alphax Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Their website http://www.elite-heels.com is still working well, but nobody replies to my inquiries to their known email addresses elite@4ox.com and info@elite-heels.com Gina hasn’t logged in here since 2014, she hasn’t posted to her FB page since January 2020, and her own domain http://www.queen-of-heels.de is for sale. Has anyone ordered and received something from them very recently? Edit: Oh never mind, they seem to not be viable since 2012.

at9 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I've been to Antarctica (as has at least one other member of HHP) and didn't see any penguins in high heels. Not a single one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I almost took a 6 month assignment with NASA to Antarctica in the 70's. But maybe I'll take a cruise someday and wear heels on Antarctica then. Who knows?🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyheels Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 You could get away with wearing them on the ship, but making zodiac landings in heels would be rather risky. I doubt they’d let you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I have time to wait for a cruise ship with a copter, or hop aboard a freighter. Or join a scientific expedition. Who knows. Never say never. Never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we've had one of the wettest summers and the mosquito population has gone through the roof. As opposed to the previous two summers which had heatwaves and a sort of drought.

alphax Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 Nope, don't have the boots, and Elite Heels doesn't respond to my emails. I'm afraid it's a scam folks. I'm working with PayPal to recover my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at Apple which is only a shadow of what it used to be under Steve Jobs. In the end people make up a company. When good people leave and/or get replaced by lesser or god forbid incompetent people performance will go down. If more people leave or stop caring altogether a negative spiral may form that can see the company decline and even go bankrupt. Maybe the good people at Elite heels left and the ones currently with the company are just nowhere near as good, overworked, unqualified or just don't care? It may not be a conscious choice to suck, it could have just happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphax Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Well, at least I got my money back. Most of it anyway. Thanks to fluctuations in the exchange rate, I lost about USD$30 During the PayPal mandated communication period for the dispute, Elite Heels said they were in the hospital and couldn't ship the order until they got out, which was conveniently after PayPal's deadline to resolve the issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temp Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 i sent them an email regarding sizing on a particular pair im interested in http://www.elite-heels.com/shop/product_info.php?info=p315_Peep-Toe-Platform-Pumps-Carrie-Lachance.html . if i get a response i might try and order them, carrie lachance is my favorite shoe model , and she partnered with elite heels to design those.

Chorlini Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I agree, there's more red flags then a communist may day parade. Temp, I know you have a serious case of shoe lust because of the Carrie La Chance connection, but be careful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
