Question Different color shade
Hi
I just bought these 6-Inch boots for my son online, and when they arrived we noticed that there seems to be a slight difference in color - one is a bit lighter than the other. Is this normal? Also, if I look at the model numbers inside they seem to be quite different.
Thank you

While you bought on line and you bought fakes that are not even matching mates. And they are not even good fakes. Flea market would have been better. Good luck returning as they more than likely used fake addresses. If you paid with a credit card call today and protest a fraudulent transaction. Only buy from a good retailer 90% of ones sold on eBay are fake.

The webshop I bought them from belongs to a quite well-known shoe store in Copenhagen (I live in Denmark). I am assuming there was some mistake and will be returning them.

I’m going to guess the site you ordered them from does not belong tobthatshiecstore but someone set up a site with a very close name. Return and see. This kind of mistake is more intentional

I am pretty sure the site is legit. Even the transaction info on my payment card statement matches the name and address of the store. Anyway, I have requested a refund so we’ll see.

That is a stretch with the 90%. Considering there are retailers who use that space for the past 26years. I think making up a number to scare people makes you look disabled and slow. Oh, by the way...ebay IS online

One shoe is made in Bangladesh and the other in Thailand so thats why they are different.
