Where to buy shoes?

Postby kittyasauras » Sun May 15, 2011 10:21 pm

Just like a large bag of those cheapy plastic barbie shoes or shoes that fit babs or obitsus and the ilk. I remember when I was young my mom and me going to a dollar tree (or equivalent) and they'd have a whole box of them for so many $$$ and mom would buy them for me and say "Now, you have to keep track of these. Promise me you won't loose them?"

I wish I had kept my promise.

I know a while back Big Lots had real barbie shoes for real cheaps but none of the stores in my area had any. :(

ugh. I'm just tired of my dolls not having shoes! When ever I get them from thrift stores they are either naked or shoeless...

Well, garage sales are always good. And eBay might have something

Yard sales have been very lacking the the doll department lately. :( It's like when I go to look for them, they are never there. I wish we had some good flea markets around here, all of them have turned into "sell your cheap knock off Chinese junk here" or just loads of butt crap. All of the flea markets around here you have to sign a contract to be there for so many weekends. It's stupid.

I was trying not to resort to the evilbay. Might have to it seems. :I

Here's a nice set of shoes. You get 6 in all! I think I might order this one someday too. :3

My dolls are partial to Licca and Jenny shoes, they have shoes packs of 7 or 8 sets. Re-ment shoes are a source as well but might be a bit tight at times.
And also I check out the sales threads around here.

Barbie shoes don't work for 1/6 Obitsu feet. The shoes are too small and they split.

I've put Liv shoes on my Obitsus, or popped the feet off and stuck the legs in boots.

Oh really? I didn't know that! I have a pair on them right now, but they are squishy so that might be it.

My little obitsu has on BFC ink shoes and they fit with socks.

Some of my Barbie shoes work on the Obitsus - the squishy ones that kittyasauras mentioned. Also - I have some Babs shoes for flat footed Barbies like some of the old teen skippers that work well.

But now that I've seen that shoe pack GiE posted I think I want!
