jay_nyca1 Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 I was wondering, where do most find their high heels? Do some go and buy them new from stores or on line or from thrift shops and consignment stores?. . . . . jay_nyca1
ShockQueen Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 I wasn't quite sure which one to vote for, but I usually buy mine new in stores, or new online...that way I get to do the initial breaking in, and they fit much better afterwards :-) SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
jay_nyca1 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Posted August 10, 2006 ShockQueen, Nice answers, I can't fault you on that! You can't beat the feeling of being the "first" to try on and buy a new pair of heels!. . . .Nothing beats that new leather smell!. . . . jay_nyca1
chris100575 Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 I prefer to buy new, but have had a couple of pairs second hand. I usually only buy second hand if it's either a real bargain or something hard to find. Chris
Dawn HH Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 I generally buy my shoes and boots new from stores or through catalogs. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

Adeana Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I have a few shopping strategies for heels 4" and higher that are name brand. Aldo and Fredrick's have outlets at 2 of the Pittsburgh malls. Usually something fun on sale at either. DSW has a lot of heels and often carries really great heels at a great price. Marshalls and TJMax have designer shoes at about 1/5 the cost. Sometimes they get in horrbile heels. Sometimes they have an amazing selection of name brand heels for a greta price. That is where I get my Steve Maddens and Chinese Laundry. Does anyone ever Email anymore? Send me one! I like to chat!
Fog Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Buy new in shops - mainly in the sales. It's the fun of trying them on. Sometimes in street markets, that's getting less and less. I often buy clothes in markets though.
sscotty727 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I find alot of nice heels on Ebay. I normally only buy new unless it has been only slightly worn and a hard to find style I really like. If it is available new, then I buy it new. Scotty
Danielinheels Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 I go into the store and try on my shoes. When I can't do that, or if I find something online that I like enough, I'll order online. I buy only new online. In person I'll accept a used pair because I can examine the extent of the wear. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde

Elegant Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Whoa, your closet is impressive. Imelda Marcos would be envious of them. What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender!

sexishoe Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 mostly from ebay, new used or new old stock. US SZ 11 vintage style heels in real leather are hard to find. Best retail source for me is the lola model from classicpumps.com. I have umteen pairs of them and they are to die for! where do you live???
Firefox Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Impressive! I just go into a store and buy mine, usually at the sales. I'm either size 40 or 41 so I can generally find some that will fit.
