@Gdog2015  I also wear a size 11M.  I've had tremendous luck buying shoes at Zulily.  Out of the dozens that I've ordered, including boots, maybe 2 or 3 pairs haven't fit.  Although they say they don't take returns, they want to keep good customers happy, so they've agreed to take them back.  I've discovered some brands I'd never tried before.  I bought discounted Alegrias there before QVC ever heard of them.

Thank you! I completely forgot about them. That return policy must be new. I will have to look at it tomorrow. Thanks again

I think some customers forget to factor in the shipping and return costs when they purchase. You really do take your chances on clothes and shoes fitting. It seems to me that shoes vary more than anything else, so they are a big risk. Some buy where it is convenient and some make the effort to shop around. My choices used to be limited as to stores available in my area, but more choices are out there now. I make sure I look at the shipping before it hit submit and sometimes just decide that the item is not worth the return cost potential.

I googled a pair of booties that were on the Clarks show this evening that are the one day only price.

 

Amazon has them for $97, no shipping, versus $115 plus shipping & NY tax on top.  And I can put them on my wish list.  Don't have to impulse buy them today for the "lower" price.

 

I did buy Clarks Leather Water Resistant Lace-up Boots - Mazlyn Arctic - A270737

Price is lower than elsewhere & $5 shipping is fine.

I saw a pair of Earth boots under new arrivals that I really like.  The shipping was $11.22.  I went directly to Earthbrand's website and purchased them with free shipping & returns and no sales tax!! I saved alot of money by not ordering with QVC.  Oh and did I mention 90 days return policy?

I returned a pair of boots to Vin ce Camuto on my own.$30 from UPS!  I almost fainted.  I did say that is ridiculous and went across the street to the post office and got them back

to VC for a mear $17 and change.  If you are buying boots online definitly buy where you get tree ship both ways.  I will never make that mistake again.

the consumer getst the short end of the stick for sure!
