These aren't really a deal, but they are HTF, so is it sacrilegious or something for me to think that the flowers should come off? The green is gorgeous and I like the matching heel and tip, there need to be more VPs like this!

I don't think it's sacrilegious, whatever you have to do to make your CLs work for you is exactly what you should do. And you're right, that color is GORGEOUS!

OUCH! Does that go both ways? If so, that may make my decision about the Swedish VPs...

LOL yeah... but the shoes look good and the title and sole both say CL so I'm guessing they'd be fine

Now if only I could shrink my feet, you and I could work out a shoe timeshare Blueberry!

No.

Only if you live in Sweden and buy shoes from a non EU country.

If you buy something from Sweden you pay the customs you usually pay when you buy something from outside the US.

How would I find out how much that would be? Sorry, new to this international buying thing - the things we do for CLs

I don´t know.

But I think there are many threads about this on tPF.

Custom fees to USA???

authenticplease · Nov 5th, 2009, 06:28 PM

Barlow-It depends on the carrier they are sent with.....I have only ever paid customs once(an Outnet UK purchase sent DHL). HTH!

Blueberry12 · Nov 5th, 2009, 06:41 PM

Ask the seller to send the shoes with normal Swedish post ( ask for tracked shipping of course).

It costs about $ 30.

I don´t think if she marks the shoes as used shoes you need to pay that much.

But I don´t know exactly.

But make sure she marks the shoes with her price, not the retail.

Thanks!
Checking out that thread now :)

Hmm... still can't find a straight answer on customs fees... and I even went to the us gov website...

Some people say free under $200, $400, $1000??

regeens · Nov 5th, 2009, 08:04 PM

Wowza! Thanks for posting the L'Wren flats authentic!

http://cgi.ebay.com/NIB-845-CHRISTIA...item20adf98107

I wonder if they do fit TTS though? She says 37.5 which fits TTS, but in her listing it also says size 7. Does anyone have these?

hya_been · Nov 5th, 2009, 08:48 PM

Regeens I'd guess that the fit is similar to the turban flats because they're a similar style, but unfortunately, I really have no idea.
