Oh no did you not remember that American sizes were different?

It wouldnt be worth your while returning them hun. Do you know if they would have to pay tax in america to send them back?

I would get rid of them on ebay xx

Have you checked its definitely cheaper to sell them at a loss than to send them back? You can get the import duty and VAT refunded, so its only the return postage and second pair postage you'd have to pay again
