    UPSLynx as long as I can order shoes monday morning and still get them Tuesday afternoon for free shipping, I'm OK with this.

    ardichoke Is Zappos good on size-related returns? I've always been wary of ordering shoes from the internet since the sizes vary quite a bit... some brands I wear a 12... some a 12.5... a few I have to go up to 13 to be comfortable.

    Annes Zappos is great in all aspects of customer service. Give them a go, you will not be disappointed.

    UPSLynx seriously, just use Zappos.

    I wanted to buy a pair of Chuck Taylors for years but couldn't find them in my massive size anywhere. I knew I could get them online somewhere, but feared getting them shipped and them not fitting well/at all.

    Zappos has free shipping both ways, so if you get them and they don't fit, send them back. Done deal.

    ardichoke Awesome... I may have to acquire a new pair of sensible comfortable footwear and perhaps a sporty Fedora whilst I'm at it this weekend.

    NiGHTS They're an awesome company and I love them to death. It's an outstanding read if you ever way to dive into how they do things and what their philosophies are. Their reps will bend over backwards to make sure you're happy.

Howdy, Stranger!
