I've admired these Keen sandals on kids at camp for several years, but they were just too expensive for play shoes, if you know what I mean. Then by chance I discovered Zulily and was able to buy them for half price. Here's the deal, straight from the FAQs on the website:
"The great deals you find at zulily are limited-time offers. New offers launch every day and most last 72 hours. Some of our events feature items from single brands, others combine brands into themed collections.
Our process is a little different from how most online stores work. We make bulk orders when each of our events ends—that's one of the ways we're able to offer such great deals on so many unique products every day. Next, the brand sends your goodies to us and we ship them to you. Take a look at the product description pages for specific details about each item. The shipping time frame depends on what items you order and to which countries you are having them shipped.
zulily orders can be delivered to the United States, Canada and over 100 other countries.
We offer such amazing discounts because we don't house any inventory after our sales end and therefore most of our items are final sale. In most cases, we can't process returns or exchanges."
So I got these sturdy comfortable indestructible shoes at a fair price which makes the transaction even better.
Thanks for the information! I just ordered from Zappo's today...lots of choice but no bargin basement items. Will look into this next time! They look great...and comfortable!
