so here i am, in grey old london town....
watching the wevva radar, promising 50cm of snow this thursday in cervinia.....
making me think of finally sorting out something for over chrimbo.
i figure i had better gets me new booties!
having tied hockey skate laces for most of my child hood, until my hands bled.....
i figured a Boa system would do.
cue dribbles over Vans Fargo Focus.
apparently, we limies get brucey bargains over in seppolandia right now coz of quid to buck exchange rates and so i go on line and find a store that does the boots for $220!
'kin A!!!!!! they are £200 over here = $393!!!!!!
i could've gone into town to suss my required foot size for these beauties over the weekend...but you know.... it was wet and windy and it had been a long, tiring week, educating war mongerers on here and all..... and so i went in my lunch today.
cool and the gang! found the boots, checked em out close up... more dribbling. sort out the size of my hoof and try em on... oooooooh bay-beeeeee!
get back to the office dungeon, log onto the bargain store somewhere in Oregon; my size sold out.
instant message them.... 'when will you restock......?'
answer.... '2008'
BOLLOCKS!
i guess i need to just find another store that has good prices (well prices under $390!!!!!)
another interesting thing tho is, my shyster gov wants tax for this that and everything! makes me wonder if i will get a bill for taking a shi*t in the morning sometimes!
anyways, for stuff bought abroad if it costs more than £145, you pay VAT and customs tax; that adds up to about 20%
the boots of my dreams came in at about £137 ca-ching!
now however......
BOLLOCKS!
so i wonder... does anyone know of a good online boot retailer? my poor malamutes cannae survive another season. they need their rest.
thank you and good night!
