Only bumping because there's been way more interest in these than I anticipated.
I've essentially 'interviewed' 2 serious buyers and been introduced to a third now who I've agreed to and am comfortable to selling these to.
Sorry for the others who just PM'd me tonight and last night.
I know these aren't a 'good' Btals or Valk but they're unbelievably rare and I've owned this exact pair since i was 12, in 2002. I bought them because they were 50% MF and USEast's trade channel average price was 15 SoJ's for 50% travs at the time. I got these for only 13. It was just a good deal. Nobody cared about 100% perfect stuff like %ED back then.
These just became the boots I'd use on my mf sorc until I stopped MFing altogether in 1.11 or so except for some ladder seasons.
I didn't find out they were the imported ones until someone brought it up to me and then I looked into them and found out why they were originally made.
I'm sure I probably pissed one person off when I was asking questions before selling so I'm just explaining it for whoever else may have gotten mad.
I've had these exact boots since I was 12. I'm turning 36 in March. 2/3 of my life I've kept these things and I know there's likely only 2 maybe 3 at best left, if that.
I just wanted to make sure they went to someone who's serious about collecting and keeping the LoD historical items alive.
I didn't expect to find someone willing to pay that I also liked, but I did.
So consider these sold as of now. Waiting on buyer to log back on now.
