At last all my orders were delivered to the store and I am heading over the border to pick them up, try on and make my final selection tomorrow morning. I hope they have enough room in Customer service for my stuff because I have ordered 24 pairs of boots and shoes! I really hope I can select a few pairs than fit comfortable and suit my style from this mountain!
I promise to post everything I bring home.
Wish me luck!!!

Thanks!
Marley, I was so frustrated during pre-sale when there were 2 pairs in my size only - out of the whole sale - that I decided not to take any chances now. If I drive 2.5 h over the border I better get something to play with, right? Anyway, I ordered everything in my size and styles I wanted... I limit myself to 4 pairs only - as I returned 2 pairs last time and moved 2 pairs to the donation bin - I hope I can be strong...

Yep, Marianna, I am going to have a play day! I think I will ask my hubby to take a camera with him and snap some pictures of me in the sea of shoes!:-)
I only hope my credit card balance will not come out before I return all...

Have FUN!!! and remember to take your time. Try things on, go have lunch and see other things, go back and try on again. Feet are tricky

I'm looking forward to pics of the winners!

Marianna - wouldn't that be fun? to meet up at Nordies and help Sveta choose?

Yes! Take pictures! I'm jealous you're going to have so much play time in the shoe department. Did your credit card call you on your purchases? Good luck and have fun!

I'm so hoping that you see four killer pairs right off the bat that fit perfectly and the rest pale by comparison.

Sveta how do you get customs and duty charges refunded on returns?

Freckles, there is no duty charges when you buy in person and bring over the border, they charge you 13% tax only if you were out of country for less that 24h. However this time we claimed 400+ purchases for 2 of us and they did not send us to the customs at all. Maybe they have changed the rules...
I don't know what I am afraid of more: that nothing will fit at all or that everything will fit perfectly and I will have a hard time to select 4!

TWENTY-FOUR PAIRS OF BOOTS AND SHOES! My goodness, Sveta, I wish you loads of patience and fortitude as you navigate through those! I hope something comes of it.

Thanks Sveta. You never know with cutoms. One time I came back from NYC and went to the agent at the airport. He just smiled and asked me if I knew what I was allowed to bring back. No said I. He then winked, told me the exchange rate had changed so I was fine and tore up the form. I wasn't over enough to make it worth his while to fill out all the paperwork I guess.

Yes I can understand your concern. None or all...lol.

Marigold

Have fun!! It's going to be your own private shoe store at the Customer Service ;), they really should wait for you with coffee and a comfy chair (especially that you drive 2.5 hours!). Take pictures and take your time and I keep my fingers crossed you pick some winners there!

Marianna, I want to take pictures and I am ready for bed now!:-) I had a ball (and everybody in Customer Service had a free entertainment). I was pretty good and almost kept to my self-limit of 4 pairs - I got 5. That's it for now, I want to build a suspense!:-)

MNsara

Veteran

Good work! We'll be here tomorrow - in suspense

AJ

5 pairs...yipee! I will be sure to check-in tomorrow!

Good-night and sweet (shoe) dreams! : P

Oh, Sveta -- that's great. Good shoes are so hard to find, and I know it's been tricky for you to find the right size. Really looking forward to seeing your choices!
