I just go to http://journeys.com/ and i call the number to see if they have the right size and shoe that i would like and i would go to the store or buy it online Smile

what about you?

Journeys is good. They have some exclusive styles and you can return to a store if you want to. But they don't have all styles.
Another thing that's worked with Journeys for me is if you go to a store and they don't have your size, they'll order it for you and have it shipped right to your house for free.

Depending on where you live there are various reasons for chosing one internet site over another.
Regarding sales tax:
Some may charge you sales tax for your state.
Shipping is also important to consider:
First off, some have free shipping...
But most of these use USPS ground delivery which can take up to 2 weeks.
Since a lot of the internet retailers ship from the mid-west, if you live on the coast, it takes the longest to get your goods.
Zappos.com, however, has really good delivery... usually one day (fedex) and they have free returns but their prices are a little higher.
I now ask others if they can use Fedex ground instead of USPS ground...It costs about the same as USPS but usually arrives in 3 days or less.
Some sites have product a little lower in price, so that can be a consideration.
If you register on their sites, they'll often have sales and let you know by e-mail (also when new styles arrive).
Many sites only go up to size 8 or 9, so there are fewer choices if you need larger sizes.
I quite often use inlinewarehouse.com since they usually have the new styles available to view the soonest and you can pre-order them. Prices are good...shipping is really fast (to me) but I do have to pay sales tax.

www.zappos.com
That is if you want to buy them online.

Personally, I'd rather buy them in a store so that I can try them on, see if I like the shape and weight of the shoe. But that's just me. GETTING MY NEW HEELYS TONIGHT!!!!

I dont care if there comfortable or fit, as you could probably tell by the fact that mine are 4 sizes to big for me! Better grow into them then grow out of them!

I Google; at size 11 finding the style I want is a matter of who happens to have it in stock.
