http://www.shoesnorthampton.co.uk/ Has anyone on this site purchased shoes from this store before? I'm looking to purchase a pair of C&J Lowndes from here, and wanted to know anything regarding the quality of service. Also, do they really offer free shipping to U.S.? Thanks Guys.

Isn't plal selling off their remaining C&J stock, after which they will no longer carry them?

I asked Plal about a C&J last week and they told me they weren't shipping to NA anymore.

Ordered a pair of Westbournes at the end of January, which arrived in Chicago last weekend. No problems to report here.
