Daughter has asked for some specific Nike trainers for her 16th birthday in a few weeks. They retailed for £99, but the only place i can find them is on resellers (scalpers!) sites - £150 - £200 + p&p + 'processing fees' - so almost double

Does your daughter realise that you would have to pay so much to get these? If not, now might be a good time to enlighten her. If she does, perhaps offering to pay the first (say) £100 and let her do the shopping around?Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!2 -
Does she know they are sold out from Nike? Is there a pair that are in stock she wants? Check Foot Locker too of course.
I don't trust the resellers personally so wouldn't go that way. Better to find a different pair in stock from a decent retailer.1
