My first shoes bought online

Poking around Zappos, of which I’ve heard so many good things over the years, I found a pair of shoes I really liked. Too bad they don’t ship abroad. So I bought the same pair from Shoebuy.com. While Shoebuy is definitely no Zappos (which could also be improved, according to some), all in all, it seemed to work. The site doesn’t look like much, and most annoyingly, they don’t have a “Your account” link anywhere that I can find, but the shoe size voting inspired enough confidence in me to take the plunge.

Shipping isn’t free, of course, but assuming that the shoes will fit (so I don’t have to return them), that expense wasn’t too bad.

Online shopping is a totally new game when living in the UK. (Free shipping for over £5 orders from Amazon.co.uk!)
