Boot saga, part two

[triskellian]

(Part one is here.)

There have been many more trials and tribulations. The boot retailer apparently only answer their phones on alternate days, and ignore all voicemail messages, but are perfectly helpful and friendly on days they will deign to answer the phone. Accordingly, my boots have just been delivered to my office...

So that all ended happily then? Well, um, no. I quite like the boots, but the leather is thin, and feels flimsy. This combined with the single zip makes me worried about their longevity, so I'm going to send them back.

However, in a transparent attempt to stop me whining about my inability to acquire boots, the marvellous secretrebel has found me a supplier of The Perfect Boot! The 14-hole, two-zip, purple DMs of my dreams, and of many previous years of happy wear!

I ordered two pairs. Now [cue ominous music] I just have to wait for them to arrive...

If they arrive and are indeed perfect, perhaps the suppliers will then deserve some hyperlink love?

Well, possibly. Except for the fact that The Perfect Boots are no longer in production, so telling people where I got them from risks reducing the pool available for me. Hmmm, maybe I should buy another ten or so pairs before praising them with linkage...

(Note to self: bribe/blackmail secretrebel to take her secrets to the grave.)

Ah, fair enough - perfect boot shop is less useful in the absence of boots!

Heheheh. Anyone could find it if they could emulate my cunning search terms. :)
