Been looking at Uggs this morning and have come across an American website called David Z https://www.davidz.com/category.cfm/brand/UGG, which have some Uggs on sale starting from $60 (£37).

They have the classic shorts ($140) and talls ($180) which aren't on sale and are the standard price for Uggs from USA.

They can ship to the UK, but I don't know how much it costs as when I get to the checkout, it times out.

Email them and ask about shipping. Remember you have to pay customs on them. Probably not that much of a bargain after shipping and customs is added unfortunately. Customs on my short chestnuts was nearly £40:eek:

There's a website called Branch309 which seems cheap on Uggs, but they are not listed, as far as I can see, on the list of authorised dealers from Ugg Australia.

Anybody bought Uggs from them?

I would say steer clear .... reason being, there was a poster I was posting with on page 310 of this thread ... I quoted her to query them not being listed, and with her explaining about calling ugg to ask etc. etc....

anyway, her threads have now disappeared, and my thread was last edited by the MSE admin, so I'm guessing there's more to it.

from the research I did, they belong to a bigger group of companies that do sportswear / outdoorsie stuff, so my guess would be, if they did stock them, they've done a spot buy like M&M but I would be wary.

hope that makes sense - that's a lot of words and waffle there!

Thanks Mrs Hedgehog...it makes perfect sense, not waffle at all.

I actually emailed Branch309 to ask whether the Uggs they sell were the authentic Ugg Australia and got a reply back from the "Ebay Team" (??) saying I should ring Ugg Australia and ask them to add Branch 309 to their approved retailer list.

You wouldn't, of course, need to do this if they WERE authorised retailers - they'd automatically be added. So it does seem like they would be fake Uggs, as it's the Ugg Australia brand we want.

Not worth saving a few quid to end up with fake Uggs that fall apart after a few wearings. It's usually obvious when someone's wearing the fakes. They sag over on the inside of the heel and just look a mess. Bad enough if you're buying them for yourself, but I get them for Christmas presents for my daughter and daughter-in-law, and if they were fakes you'd never hear the last of it!!!

Funny the thread's disappeared though, isn't it?

Thanks again.

I don't think Branch309 sell fakes. They are listed as Ugg stockists by alltheshoes.co.uk who have been running price comparisons (albeit rather slowly updated!) for Ugg and other brands for years now.

Hi all,

are uggs any cheaper in America? Hoping to get some for my better half and we are there for her birthday and can't work out whether to wait or not? Also would we have to pay duty on them on the way back?

If they are cheaper, does anyone know anywhere good to buy them in las Vegas?

Thanks all,

matt

It's just that Ugg Australia don't list them as an authorised retailer, and their response to my email seemed odd to say the least. Also they seem that bit too cheap....

Hi, yes def cheaper in America - even with the dollar the way it is they still work out cheaper. I've never been to Vegas so not sure where to get them but check out the websites of the big department stores over there to see where they are and how much their Uggs are. I would just pack them in my case in order to avoid customs charges at the airport!!
Hope this helps and enjoy Vegas!!

Basically uggs will be the same price in dollars as they are in pounds here (ie tall uggs will be £169 here or $169 in the US). In Vegas i always go to Nordstrom in Fashion Show Mall on the north end of the strip. Have a look at their website to get an idea of what they stock, if you go early on your trip and they don't have what you want they can get them ordered in for you:
