    asking for free volleys? :P

    http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/41607

    • oz-dxer on 29/08/2011 - 12:15

      Yes, i got a pair of these.
      only catch was that the box was labelled "Size 12 US" but the contents had "Size 11US" inside.
      So you could say they were "a bit snug".
      Anyway gave them to me 16yo to wear.

  • StewBalls on 29/08/2011 - 00:03

    Great first post, keep up the good work! :)

    • Ace on 29/08/2011 - 00:19

      They're actually the worst kind of shoes you could wear for tennis because they have no support. I used to wear them when playing tennis when I was younger and from that, developed knee and ankle problems. My feet and knees always used to kill after playing tennis in volleys.

      • jimbler on 29/08/2011 - 06:44

        They used to be standard issue for the Defence Force (PT). I'm not sure if they still are. I got a pair when I signed up in '96. I remember that they were pretty comfortable, but I didn't like the look of them. I never thought they'd be this popular, and I think I threw mine in the bin as soon as I graduated.

        • McCoy on 29/08/2011 - 07:25

          No, you didn't get Volleys. You were issued the Dunlop KT26 which aren't a bad shoe, but not really suitable for defence PT.

        • MementoMori on 29/08/2011 - 08:02
          +1

          Agree with McCoy. Strangely enough I enlisted the same year. I got the newer white/black shoes (I was told were made by Nike, but I doubt it) though, everyone else had the powder/sky blue KT26 Dunlops.

        • StewBalls on 29/08/2011 - 08:10

          Same as McCoy & domcc1, KT26's in my day too! :)

          IIRC they used to give out Volleys in the gaols though; not quite the armed forces, but I suppose the inmates are still somewhat indentured! :p

        • serideth on 29/08/2011 - 13:14

          What's not to love about the new "Air Power" PT shoes.
          sarcasm

        • jimbler on 29/08/2011 - 14:55

          Err, yes we did receive the volleys in the Navy.

          We didn't receive those ugly KT26 things that apparently look like this —-> http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lL-uRimQIp8/TN1lFyBoUAI/AAAAAAAACF…

          They were definitely Volleys that looked like this —-> http://www.thetennisshop.com.au/tennis-shop/image/volley-int…

          "Dunlop Volleys were standard issue by the Australian Army and RAAF until the late 1980s and are still issued to date by the Royal Australian Navy although are sometimes substituted with the Spalding imitation shoe."

          Cheers

        • anthony on 29/08/2011 - 14:57

          No, you didn't get Volleys

          Volleys were issued.

  • Tycn on 29/08/2011 - 01:39

    Returned me to cart after clicking through checkout. Not sure if the order made it through.

    • fellator on 29/08/2011 - 01:44

      should get confirmation in email

      • Tycn on 29/08/2011 - 01:46

        Nope, didn't get it.

        Tried again with Paypal instead of CC. Paypal payment went through so I'd recommend using that.

  • joeeeee on 29/08/2011 - 01:41

    YAS GOT MY PAIR!

  • serideth on 29/08/2011 - 01:41

    Edit. Finally got 2 pairs after what was the longest checkout process ever.

  • Shwayne on 29/08/2011 - 01:47

    Site's overloaded. :(

    EDIT: Oh there it goes…

    ..and done!

    Bought 1x Blacks and 1x Blue/Whites.

    • korda on 29/08/2011 - 02:26

      They ran out of the blue/whites while I was sloooowly checking out :P

  • snowpuppie on 29/08/2011 - 01:49

    Finally got a couple pairs… excellent deal and they have a great return/exchange policy as well. How can you go wrong? A bit of patience is required due to OzBargainers bombing the site, though…

  • kheob on 29/08/2011 - 01:52

    What a terrible website. They've already charged my credit card and yet it still says 'connecting'.

    Anyway, I ordered the Mens green/white. They only had these in sizes <9US.

    would have been pretty awesome if they had the steel cap shoes for 10 bucks :P

  • Falbium on 29/08/2011 - 02:23

    Got there in the end. Very slow but no time outs, took around 2 minutes for each page to load. Very happy with the price.

  • ballsofsteel on 29/08/2011 - 02:30

    got the black one , really wanted the green tho! ;(

    still a good deal nonetheless

    also Auspost seems to be down? cant track my parcels..

    • chuckie20 on 29/08/2011 - 02:51

      According to http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ Auspost is definitely down. But don't worry too much, your parcel probably hasn't been posted yet anyway so you probably wouldn't have been able to track it. Nabbed a Blue/White pair in my size and a White/Green/Gold in a size smaller… (I'll squeeze) =P

    Either everyone's asleep or they've plugged in another toaster because I just ordered and everything loaded just fine.

    • pinnacle on 29/08/2011 - 06:44

      Worked for me too..

  • kiwipride on 29/08/2011 - 05:28

    • lou knee on 29/08/2011 - 05:57

      about $30 last time I bought some in Target (from my very dodgy memory, so don't take that as gospel)

      • kiwipride on 29/08/2011 - 05:58

        Thanks Lou.

    • Geewhizz on 29/08/2011 - 07:20

      Normally about $23 in BigW and Kmart. Occasionally on special for $16 or $18

  • Geewhizz on 29/08/2011 - 07:27

    They're great for out in the garden, and easy to throw in the washing machine ….. I can't help wondering if I should have gotten a second pair

  • personoftheyear on 29/08/2011 - 07:37

    I think they have restocked some sizes….size 9 and 10 are available

  • [Deactivated] on 29/08/2011 - 08:05

      I recommend washing ones feet regularly, wearing socks and not stepping in dog poo (or the poo of any other fauna, to be honest - rotting flora should also be avoided).

    • petterk on 29/08/2011 - 09:31

        I'm positive I bought some at Target for $15 once. If not, my mistake!

        (To be fair, it looked like a wild animal had ravaged through them all, and popular sizes like US 9 were hard to come by).

      • Ace on 29/08/2011 - 20:54

        They're usually $15-20. The newer volley styles cost a bit more.

    It would have been quicker for me to drive to K-mart Fountain Gate and just buy a pair from the store.
