If you mean parcel them back up, go queue in the post office for hours behind
some pensioners, hand over money for delivery then yes, its simples.
No, print a pre-paid label and drop it off in a couple of minutes at the
local One-Stop (or similar).
If by local one-stop
It's a popular chain of convenience stores M'Lud. Other brands are
available.
you mean the post office you still have to queue behind
said pensioners.
ITYF most don't need to go to the Post Office any more, one of the
reasons why branches are being closed. Having accompanied someone else
(not a pensioner) a few times to a Post Office recently, today was the
first time we found ourselves waiting behind an elderly person.
You can't just lob the parcel over the counter or dump it
in a sack and leg it. Or not in our one anyway.
plus not having the shoes to wear in the meantime.
Order them in plenty of time.
I don't think many people buy shoes or clothes because they're about to
run out.
So why wouldn't you have any shoes to wear?
Huh? The point you and others are missing is that with clothes, shoes and
a number of other products , eg cars, its a very VERY good idea to try before
you buy. Or risk serious disappointment.
You buy (hanks to the EU) in effect "on approval", and send things back
which don't fit.
Thats up to you. I only order online when I don't have a choice because shops
don't sell it - eg gym equipment. Otherwise going to a physical shop is a lot
simpler.
Physical shops have a very limited selection in my size.
Thats unfortunate, but you're clearly a special case. Most people can buy
shoes that fit in shops.
You'd think, wouldn't you, but I know several people (men and women)
with smaller feet, and it's a significant issue. I also really need a
half-size, which are even rarer.
