FS: Alden Ravello Plain Toe Bluchers 10D

Thread Starter 
I bought these 2 weeks ago at the NYC Alden store, but unfortunately they are a 1/2 size too big so I ordered a 9.5D making these redundant. They come with all the original boxes, packaging etc. They've been worn about 5 times and have some scuffs from daily wear, but nothing I would consider major. I haven't buffed or polished them since I've gotten them so the pictures are pretty representative of how they look. I paid $638 + taxes. I would like to get $SOLD for them (shipping included). I am also open to reasonable offers via PM. (price drop to $SOLD on 2/25)

These are very nice shoes.

However, you may want to consider dropping the price, considering that someone is selling more or less the exact same thing, NEW. For the same price:

Hate crap like this. Clearly the poster does not know much about Alden, or didn't read the other post thoroughly.

In regard to these ravello plain toes, absolutely gorgeous shoes. Ravello is my favorite shell color. I think this is a great price considering that in one day ALL Alden retailers have to increase the price of Aldens 5%. Brand new these will be about $700 after tax.

True. However thread shitting should be ok in cases like in the link he posted where someone is trying to get over on the SF community. That guy is abusing a good thing with the Alden seconds list. IMO mods should just Ban people for that shit.

Anyways, free bump for some awesome PTB! They are my size but I dont have the funds.

Price drop to $495! As pointed out, retail prices are supposed to increase shortly so I think these are a good deal + the colour is really gorgeous in person!

good deal, but barrier fits large, so this is 10.5 I guess?

I apologise for the 'thread shitting'. I wasn't aware of this matter of etiquette.

As somebody quite rightly pointed out, I don't know much about Alden and I didn't read the other thread correctly.

I wish you good luck in selling these and would have been buying them myself were it not for the fact that I have already spent far too much money on B&S this month (including a purchase from FStyles who pointed out my faux pas)

You're selling a used pair of shoes. They're "seconds" by definition.
