What are you talking about? Price is $690-$720

[Seul]

765-800 € equals to 955-998 $

d666: stop smoking.

[grandmasterben]

Shows 690 for me too

Agreed McLain, these look good! Leather soles do look a lil weird to me though

[davito]

Prices depend on shipping destination, see bottom of page

Interesting.  If you change your country, the price switches to the "correct" currency and boots that are $690 for Americans magically become £630 ($1002.84 at current exchange rates) boots for Brits.  And that doesn't even include the $55 delivery charge.

So…...won't be buying anything from that store.....ever.

[bagley920]

That sounds a little…..illegal

[Megatron1505]

I don't think it's illegal, just extremely morally dubious.

[mclaincausey]

Why is it either? They have to deal with tariffs right?

[Megatron1505]

As do all retailers, including the one I work with, but they/ we don't modify the price of goods depending on destination.

I don't mind them terribly, but I would prefer a subtle rubber sole on these.

This may simply be an artifact of NAFTA

[bagley920]

I've not seen an instance where the price changes like that before. And that much?

[mclaincausey]

Well, do you shop for a lot of other luxury goods made in Canada or Mexico? There may be a perfectly innocent explanation for this.

[Megatron1505]

You would hope that if it is perfectly innocent then perhaps there should be a basic explanation as to why international customers are having their prostate examined by the purchase price, doesn't seem to be one though.

[mclaincausey]

Yeah, true. Given the numbers they seem to be stocking they probably don't much care–they probably figure they'll sell out rapidly domestically.

[urbanwoodsman]

Isn't Mr. porter based in London?

[Megatron1505]

I don't know to be honest, but if so that's even worse and totally negates the NAFTA argument, and the international duties theory.

[mclaincausey]

Agreed–believe me, I was not excusing such a mindset.

Easy way to test would be ot see what happens with goods not manufactured in Canada but stocked at Mr. Porter.

[summ3rhays]

For UK prices include VAT and ship from the UK, but that can't honestly make up the difference right?  USD selected items are shipped from the US. I wonder if it's a typo on the USD side.
