off topic: where to by shoes online from the US

g'day

my mates are going to the states. they said they would be happy to bring stuff back for me. i want some adidas shoes. i found them on adidas.com and they half priced compared to australia. i was wondering if there were other online resellers that were even cheaper and just as reliable.

i feel like a kid in a kandy store with an offer like that.

Is newegg the best place to get geek hardware. i like the prices and selection alot. unless there are better places. if u can recommend anywhere i would appreacite it

Thanks

Fuzi

zappos.com

Pretty good prices, but the customer service is amazing. Free shipping out to you, and if you need to return something for whatever reason, they will pay return shipping... and no restocking fees!

Ah, well that would make sense then. Hmm, notice you did mention this in your first post. Sorry I missed it.

Well, sometimes there prices suck but sometimes somethings good, this is one of the larger sport retailers :

www.footlocker.com (they have another store called like champsports or something).

Although, I wouldn't know because i'm from Canada, whenever I do go to America i get lucky in one of those sports stores wherever and get a pair of shoes for like 20 bucks lol.
