where do I recommend good service/value on this site

I am sure that there is an area, but can't seem to find it.
I feel I must recommend a New Zealand site (https://www.Kiwi-sheepskins.com) that my daughter has just received some sheepskin boots from. Ordered on the first of November, invoiced on the 2nd, and arrived on today the 9th November. The boots are really nice, and look like a very well known Ozzie brand, but half the price. They even answered emails on a Sunday. Total cost for pair of boots, pair of sheepskin insoles, pair of sheepskin slipper socks, cleaner & protection spray, and postage & packing for £98. Unbelievably good value. - and before anyone comments, I have no vested interest in this company - just think they deserve a recommendation:T :T

    I'm not sure but you could maybe post it on the "5 Star Service Board" under "Vent, Bent or Heaven Sent Thread"

  • I really like the look of these boots!!

    Can you please tell me, would they be subject to any customs charges as they aren't from the UK?

    Thanks in anticipation.

    Its because we pay import duty over a certain amount when we buy from a non EU country. The same as when you go on holiday to a non EU country. I tried looking up what the amounts were when Purplemoon commented, but can't find anything on the web. I suppose its pot luck!!!!!!, but more on our side than customs.
  • I am not a very lucky person by nature, so now I will have to sleep on it and way it all up in the morning.

    Still love the boots though............................

    Thanks for your reply, its appreciated.

    Do these have a sole suitable for going outside in? Not for walking around in but enough to go into the garden? Thanks.

    I don't know anything about the medical boots, but if you email them, they are really quick replying, and very helpful.
