can i return these shoes to a different shop?

I ordered a pair of Converse online in a 7 and they're too big for me, a 6/6.5 would fit much better. the box doesn't have any packaging to state where they were bought, just the usual Converse sticker on the end. could I bring them back to a shop here and swap them for another size? Said website is sold out of all sizes now and if I post them back for a refund I will be out about €10 for postage

Are you trying to bring back the shoes to the bricks & mortar store from the same retailer? Or are you trying to return to a completely different retailer? Sorry, but it's just not completely clear from your post

sorry! I bought them from ASOS, so I was going to try and swap them at a shop here (elverys/lifestyle/whatever shop has them in stock)

Your wouldn't be the first to try op but I doubt you'll get away with it

This is exactly the kind of thing they give out about in the Cries Of Retail thread

No shop in their right mind would do this without a receipt, people try to get away with it every day, they're not complete idiots

Alright thanks for the replies! Looks like i'll have to post them back...last time i'll chance buying shoes online!

To be honest, not a chance. No shop will take back goods sold by a different retailer.

In future, it's a good idea to try on a couple of shoes from a brand so you know how their sizing works. You can then feel reasonably confident when ordering online.

thanks for the reply i wasn't looking to get store credit or money back or anything, just swap for the exact same ones in a different size. i understand though. thanks for the reply
