"2015-04-24T00:00:00"^^ . . . "Oh Maddy. Maddy Maddy Maddy. You fool. You ordered the wrong size. How does that happen? As a space cadet myself, I accept you as a unique individual, but get it together. Like...maybe don't tune in and drop out? Maybe like...Tune out and drop in? That's how it works right?\n\nOr perhaps Matty? (he pronounced it Maddy. I DUNNO)\n\nI have pined for Fluevogs for YEARS. Now I'm a grown up lady and have money to drop on shoes that are supposed to last a lifetime (yes, an update will be forthcoming down the road) But I really am hoping that the phrase \"You get what you pay for\" holds true for my Fluevogs, cause good lord did I Pay. I scoped out a pair of Sunny's online and ON SALE no less! A beautiful gothy pair of soft leather, strappy summer sandals to get my summer goth on in style. I felt uneasy about buying online, so off to the store I went. \n\nAnd there I met Maddy, bed-head blonde hair, sleepy eyes and a sleepier personality. But he tried his best, he really did. I brought up a picture of the sandals, he took a quick look, and brought up the wrong pair of shoes...and he knew he brought out the wrong pair, so he asked to see the web-page on my mobile again, where this time he paid attention to the name of the shoes and finally brought out the size I asked for. They fit like a glove, they didn't have them in black in my size, and after thinking about it for way too long, I decided, hey, lets order them from Calgary. I asked for a 9.5, and I assumed he brought out a 9.5. So I paid for a 9.5. I asked him about their exchange and return policy and he said \"well they're final sale so no returns.\" Okay fair enough. Play Ball. Then I asked \"okay, well, what if the ones I ordered don't fit?\" And then Maddy short-circuited and couldn't provide with me a straight answer, he just got an awkward look on his face and I was like \"Um okaaayyyyyy, forget it.\" That shit was already paid for and there was no turning back.\n\nSo I wait a few days and they arrive at the store. I come in to try them on. And the shoes are too small. Like, I got the hangy out toes and the heel of my foot is also hanging out.\n\nSo what the fuck Maddy? I asked for a 9.5, but you actually might have given me a 10.5. But hey, I should have checked. We just two lost souls. Living in a fish bowl. Year after year.\n\nAnd who knows Maddy, maybe there was some freak sizing discrepancy. So in conclusion.\n\nMaddy, I forgive you.\n\nThankfully, when I tried on my too small pair, another employee could see the issue and right away was like \"those are too small, let me see if I can find you a 10.5 in another store. By the grace of god there was a 10.5 in Calgary.\n\nAnd a week later I had my 10.5's THEY FIT YAY. And these shoes are comfortable as all hell. It's like walking on pillowey clouds in heaven.\n\nAlready planning my next Fluevog purchase."^^ . "1"^^ . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ . "1"^^ .
