FS: NIB Borrelli (Sutor Mantellassi?) black cap-toe balmorals, sz 42(US 9D)

I bought these about a week ago on impulse, but I'm planning to return them. They're great & classic & fit my 9D foot perfectly, but my workplace is insufficiently corporate to necessitate a third pair of black captoe bals (and my salary is likewise insufficiently corporate to afford redundant Borrellis). The sole measures 12" long and 4" across at the widest. There's minor shopwear on the soles (this was the last pair in the store, I believe they were the display model) and I've worn them around my fully carpeted apt for 30 minutes or an hour. MSRP is $675, I paid $315 after sales tax, so I'm looking for $335 shipped conUS to cover shipping and paypal's cut. Box & bags included.

Nice, classic captoes. If they were 43, I'd buy them.

F'ing a - I need to buy a gift for my dad - he requested size 12D black shoes; these would have been perfect. Someone pick them up.

Yeah, my girlfriend's always giving me owl stuff; it's a librarian thing.

Are these Sutor? Why is the retail so low?

Dunno if these are Sutor or a Santoni-made pair that was lingering in the stockroom for some time (as I believe Santoni made Borrelli's footwear pre-Sutor...?).

Also, the pricetag could conceivably already reflect a previous markdown, so that may not be the proper "MSRP"

Nice deal. I am in a very circs. and don't need a third pair of black shoes, but this is a good deal for someone who needs a basic.

These'll be going back tomorrow if nobody want them.

I know you're not supposed to bump without a pricedrop, but since I'm just offering these profit-free as a service to anyone who needs a high-quality staple shoe, I really don't have any room to lower the price. If anyone is bothered by my bumping, feel free to report me to the mods for spamming.
