearly say "girls" and not "womens".

    I looked in Clark's shop window yesterday and wish they would make the girl boots in woman sizes!! They're SO much more exciting that the grown up versions!

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    Had a look at the auction, they obviously look like childrens shoes, but I can understand how someone might make that mistake. I'd personally offer a refund and be sure to put the words 'childrens shoes' or "childrens size 5" in the listing.

    See she's re-listed them, need to report her for using your photo LOL x

    Funny thing is, altho she has listed them in the girls section, she doesn't make reference in the auction to girls/children's :confused:

    I know children's shoes go up to a size 13 then start again at 1, so presumably these very cute boots are for a very young child. My tall 6 year old granddaughter wears size 1, and when she gets up to a 5 (second time around IYSWIM) her shoes will then fit an adult.
