Uggs!!

16 replies

bignose · 12/11/2008 12:58

Just recieved a pair off uggs from www.uggstore.com
They claim that they have re-inforced heels and all sorts.They are rubbish.They cost me £60 not inc shipping cost and they look like the cheap ones from tesco!
Im so upset and now have to fork out for the shipping cost to send them back to australia.Does anyone know how much this will cost?

Yes, these aren't the 'real' ones. The real ones are made in China by Deckers (I have 4 pairs ) I would estimate it would be roughly £20 ish to send them back. You can get the proper ones on Ebay.com for around £100-£120 but you need to shop carefully. HTH

agree -real ones last for ages.. fake ones don't ..and of your 4 pairs suwoo

If you want the real ones then don't shop on ebay for them. My friend paid £120 for some and they were fake . Luckily she was able to return them but it's not worth taking the risk to save £30 or so. Btw, they were bought from a power seller with 100% feedback so hundreds of people have paid the cash and have no idea that they're wearing fakes.

The ones I got dont claim to be made by deckers so I knew they werent UggAustralia uggs(made in China)but I thought they would be ok.
Ugg is ther name of the boot so even the boots in tesco are ugg boots but it depends on who makes them.
I purchased a paur last yr from ebay but they were too small so I sold them in my local paper for the same money as I paid.I took a look at ebays notes on "how to spot fake uggs" so I now realise that ones I purchased last yr were fake.UggAustralia (made by Deckers) never dcome up too small.
At lease if these ones Iv got now were fake I could at least sell them like I sold them last yr but these defo are not going to sell like them.They r so cheap looking.

I didn't say I bought mine from Ebay- was just trying to help you out if you wanted to save a couple of quid. I did say shop carefully, you need to read the notes as you have done about how to spot a fake pair.

suwoo · 12/11/2008 14:24

OK you're forgiven

bignose · 12/11/2008 14:25

I posted a thread about uggstore last week bignose, and the concensus was, their uggs were fake

I got mine from here about 2 yrs ago but sadly they dont deliver to the UK anymore, but, you will be able to see what from this site what real uggs look like, in order to compare

suwoo · 12/11/2008 14:32

They're the special edition metallic ones. They aren't available any more this is the only pic I can find- bloody Ebay.

suwoo · 12/11/2008 14:34

A lot of the big shops sell them. Where I live in Manchester, you can get them easily in town.
