Shows 690 for me too
Agreed McLain, these look good! Leather soles do look a lil weird to me though

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.
-
I don't think it's illegal, just extremely morally dubious.
-
Why is it either? They have to deal with tariffs right?
-
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
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Isn't Mr. porter based in London?
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Anybody abroad want 2 buy but turned down by the price let me know. If I mildly like u I'll be willing 2 order & ship 2 your door. I look @ it the same way it sometimes works with ordering from those stores with vat or from denimio or rakuten.
I think Mr porter is on some international sh1t, but don't get me to lying as all I've ever done is read some of the articles from their witty writers
Win some u lose some, part of the game (but there is always away 2 get goods for less than retail if u r determined that doesn't involve breaking laws or feelings)
