    Arrrrgh! Bloody postal service/Parcelforce!

    My parcel left US on 29th Aug & only today says it reached the International Hub and hasn't moved! It really landed here on the 30th but they obviously lost it between the plane & the Hub. Also my parcel was dispatched from International Hub towards National Hub in an hour during the evening last time and yet has sat doing nothing all afternoon today this time!

    I want my Mammoths tomorrow!

    (Throws a tantrum like a 2 yr old!)


    I spoke too soon - they are now at my local depot ready for delivery today! Yeay!!


    Hi. Did you order your usual shoe size??

    I'm a size 5 and have ordered a pair of mammoths in a size 5. From reading the web, I'm gathering I should've ordered a bigger size??

    I have the follwing crocs for me;

    Caymans - gold, purple, navy, army green
    Aspens - red, khaki, blue
    professionsls - black
    sassaris - black
    mary janes - coral

    My son has;

    croclings - blue (and green for next year - too big)
    caymans - navy (arrived today see below)

    My hubby now has;

    caymans - black (today too)

    I usually order from mycrazyshoes.com or more recently from taylors in the us. My last lot of crocs from taylors arrived today. It was for 3 pairs and they cleared customs with no charges but took 4 days to get through!

    I ordered caymans for hubby and son and a pair of Alices for me. I did it with the fastest shipping and the total cost $133.97 which is about £66.42 including shipping - the price of 2 pairs here.

    The Alices are very narrow and have a slim sole and I have put them for sale on ebay as they are not my type of shoe but they are very very cute.

    Long live crocs.

    Blimey that is alot of Crocs. Good on you :D:D:D:D

    Hopefully they won't be £35 inc postage from Taylors. I've spent enough recently!

    Yeay!

    I've got Mammoths! The grape Mary Janes are the same beautiful colour as the Alices too so very chuffed! Argggh - have just noticed she's sent me size 7 Mary Janes not size 9s!

    Will post a pic when I get a chance.

    Where did you order your Mammoths - UK or US? If UK you've ordered the right size, if US the women's sizes are 2 sizes larger so I'm a UK 7, but a US Mens 7 Womens 9.

    I ordered them from Littlewoods (UK).

    Where have you ordered yours from?
  • Hi there. Those of you that have ordered from Taylors, does your bank/credit card company charge you extra for currency conversion? I assume your payment is in dollars?

    An Ebay seller in the US. (She marked them as a gift & I worked out the price would be more expensive at Taylors if my order with them got caught with customs charges so went ahead with her instead.)

    Spoke to her about the wrong MJs. She's posting the right ones today & paying my postage to send these back so all sorted.

    I have Egg. They don't charge an extra fee but I assume that their currency conversion makes them a profit. The price of shoes in the US & the UK are practically the same amounts at the moment so with $2 per £1 I'd rather pay a little extra on the currency conversion and buy the shoes half price!
