Birks 24th, Bags 4th

First off:
Bags Spree 3 - im sorry it has yet to arrive!

If you have ordered bags from it and have been very dilligently checking back for updates, THANK YOU AND MANY APOLOGIES but it has not come yet! I will sms all once the parcel arrives. They have sent it out on the 8th Oct. Come this Thursday will be one month, I seriously hope it comes. I sent this parcel out by a different shipping mode, hence the super long time.

I won't do it again! :) Please be patient dear baglovers ...





Someone pulled out of the Birks 24th Spree~ so there's 1 more slot left open and the spree will close. I have not received all payments, namely from:


1. IVY
2. ADA


Thank you all the rest for your prompt responses!
Please allow a few more days before spree closure :)





The payments for the Bags Spree 4 are not yet complete. I do urge all to check your mails otherwise, it is not being too fair to those who have paid before the dateline. Yea? :) Please try! :) I know its abit hard but you know, good deals come with sacrifice! haha

  1. Yvonne
  2. Jacelyn
  3. Valerie
  4. HuiLing

I will update on this spree here so hope that the spree counter hits 2000 and I'll know that you've been dilligently waiting for my posts. HAHA kidding... I will place orders once all payments are in alright? Once again, if your bags are out of stock i will refund. If your bags are pre-orders, will need to wait 15-20 days. Other than that, delivery takes about 7-10days.

Will update statuses!

Birks 19th Batch - Open!


Good news for all Birk lovers looking to buy a pair or two!

The Spree is now open!


Buying Details:
All selections to be from www.tobiasmayer.com or www.footshopping.com .
Shipping is Free.
All prices are to be converted from USD at a rate of 1.6o.
Each pair is subject to custom taxes of SGD5.
Spree will close on July 7th!
Feel free to mail me!
Please note the following
You belong to the Birks 19th Batch - meaning there were 18 sprees before this!
Each batch is usually 10 – 20 pairs which makes around 300 pairs & counting.
Its generally preferred to communicate through email & sms -
let me know if you prefer other means! Also, do check your mail regularly.
Sometimes, my mails end up in junk/spam folders of hotmail or gmail,
so please check that you do not mark me as spam.

Nearing the order date, please expect to receive a CONFIRMATION MAIL from me.
I will also sms you for an instant reply if needed.
This mail will include itemized details of:
Your order -- check the size and style
The total payment amount -- please note that Sg customs charge custom duties upon arrival of a bulk parcel and from past experience, they usually work out to $5 a pair.

You do not pay shipping charges as it is F.O.C but custom duties are unavoidable due to the bulk order.
Credit cards only accept Euro & USD and so, all prices are calculated from USD to SGD.
Conversion from USD is fixed at x1.6 to SGD.
This is slightly higher than the rates you get online as it is a credit card transaction and is always changing, determined daily by the respective banks.
It is fixed at 1.6 for convenience sake as I will only know exact rate, 1 month after the transaction when the statement arrives - as such, I would rather have you pay a dollar or so more upfront, than trouble 20 people to transfer it 1 month later.

Within 2 days of your confirmation - your payment is needed.
Please pay by bank transfer (POSB/DBS) --
as cash & carry is a tad too risky for me, for this I seek your kind understanding :)
Ordering will commence only upon payment --
as such, please pay promptly to avoid making the others in the spree, wait for your payment.
Thereafter, it will be transacted and no further changes may occur.

When nearing the date of arrival, please expect to receive an ARRIVAL MAIL from me.
I will also SMS you, just incase you have no internet access.

This will include the date and location to pass you your purchase.
Should you be unable to make it, I will try to arrange a time separately for you to collect.
Alternatively you may send others on your behalf.
In the event of a defect, please inform me.
However, if you feel that your shoes differ in color or size from the actual on site,
please feedback them to the site directly.
Location for mass meetup will be confirmed when the shoes arrive, over SMS.
This will be at a place with MRT access but cannot be determined as yet, due to variable schedule and timings.
Lastly: Please note it is NOT my duty that you receive your shoes neither is it within my responsibility to deliver or meet you at your convenience. It is the buyers duty to ensure payment and collection. The usual practice is to pay $9 of postage per pair but I have decided to arrange meetup so you can save this amount.
However, it has to be to my convenience if you are unable to make it for the mass meet up which is arranged for.

Happy Shopping!

Birkenstocks: Newalk Basics

I recently had some comments that Birks are too ex and they are willing to pay for only the sale items. However, most of the basic styles are seldom on sale.

So here, let me introduce the Newalk Basic sandals!

They are like the Papillios, using the Original Birkenstock Footbed (which is all that matters) and a microfibre insole. Because of that, they are able to sell it at about half the price of Birkenstocks.
I have not tried them personally but lookswise, they look just as comfortable with the same grooves and sole-moulds.

Comes in 3 styles:
Leman (1 strap aka Madrid)
Fulda (2 strap aka Arizona)


Parana (Thong aka Gizeh)

The Leman Series has patterns and although are not as colourful as Papillio, address the basic needs of those who which to have comfort on their feet at affordable prices.

Buying Details:

SGD 55

For all sandals, tax inclusive.

Available in Narrow & Regular.

Sizes same as Birks, from 35 - 43.

Birks flip flops!

Here are some of the newer stuff from Birkenstock, I thought I should introduce.
Papillio has recently started to sell waterproof and super lightweight flip flops - named "Del Mar". I bought a pair and though it wasn't for myself, I saw, felt and tried them on.
Selling at much lesser than Havaianas, these moulded footbeds gradually conform to the patterns of your sole after long wearing. They cost 10 Euros online and come in sizes 36 to 46 for men and ladies. They are packaged in a transparent papillio drawstring shoebag.

Betula alike has also produced a range of flip flops which have a more feminine appeal. From the pinkish shades and slimmer cutting. They too cost 10+ Euros, which is very much a far cry from what Havaianas can cost. They're called "Energy". Pretty weird a name when you look at the powder pinkish slipper. However, its comfort nevertheless is unsurpassed.

Personally, I own a Havaianas and it has served me well. I suppose they are different in nature one being the heavyweight continental and the other the featherlite agile.


Betula's Energy Sandal - SGD 26

Papillio Del Mar Sandal - SGD 26

Should you want to give them a try, feel free to drop me a mail! :)
