A bit of mud on the sole of a boot? They’re not claiming they are brand new.

Moglet4 · 14/11/2025 17:58

It’s a bit of mud- so?

ToKittyornottoKitty · 14/11/2025 17:59

I don’t understand the issue, the bottom of the used shoe is a bit dirty and they’ve clearly shown this so people can decide for themselves, that’s a good seller

Privateeyedriver · 14/11/2025 18:00

If it’s mud why wouldn’t you clean it? Looks like dog poo!

Well if it’s dog poo why wouldn’t you clean it?

Medexpert · 14/11/2025 18:02

Mud on just one shoe? It definitely look like something else! Either way, if I sell shoes who I listed as good, let alone excellent, I make sure I clean them before taking pictures!

Hufflemuff · 14/11/2025 18:06

They just dont care! She could have let it dry and banged them together. People are scruffy.

AlfieandAnnieRose · 14/11/2025 18:08

The seller is going to wonder why these shoes have so many views! 😄

Privateeyedriver · 14/11/2025 18:08

I’m wondering if it is poo and some weird kink. There’s 49 watchers. Very strange

True! 😆 either way you’d clean them surely!

You see I don't. I take pictures of them as is and list as being dirty and in need of cleaning. I've sold lots with no issues. The one time I did clean them is the one time I got a complaint about them being dirty - they weren't, they just weren't new.

GeorgeClooneyshouldhavemarriedme · 14/11/2025 18:11

That's definitely dog shit.

And why in the holy hell would you deliberately photograph that and then actively decide to post the photo?

JudgeBread · 14/11/2025 18:12

Mumsnet is fucking weird.

If you share a bath towel with your significant other or change your sheets less than once a week you're a disgusting grot, but selling shoes with a big fat dog shit on them is completely normal, makes you a good seller (???) and OP is being precious for being disgusted.

Maybe it widens your "target audience"?
You have buyers looking for a pair of boots and........ others with a more niche desire.

Privateeyedriver · 14/11/2025 18:15

Well they’ve sold now with 49 watchers. I’m convinced that was some weird kink listing. People are fucking strange.

Looks like dog chocolate to me. Some people are lazy. This situation is what old toothbrushes were invented for...

IlovePhilMitchell · 14/11/2025 18:20

Ewwww the people who think this is ok are scruffy and need to raise their standards.

The least you can do as a seller is clean your item or don’t bother!!!!!

Also to the person who said they’re not claiming to be selling them brand new…. all items sold should be at least clean whether brand new or not. Stained is different to dirty, items can be clean but stained.

I’ve seen kids wellies cakes in mud, eww!

Gowlett · 14/11/2025 18:23

Thought it was gonna be someone’s arse in a Sliderobe mirror…

passthebiscuittins · 14/11/2025 18:24

I’m with you OP. This is gross.

StewkeyBlue · 14/11/2025 18:29

Bleugh. Imagine packaging something up cakes in dog shit.

Or even her having those boots on her carpet.

Snowflakecentral · 14/11/2025 18:32

My first thought was dog shit tbh.

PrizedPickledPopcorn · 14/11/2025 18:33

I assumed she’d trodden on a toffee or chewing gum, and it wouldn’t come off. But maybe I’m naive

BigNov · 14/11/2025 18:33

Has it not occurred to you that the caked on mud/shit might be why they are selling?

Realrobin · 14/11/2025 18:35

That is seriously grim. Can't believe ppl thinking this is ok.

namechangetheworld · 14/11/2025 18:40

I'm not precious in the slightest but this would put me off. If someone can't be arsed to spend 30 seconds running a baby wipe over the sole of a shoe then god knows what state they would actually turn up in. Posting clean items is the absolute bare minimum.

And yes, that's clearly dog shit. Repulsive.
