Please don't call out my hall monitors, btw. If he is flagging your posts needlessly, you can complain to me.

And fwiw, I agree with him, at least in part. I think that you should return the items. However, I would definitely not do it at my own expense, and definitely not without either an immediate refund or an immediate exchange that takes place before you ship out.
Many thanks, LA GUY for the additional information.

Just so it's clear, as I posted earlier, I'm happy to send the items back, as I expressed in an earlier post.

And, while I do not wish to upset an Admin, I was hardly "calling out" a hall monitor. Repeatedly calling someone a "moron" is, sorta by definition, jerk behavior.

I was simply qualifying it as such... ;-)

Jesus Christ whatever happened to just doing the right thing and returning something that doesn't belong to you?

wow really? I never bought anything from that collab but the photos looked pretty good. lol you didn't buy them to have to find this out did you? I remember them being expensive as ****


Thankfully no, I saw them in store at J+O, studied them for a few minutes, walked away very saddened and confused.

**** why does LN-CC have to gradually mark down their items? The shoes I bought were then marked down another 100 pounds a couple of hours after i checked out


Ask for price adjustment asap.


Sorry to derail the thread, but do you happen to know if this pair had those same issues? I'm considering buying them. 


Yes, those are the same, there were lace ups, those short boots and some taller boots in the collar all in black and that brown.

I would send it back, but having to a) wait to be reimbursed for the return shipping and b) deal with sending an international package would permanently sour me on the retailer.

Yeah that's the thing, I know what I have to do its just a little annoying. And I know that for dot-mi, it was just an honest mistake but they probably can't do anything in the form of compensation except getting the correct item to me ASAP (although that may be 2-3 weeks in this case). I would expect more from somewhere like mporter, but a small boutique like dot-mi probably can't afford much more than an apology.

It was depressing though when I opened up my package to see a horribly ugly sweater inside instead of my sns melange fisherman lol.

This thread is starting to suck. Roden Gray is dropping prices, and common projects are discounted more. use getgray for an extra 10%.

Honestly, in terms of negative publicity vs. positive publicity, it's completely worth it to eat a hundred bucks of shipping, especially in the day of the internet. And you can get a package from Italy in under a week, easily, and not even using the most expensive options. Fedex International Economy will easily do it. I am wearing a Barena sweater/jacket I got from Farfetch that I ordered last Tuesday. It got here this Tuesday.

It's probably because they sold it in store before your order made it to the shipping step.

sale launch was Sunday night so if you ordered then plenty of time for the order to sell out in stores. Their website is a joke though, I've never been over 50% for items ordered
