Who wouldn’t love to stumble upon the ultimate Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale?
Wouldn’t you like to be able to take pictures like these to post on your Instagram page?
Yesterday we decided to search the web to see if anyone was having a Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale. We began by typing “Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale” into Google. The first 3 results were ads from diggingprice.com, therealreal.com and shopstyle.com
The diggingprice.com headline offered us 80% Off Louboutin Shoes.
Can you imagine an 80% off Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale? Let’s say you found a nice pair that cost $795. You would be able to get it for $130.
Of course we know by now that no one sells authentic brand new Louboutins for $130. So we didn’t get excited to see the 80% Off Louboutin Shoes headline. We figured there was some kind of catch. So we calmly clicked through to see what was up with the unlikely offer.
Turns out diggingprice.com sells fake designer shoes. Anytime you see a brand new pair of Christian Louboutin shoes for $150 you should know it’s not authentic.
We’re quite surprised that Google would show ads from sites that are selling fake Louboutins
People trust Google. And because people trust Google, some might make the mistake of thinking the Christian Louboutin shoes being sold at Diggingprice.com are authentic. They look authentic. And why would that website appear as the #1 result when they search for a Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale if the shoes weren’t real Louboutins? People don’t expect that, even if the top results are paid placements, the ads will be from companies that are not reputable. So Google should probably not be allowing this ad. Not everyone is savvy enough to realize that they can’t purchase authentic brand new Christian Louboutin shoes from any legitimate source for $150.
The replica business is quite interesting. The fake Louboutins look like the real Louboutins. So one wonders if the only differentiating factor is the knowledge that one is real and one is fake based only on how much was paid for the shoes?
Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale – The Real Real
The second ad that showed up when we Googled “Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale” was an ad for therealreal.com. The Real Real sells “pre-owned and authenticated luxury items including men’s and women’s luxury fashion, fine jewelry & watches and fine art”. What that means is that you won’t find brand new Louboutins for sale at therealreal.com. So the prices will be lower. But don’t expect to find the hottest styles and do expect that the more recent the season the closer to retail price you’ll be asked to pay for the shoe.
The picture below shows some examples of what you can get in the $100 – $200 price range of used Louboutin shoes sold at therealreal.com.
Not exactly what comes to mind when you think Christian Louboutin….
The Christian Louboutin Salopatina mesh pumps below are closer to what you have in mind right? We feel you.
So is it possible to find a Christian Louboutin shoes clearance sale on brand new Christian Louboutin shoes?
Hey, anything is possible! But if you’re looking for prices under $500 you’re going to have a tough time with that. Tough doesn’t mean impossible though. You’ll just have to be pretty diligent and persistent in your search. We’ve seen brand new Christian Louboutin pumps on sale for under $500 at Bluefly.com for example. But it was only 1 pair and not the most exciting pair of Louboutins we’ve ever seen.
Here’s a breakdown of the lowest prices found on some of the online stores that sell Christian Louboutin shoes
Retailer | Low Price | Product |
---|---|---|
Net-A-Porter | $445 | Espadrille Style Canvas Sneakers |
Saks Fifth Avenue | $525 | Espadrille Style Canvas Sneakers |
Barneys New York | $595 | Espadrille Style Canvas Sneakers |
Neiman Marcus | $595 | Espadrille Style Canvas Sneakers |
Bergdorf Goodman | $625 | Espadrille Style Canvas Sneakers |
Nordstrom | $675 | Christian Louboutin Dorissima pumps |
You should expect to spend at least $675 to get a nice pair of Christian Louboutin heels. If you’re lucky you might catch a sale at one of the listed sites above. But don’t expect it to be an 80% off sale.
If you’re willing to settle for pre-owned Louboutins, you have other resources aside from The Real Real. You can try tradesy.com or yoogiscloset.com
If, like us, you don’t want your first pair of Loutboutins to be used shoes, you’ll just have to stay on the lookout for sales on Christian Louboutin shoes.
Nordstrom will be holding their annual Anniversary sale July 17-August 2, 2015. Maybe you’ll get lucky and find your perfect pair of Louboutins for an amount you can kinda sorta afford to take the risk of spending. Right now their lowest price is $675; but maybe the prices will vary throughout the sale period and the early access dates.
