The problem with stock at the e-stores is not going to improve since C&J is several thousands pairs of shoes behind in manufacturing and the orders keep coming in. C&J limited the amount of shoes e-stores can order every month due to the high demand because they want to have full stock in the own stores. Someone wrote in this thread a couple of days ago that Pediwear has a full waitinglist until june and this is not the list for delivery, this is the waiting list for your turn to PLACE a order. After that day it will take 8-10 weeks before Pediwear has your shoe and then you have shipping on top of that. So the choice right now is to buy directly from a C&J store (in UK or US) or wait until october/november to have the shoes for a few bucks less. Then one can always be lucky to find the shoe at a smaller e-store or a used one....
Sky Valet is a first class brick and mortar authorized dealer, not an e-store or discounter. They happen to take orders over the phone and internet as well, but they have a store in Georgetown in DC with C&J, EG, Loake, Alden, as well as a few Italian makers. They charge full list price for shoes, but sometimes do an in store discount on everything but Green. I think they only do Green MTO in store now. It's not on the website anymore.
While they may have limited stock in certain sizes, that's the nature of having a stockroom. You have what you haven't sold. It's not an unlimited amount of each size.
