euchrid Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Can anyone guess what is wrong with this eBay Sellers' item description? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/black-leather-ankle-wedge-boots-size-UK7-EUR-40-BNWB_W0QQitemZ200206478144QQihZ010QQcategoryZ63889QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Joking aside, some hunting around on eBay for mis-advertised items can score great dividends. I recently won a brand new £45 pair of KIT knee boots for £3 !!! Marvellous! The reason I got them so cheap was because the seller a) spelt Stiletto as 'Stilletto' didn't bother to fill out any of the Item Specifics drop-down boxes that meant the boots didn't appear in the majority of searches. Their errors = my gain Always High-Heel Responsibly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benno Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I know what you mean Euchrid. I bought the attached pink Louboutin shoes for £11 on ebay a couple of years ago. They were spelt something like Labotin. I gave them too my girlfriend on holiday in Greece as good shoes to mess about in. They got a little ruined on the rocky dirt tracks, but that was the whole point. We were trying to take photos to make her look like she was in a retro 80s cigarette advert. I have also bought some 5" Giuseppe Zanotti shoes brand new that RRP at $600 for £55. The best bargain has to be the black with pink snakeskin fan detail Gina stilettos that were advertised as 'Designer Shoes' with no gallery photo on ebay. They were £1.25 plus £3 P&P. Go and search.

raymond.nl Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 A-ha, that must be a latvian wedge! (as per the sellers country). :-) Off-topic: the Dutch for wedge heel translates back to sleigh heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben If there's a 'naughty corner' in your house, I hope you're sitting on it. Couldn't you have wrecked some Asda shoes instead? ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedesigner Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 a wedge is not a wedge when you've spent it.... (london joke) got the idea as well to look for mis-spellings, and to make sure my ebay listings are correct !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Girlfriend and I don't buy cheap shoes! If they had been nasty Adsa shoes I wouldn't have bought them in the 1st place. That was the whole point. Louboutins on a dirty rocky road.
