You got ripped off. Their flyer advertised them for $5.99 this week.
But they're worth it.

Sorry to hear about the hassles Rachel. I guess KMart will be getting a b*tt reaming from the watchdog group real soon. One would think the buyers from KMart would first ask the manufacturer for licensing proof before they start stocking their stores with said product.

There will be a great many companies and people who are going to be affected by the actions of the Joister Loria group soon.

My response: No! But as a PT owner, I know one when I see one!

given that it looks exactly like a PT, shouldn't DC be going after the manufacturers of the slippers? Even if they don't call it PT, isn't this the infamous use of the "image", etc.?

they should have just warned you to change your listing before cancelling it outright. what a bunch of jerks.

Apparently he has, I have also....I just hope Scott hurries!

As for posting a pic- The first post has an attachment. That's a pic of the slippers. It's called "polished billet" because that's the folder I have it in on my 'puter.......
