      Just make sure you are using Metcons for their purpose .. ie gym/weights.

      Doesn't take much walking with the rock hard soles for my feet to get so sore!

        Got there 9:45am this morning. They let 5 or people at a time. Queued an hour and moved 2-3 meters. Couldn't be bothered and left. At that rate I was going to get in at midday. If you have time go for it…. seems like good bargains can be had tho

            @stockastics: As I’m growing up I’m valueing my time more. I value it at around $40-50 an hour.

            So if I have to travel over and hour to save less then $50.
            I’ll pay the price of the time.

    Anyone who went today able to explain a bit more about the purchase limits?

  • danielh on 13/10/2018 - 21:21

    When they say sample sizes are they talking about perfectly good US sized 9-10 shoes for $20 or have they been deliberately damaged in some way to make them a sample. I say this as when Myer was my client many many years back, the employee sales they had would have good leather shoes for $10-$20 but it would have a hole deliberately drilled through the sole.

    Also, I'm actually more interested in the Bags so anyone have an idea of what sort of bags they have on sale? EG. the shoe bags, Nike backpacks, Nike Alphas (duffel sized bags) etc. Even the Nike Shoe bag for $10 is a good deal to be honest.

    • Creamsoda on 13/10/2018 - 22:00
      +2

      I've managed a shoe store many years ago. they didn't deliberately drill the soles. those shoes are usually SAMPLES thats been carried or sent through customs. they drill the holes to check for any hidden illicit items.

      • danielh on 13/10/2018 - 22:55

        Thanks for clarifying that. I always wondered about that as it seemed to be a waste of a perfectly good product.

      • downbythecreek on 14/10/2018 - 01:24
        +4

        Customs don't drill the holes, any commercial sample that someone brings in to the country and wants to avoid paying Duty/GST on cannot be in a saleable condition, the easiest way to do this for shoes is to drill holes, it's a really common practise and has nothing to do with looking for hidden goodies. Source: worked for customs for over a decade

    • richmond12 on 13/10/2018 - 22:07

      That’s stupid- why would they drill a hole for?

    • danielh on 14/10/2018 - 13:08

      They just said that they are going to be clearing everyone out and start letting in bunches of people in at a time for 30 mins then clear them out for the next block. Going to start in about 15 mins (1.25pm ish).

      Bit is a pain as I’m third in line right now.

    • DesolateApophic on 14/10/2018 - 09:33

      9:30 and spans around 2 corners. At least 200 peeps.

      Will send update on what is there.

      As at 9.44 the line has gone around the building on Gipps street and turned around the corner again into Albert street and that turn is about 40m deep. Total estimated length of line is about 100-120m long

      10.30 and another 3m.
      I think from the corner of Lt Nicholson and Gibbs street the eta should be 90mins to 2 hours. Pretty bad.

      • DesolateApophic on 14/10/2018 - 10:43

        I reckon 140min from halfway on Nick

      • danielh on 14/10/2018 - 12:36

        I should re-update my optimistic statement and say that from the corner of Lt Nicholson and Gibbs streets to the front it is about 3 hours.

    • danielh on 14/10/2018 - 10:51

      10.50 and another 3m

    • danielh on 14/10/2018 - 11:05

      Just had someone try to cut in the line and I had to kick him out.
