A little sore about misfit boots

[James]

He used to have a small place on the Rue du Moulin I think but I don't think it's there anymore. Steve and Jules know each other very well I am led to understand and at times have been best buddies/mentor/protege and at others fallen out masively.

That so isn't surprising!

Appears that Jules is at Sanglard Sports, The Bootroom. At least as of 2016/17

"The Bootroom was founded in 2006 by Damien Amblard and Jules Mills who have worked on the world cup circuit for many years."

Solebootlab has a pair of Spatulas on the ceiling that belonged to Shane McConkey.

AngryAnalyst - I’m curious what you think the remedy for this situation should be?

It’s a good question and I confess I am still not sure. Some sympathetic listening and an apology for the duct tape suggestion is I think the minimum acceptable outcome. Why this is important to me in any practical sense is unclear, but it is important.

I don’t know if it is fair that I would feel entitled to demand a refund from someplace like Surefoot (absent some very specific explanation of what exactly is being guaranteed that was not provided here), but don’t want to demand that from a small shop.

I am also still unsure whether it is fair to leave a “Bad Review” somewhere for the selling shop. They did do a series of things that were unhelpful or wrong.

4 pages of discussion in - I do appreciate that this was a complicated problem in more depth than I did at the beginning. I am not sure what impact, if any, that should have on the fair outcome.
