Where's the Best Place in AUS to buy shoes!!!!

Postby NBA2k9inch on Mon Feb 08, 2010 1:59 pm

Anyone know any websites or contact details of where you can get a large range of kicks to buy in Australia.
They have limited choices in footlooker etc and they cost a fortune too.
Seriously if you go the nike us shop, see what they cost in the us, It's nearly twice that and more to get the same shoe here is oz. Plus they get the Nike ID colourway choice too.
It's probably worth finding someone in the us to ship them too and have them post it to Australia, and even with the currency conversion and freight it still works out cheaper.

I use Oddball but that's because I'm a size 18. Eastbay ships to Australia I think and they've got everything; http://www.eastbay.com/

Go with Eastbay. I have not found anywhere that sells anything without ripping you off like there's no tommorrow.

Yep, I just did an Eastbay order a few weeks back. Got 2 pairs of shoes, a couple of t-shirts & four items of clothing for my Mrs for about $170 including international postage & courier.

I tend to just go with the specials, as I don't have to wear Kobe's or Lebron's or whatever (N)

Eastbay it is then.!!! Guys thanks heaps.
I think i read somewhere if you keep the total value under $250 Aus you don't get slapped with 10% customs tax when bringing it into the country.

I think it might be more than that, I spent like $400 at DrJays.com once and got no customs tax but I'd research it to be sure.

I believe it's total value of $1,000 as I looked into it in the past. Although probably best to be conservative as if you buy stuff on special for $800 the value might actually be considered higher than $1,000.

Btw, international postage cost about US$30 & I got within a week or so.

Eastbay is a good site when it comes to shoes. Its cheaper when it comes to shoes like the Lebron VII's by a fair bit.
