  1. Quite disappointed to hear you being an advocate for buying online and then returning! This is terrible practice that puts immense pressures on online retailers. I speak from experience given we are a niche footwear retailer that sells a lot to would be models etc and have so many people buy and return after using for photoshoots. This practice should be condemned not suggested.
