    They will be Crocs as you bought them from JellyEgg. They are now made in factories in China, Mexico, Romania, Canada and USA, just a few off the top of my head.

    The ones from China tend to be slightly smaller than others.

    £17.62 for customs and Parcelforce handling :mad: :mad: The parcelforce charge doubles the VAT :mad: :mad: but at least they will be here for my hols!

    Thats not good :(

    I had a confirmation e-mail from Taylors to say my package had been shipped on the 5th July.
    When I used the tracking, all I keep getting is my crocs have left Chicago (O'Hare) airport on the 7th July and that's it.
    As it is now the 11th of July is this a bad sign that my crocs may be held up in customs ? :confused:
    Can someone put me out of my misery please cos I really want my crocs...:cry:
    Many thanks.

    Amazon have the Holeys (Croc lookalikes) on offer again, reduced from £24.99 to £19.49. I think they may be slightly narrower than the real thing.
    "Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.

    My DD1 has a pair of holey soles they are not lasting well as DD2s crocs both bought on same day. Personally wouldn't get holeys again.

    Children's garden cloggs in Aldi newsletter http://uk.aldi.com/index.html

    and lots of lovely Jibbitz on the official website, I've emailed them about UK delivery once I spotted the Scotland flag ones as I haven't been able to find them on a UK website that actually have them in stock.

    http://www2.jibbitz.com/store/Countries_52/

    Spoke to a friend who lives in US and is visiting here in August about sending the Jibbitz to his address which is fine. I then went shopping for several Scotland flag Jibbitz and an assortment of others and the shipping showed as $3. I then went to register so I could place my order and it changed my shipping to $8. However as this is for quite a few its certainly a far better price than buying from say Ebay to get the Jibbitz I want so I'll probably just put my order in and have them sent to me direct.

    I'm wearing my Black n White Sassaris at last!!! They are sooooooo comfy! not sure about the Athens as the 'Pearl' is more of a washed out knicker grey :rotfl: but we'll see. Got OH's Sobecks too which look nice and some butter to get my black caymans looking good again!

    long live Crocs!

    Call yourself and money saver and you bought the butter :eek: :rotfl:

    Apparently Woolies sell a natural colour polish stuff for £1.50 that does the same job or do like I do and put them in the washing machine and they come out like new :j

    Glad you like your Sassaris, I still haven't worn mine as its taken ages for my feet to sort themselves out from flying :o

    I bought the butter 'cause my black caymans don't come up like new whatever I've done to them, they always look washed out and grey. I can always sell it on eBay for three times the price I bought it for anyway!
