@Rufian The Woodlore site has the option to custom engrave initials on a metal plate. Oftentimes I take the plates off (especially if they say Jos A Bank). You can add little screw-in brass knobs yourself too.

Thanks for the link by the way, I may pick up a few from Lord & Taylor.

Yes, they're Woodlore, cause they came in woodlore box. I just didn't know what the plate said, but it says lord taylor in writing style. I'd rather have the woodlore plate. This is the cheapest way to get woodlore shoe trees I guess if you have shoprunner. I got them for $13. The woodlore site never has free shipping.
I'm sort of OCD with trees. AE all have Woodlore, Alden has Alden, Grant Stone have Grant Stone. I don't know why, but it makes me happy. And they are all stored in their respective branded bags, on the shelves, grouped by manufacturer and then style of shoe or boot.

Here is a good deal on shoe trees, Jos Bank, if you add two to the cart, you get two pairs for $20. Quality probably not as good as woodlore though. I'd rather have the woodlore, which can get them for $13


Where can I get custom brass plates that don't involve buying shoe trees. Buying from woodlore.com is not the most affordable way to do it.

Woodlore makes a lot of shoetree styles for all kind of customers. If you buy from the Woodlore site, you can get custom made plates with your initials. But you are not going to pay $13.

Assuming they came with two bags... ?

Recently shipped my HM's back to AE and was relieved to find two bags in the original shoebox to send with (I store boots on a shelf).

Maybe receiving will get a kick out of the diaper box I sent them in... we've got an infant in the house.
I am laughing very hard at this.
I hope they get a laugh, too.

Those of you who have sold shoes on eBay, what’s your preferred shipping method? Where do you find boxes that will fit the show box inside?

others have answered, but I have rarely seen buyers wish to have the original box. Omitting it will allow you to use the USPS box and save a few dollars.
