Topshop #3

[ChrissyM]

how much do those glitter boots go for out of curiosity?

80 pounds; 129 usd although I think for Americans, it's much more expensive for you because I noticed when I was in NY the prices at topshop were jacked up way more even after foreign exchange. So my guess is around 160 ordering from the American site or buying in store.

I think i'm just going to have to purchase those boots. My local ts are supposed to be getting some in by Thursday .

thanks... i'm sure they're definitely more expensive than what they convert to...

i remember being shocked at the prices in the nyc store as well
everything seemed stupidly expensive.

*edit* Do not solicit sales on TFS.
ugh. Stupid me, should've gotten them when I saw them in the online store.

MissyG, I am wondering this as well. I can't believe some people are asking like 300 bucks for them! Crazy.

IKR! Might as well buy the real one. But I actually prefer the ones from Topshop.. If you wanna make a profit that's fine (though I generally can't stand the ones who buy multiples of an item to sell them for a profit on ebay). But going as far as 200 even 300 pounds for something that was 70 pounds?! That's ridiculous. I wish Topshop would restock them.

How far back did they come out?

 

[emailme.]

at that price might as well save up for the real thing.

ridiculous.

How far back did they come out?

They were from last fall/winter. Last pair sold out a few months ago.

they were $160 (US dollars) for me. i used the student promo code 09689386509385584938 so it ended up being only $144 with free shipping. save up for the real thing? funny thing is, the real giuseppe's are on sale for $400 at neiman and the only remaining size is 35 (my size, of course, wtf...). it's been taunting me since january but i'd rather spend that extra $200 or so dollars on a tufted headboard for my bed. i understand saving up for something like a purse instead of buying a knock-off but shoes that are going to be touching the GROUND, especially in dirty jersey/nyc... NO THANKS! the topshop ones are a great deal, in my opinion, as long as the glitter doesn't start falling off.

i also happen to remember topshop jacking up the pricing on a certain popular winter coat last year after it had gained popularity (i believe the price doubled), so ladies, don't even THINK about it- get it while the boots are under $200!

^They aren't available online though are they?

It's too bad Topshop removed the option of turning the shoes 360 degrees. I always want to see my shoes exactly at its side profile. Especially when it comes to high heels.

 

[foreverandnone]

No they aren't on the UK or US site anymore. I emailed about restock but no response yet :\

If you are interested ASOS also did a IM style boot -

is asos online-only?

 

[foreverandnone]

yes, they have no outlets.

I might be wrong but I think Topshop will probably restock them again. I am looking forward to the silver colour ones and I expect they will sell out just as quickly

 

[foreverandnone]

still no response from them about restock! 24 hours my a ess ess

i have a feeling they'll restock. i haven't seen the silver glitter ones yet so at least those who missed out on the black ones will have those to look forward to...

do you guys remember the leather shearling jacket (burberry-like) last winter, though? i remember the frenzy over that piece and after they restocked they also decided to up the price.

i would just keep checking the site everyday... good luck!

Classic law of supply and demand right there. As demand increases so does $$$$$

Well they were 80 pounds before so how much would they up them? 10 pounds?
