    Well after much oohing and arrrrrrrrin av ordered some short black ones.

    I am a size 8 so av order the 10's!!!

    Has anyone been clobbered for customs yet????

    I ordered mine from Australia Direct. Does their offer of paying for tax and duty then cover the customs charges???

    Thanks,
    Ettx
  • I ordered a pair of Long Boho patchwork uggs and a pair of fur lined crocs from Taylor Shoes , yesterday I got a customs bill for £21. Have rung up and paid and my package will be here Monday morning!! I dont think thats too bad as someone had mentioned me about a £100 customs bill,
    Just cant wait to get my package on Monday now
  • Hi thats great news, have you checked your card statement yet? If so was there a charge for using Card abroad?
  • i just bought a pair of UGG's from Michigan. I was on holiday over there and couldn't believe that they were $130...... so i bought a pair. I'm a size 8 but they are a very generous size so i had the 7's which is a W9

    Hi, my feet are quite wide so I think the 10's should be ok????

    Spose there's always ebay if they aint rite!!

    Just couldn't help myself!!!
  • N i'm sure you get charged for using your card over there. Its a currency convert so some banks do charge.

    I had one of those post office holiday cards loaded with dollars so i only paid the amount. And yes its a bummer when u get charged by customs. I got stung last xmas when i bought a pair of boots for my partner. They were coming from the states and got charged £25 for the privilage.... not chuffed.
  • Having said that, I went to NYC in May and purchased loads of stuff inc changing my flight and used my Halifax 1 CC. I was not charged a penny more..In actual fact when calculating the conversion $1.90 to the £1.00 it worked out even cheaper than anticipated.
