Seems you have been living under a rock. https://www.batakenya.com/categories/men-shoes I've gone through the process and it seems there's a discount a shoe worth 1,799 + 350 shipping cost ended up costing Ksh 1,789. This could be a bug too as they dont mention any discounts They dont mention when I will receive the pair Interesting All stores should follow suit. Online shopping will create other opportunities as the goods will need to be transported to wherever. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

I use pay on delivery option so that I pay for what I see. Am a happy customer. Proverbs 13:11 Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
