Bought some perfekts last week and have worn them two days. The bottom of my foot feels like I jumped off a 20 story building.  Is this normal?

What kind of socks are you wearing? Good boot fit needs good socks if you ask me to make it really right. 2 days in I wouldn't be too concerned with them not feeling just right. You've got to get them broke in. I have the Meindl Perfekt hunters and they've been awesome boots. No leaks, comfortable, etc. they've been everywhere from the top of Mt Adams to the Blues and the northeast and have been great boots.

Here are a few that I have tried and reviewed. Might be worth looking into.
