Sorry, Im dim at fashion n that. Where are you getting them from and why would someone buy a pair on ebay and not in H&M?
I will get them from H&M
H&M will sell out very fast
and there are limited pairs


What time will you start queing?

Which store are you going to?
Sorry
I will be queueing at midnight at Trafford Centre in Manchester

The first 160 ppl will get the first opportunity to buy the shoes
The shoes will be limited so you can not buy multiple pairs of the same shoe
I will also have my girlfriend with me so I might be able to buy extra pairs if necessary.

The £179.99 knee high pair are not being sold in Trafford centre shop, only the one in town...

Sorry I just rang the trafford store to confirm that they will not be recieving the knee high boots. Which they are not. Even they told me last month that they will be getting everything

So I will be going to the one on market street which will have the whole range

i dont get this - why on earth would you queue up to buy a pair of shoes ? has the UK suddenly turned into kazahkstan on some other deprived eastern european country ?

there are loads of shops selling designer shoes, even up here in glasgow, where they can be bought without queing.

If jimmy choo are selling cheaper shoes through a chav central outlet, then surely the same shoes will not be sold through their regular channels ? this would totally wreck the exclusivity of the brand.

interestingly enough i just asked my other half, who is something of a expert on womens shoes (arent they all ?), and her opinion is that she would not wear 'cheap' JC's, for the reasons that everyone who knows anything would know what they are, and for the proposed 200 quid price tag, she could get a better pair of shoes, and better shopping experience in general than going to H&M.


I remember a few years ago a similar trick being tried by Patrick Cox, certainly in the male footwear range, and it was sold thru lower end retailers. I dont think it lasted very long.



FOR THAT REASON A'HM OUT Smiley

Well the average pair is 80 quid

This is an exclusive range to H&M
Jimmy choos are a a lot bigger brand and a lot more prestige than patrick cox

Make designer gear cheap and it becomes available to chavs.

Stick a chav in exclusive gear and all of  sudden the brand is cheapened and it loses it's niche appeal.

It's happened before. It will happen again.....

I cant beleive the short sightedness of this thread.

Ill have 10% Paul maybe more.

Would suggest trying to obtain seperate receipts though if possible so they can be listed on Ebay with their own individual H&M receipt.
