aladynsane - you'll _never_ secure a good trade on this site

Why not? His request is up there in the first post. Cannot be missed. And if anybody wants to get into trade nothing can stop this. All posts by the smart arses are actually preventing this thread from dying an early death.

And I want to believe
In the madness that calls 'now'

When I've seen the 20 replies I almost believe it.
C'mon I was talking seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But anyway if someone can send me the red ones I'll be very thankful.

... sordid details following...

Awws, I'm sorry for hijacking your thread. I can assure you I meant no harm. I hope you get some actual trade offers soon.

And tv eye, I'm not sure if it counts as smartassing if I genuinely at first thought this thread was about boots, as in footwear. I wasn't actually making fun of anyone's search for bootlegs - hell no, the only thing I thought funny was my own bizarre word association.

Actually, I'm a lab mouse on stilts.

Drops head in shame.

Sorry I haven't got any of these bootlegs, but if you wanna pm me I have got some good shows from this period

And the wrong words make you listen
In this criminal world
Remember it's true, loyalty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too

ugh - i guess not then.

my rather harsh comment comes from my very annoying experience from posting in cc and getting all sorts of "funny" comments back. the frustration doubles if you opt for (what you'd think, would be) relevant posts to be sent to your mailbox.

and yeah - i did manage to secure one good trade through here during the 4 or so years i've been around. way more were called off because the traders were genuine freaks (chrissy/isabel guns debate, anyone?), used unacceptable trading methods (converting mp3 to cd audio), did not reply to my emails, etc, etc. etc.

the boots aladynsane requested are rather rare - i'd guess only a handful of people who post or even read here would have at least one from that list.

You can buy boots EXTREMELY similar to those at "The Delta of Venus," in London, on Drummond St (I think number 151?), near the Euston Tube station.

The owner is also a great Marc Bolan fan and has plenty of other way-fun things. :-)



Maybe if I write this now, while drunk, you'll all understand.
