Not in time to put under my X-mas tree and be happy.

I can only be sad. I am going to get a chargeback and keep the boots. I will sell one right boot  out of principle.

Ok my credit card company has put a hold on the transaction and I filed every dispute possible from legal to Paypal.

So I have my money back but I have 2 right boots. What can I do? Will any shops trade a left boot for a right boot straight up?

Im gonna be at killington this weekend does anyone know of any good bootshops that might trade me?

well i mean, i got my money back and i have the boots now.

American Express is very friendly. Much friendlier than eBay or Paypal. They got my money back, screwing Paypal, eBay, and howardsales1 all in one fell swoop.

But now I'm just trying to figure out how I could use these boots this weekend, especially with so many shops closed.

I don't want these 2 right boots go to waste what could I do with them?

I doubt any store is going to trade you a left for a right. Then they are stuck with 2 right feet. I know it sucks b/c its so close to when your going skiing but you might as well use the money you got back from a claim and go drive up to some local shop. I know the ones near me are open b/c all the people staying up in the condos for christmas. So may be your best guess. Then maybe trying to contact the howardsales asap about sending back the right boot for a left, and maybe then you can just sell the pair of boots you have extra on NS to make some money back.

go searching for a shop with a 27 left booter on the demo rack
go in with your boots say you want to heat fit them and when you have a chance switch the right one with the left one

He can contest the charges and the merchant will inform him of your disagreement, in which case they will ask you to send the boot back probably and get your other boot shipped to you.

If the reseller / retailer knows what they are doing, its not easy doing chargebacks
