1) depends where you are from and what Santoni line. If you are from Europe, Santoni has many more styles available to that market, so it is less likely that you won't see these again at even greater discount. Also depends what line - FAMs or Limited Editions are only worth that amount. But even for the FAM line, 550 seems doesn't seem that much of a discount. If it is orange sock, it is too much. you have a model name?

2) no clue

Santoni is not a brand that is widely available in London,

I only know two stockists: Kurt Geiger in Harrods (come to think of it, I cannot recall Santoni this spring in Harrods, it is possible they have stopped stocking it) and Alfred Dunhill in their flagship store in Bourdon House, Davies Street, Mayfair.

Most sales have ended by now, although there are some stores still dragging on with their sales.
