After so long waiting, I finally got my caged heels!!!
I have laid my eyes on this craze for a long time now, since its debut on The Kooky Thing. But I never bought them because of their steep price, at RM60 per pair.
These caged heels sold out almost instantly and I thought that was the end of it.
Then, I came across a girl re-selling the exact same caged heels from The Kooky Thing. I found her ad via Shopping Gazebo, a blog dedicated for people wanting to re-sell items they have already bought from online blogshops but never worn.
What I like about Shopping Gazebo is that the items are usually sold slightly cheaper than their original price, and although the policy is that the items are brand-new and never worn, it is hard to guarantee that.
Anyway, I am glad that the girl, CJ, was re-selling these caged heels she originally bought from The Kooky Thing. After negotiating the price to RM45 plus postage, then came the long delay.
*Sigh* I guess this is what happens when you deal with someone that does not own a blogshop. It takes her so long time to reply my emails and smses, giving lots of excuses – exams, handphone spoilt, etc. I did not know why I still entertain her honestly, because I thought she lack professionalism in selling the shoes to me.
Finally, after being really upset with her taking such a long time to reply me, up to a point when I did not want the shoes anymore, I told her that I won’t bank in the money until she deliver the shoes for me. I thought it was the right thing to do, because I did not want to have to wait 3 months to get my shoes just because she has such a busy social life.
Luckily, that got her worried, I guess. So to keep long story short, I agreed to bank in deposit of RM23 to her first and pay the rest when the shoes came.
Again, Pos Laju came when I wasn’t at home. Spend long time calling the hotline in order to get a re-send. Thank goodness my roommate was at home when the second time around.
I am so happy with this purchase. I simply love this caged heels style, albeit the heels are kinda high for me.
*Loves* I dunno when am I going to wear them but I just had to buy it. Sigh, such a shopaholic me…

Guess what finally arrive in my mail?
