    You are confusing your dollars ;)

    The prices for the boots and shipping quoted on the website are in US dollars but obviously this is then converted to AU Dollars when payment is taken.

    When I bought mine last month I was charged 208.33 AU dollars, which was 87.28 GBP, so looks like the exchange rate is fluctuating slightly.

    I think you will find I am not confusing my US & Aussie dollars, I'm just switching back & forth quickly in my explaination of the costing breakdown.

    I work in finance:D

    I just checked banking online & I have been charged 207.86 Aussie dollars, (BUT I WAS QUOTED £185 IN US DOLLARS) which turned out to be £93.07 sterling. For the tall ones (I meant by putting the tall ones in here that I was buying the $150 pair) & the $35 shipping, So $185 as per website Is that right?

    That £93.07 works out (ON THEIR ONLINE EXCHANGE RATE LINK)$190.18 (in US DOLLARS AS PER QUOTE). I thought I was paying $185, perhaps the other $5.18 is the charge for exchange?.


    See easy when I explain what I meant
  • Was in House of Fraser today and they had some new sheepskin boots in by justsheepskin.com - similar to uggs but the great thing was that they did slippers! Will be putting them on my Xmas pressie list.
  • Ewww......ugg boots........they are so chav like and tacky......ewwwww......women with a nice figure and decent legs never ever wear ugg boots.....ewwwww.....eww...eww....I think Im going to vomit

    They aren't Chavish in the slighest, I doubt they'd even be able to afford them unless they got the very cheap knock offs :rolleyes:

    You'd love them if you tried them on ;)

    Hi all

    I ordered some uggs from Aussie direct on the 30th September. The money has gone out of my account but I haven't had any tracking info or dispatch email?? I went for the cheaper air mail shipping.

    Should I email aussie direct to see whats going on?

    Thanks

    Kel
  • Kel I ordered mine on the 1st October and they still hadn't been despatched as of yesterday because they were waiting for a delivery of stock. I was told mine would be here for Friday so yours will probably be the same.

    Kel, just to second what everyone else is saying...

    I ordered mine on the 2nd, and still haven't recieved my UPS number or any indication of despatch. It sounds like all of us who ordered thr end of Sept/start of Oct will experience slight delays... I think they have had wait for a delivery of stock, and hence dealing with back orders.

    However, I am starting to feel invisible as they never reply to my emails :( But I know they are very busy (and it is only a small company..)

    Part of the Furniture Name Dropper Combo Breaker Debt-free and Proud!
    has anybody ordered the Kids size 6US ? I just wondered what the difference is between the adult size 6US and the Kids size 6US :confused:
    I got a pair of size 7US for my size 5UK feet but they slip on my heel so perhaps should have gone down a size ( especially after reading this thread and somebody mentioned that the do 'give' after a while )
    The postage is cheaper for the kids sizes too

    thanks for reading xoopsx

    ignore the above - just noticed that they only have US size 1 in stock :(
