Boot Swap Page
--find a buyer for boots you
got in the wrong size!
|
I have had to discontinue making this an online interactive page because I was getting about 1000 spams a day. I apologize that this is less convenient, but the spams were increasing exponentially. To submit an entry, Download Form, To change your ad, or to take it down, please EMAIL ME. |
Please
note: shipping costs are additional for these listings. Please
work this out with your seller.
I am providing this page
to help boot buyers and sellers connect as a free public service.
I am not responsible for the conduct of the buyers or sellers, or for the quality of the
merchandise.
However, a lot of people have used
this page very successfully to buy or sell boots. I hear lots of comments
like these:
|
"Just wanted you to know
both the size 5 and 6 boots were sold. Thanks so much for the use of
your web site--it allowed me to sell them and not lose $250.00!" "Thank you so much for
the use of this facility. I have bought a pair of boots using these
ads. Many thanks for the service--it is much appreciated, and I will
use it again (also told my friends!)"-- "Again, can't thank you enough
for the website you provide. The boots sold--after what, four days on your
site? The receiver received them today.... thank you. What a thoughtful
service you provide." "Thank you for providing this service, which sold my boots in 1 week!" "I have sold my last
pair of Easyboots, so can you please remove my ad from your website? Thank you
so much for providing this service - I received numerous responses and all
transactions went well without a hitch." "Gretchen
~ I have sold all sizes of Boa Boots. My listing is dated 11/29/07. I
can't thank you enough for you letting us use your web site. I now have
enough money after selling the boots to purchase new ones in the correct
size for my new horse." |
After
you have sold your boots, or found what you
were looking for, please
EMAIL ME so I can take your
notice down!
If an ad
you contacted is no longer available, please EMAIL ME!
In general, though, the oldest posts are the
first results, and the newer posts are towards the bottom.
I have
been cleaning house on this page recently.
All ads more than 1-2 months old have been deleted, unless people asked me to
keep them up after I emailed everybody. I have also deleted ads with
bouncing email addresses, and emailed everyone with ads older than a
month. A lot of people wrote back that they had already bought or sold
the boots they had wanted to, so I took these ads down. (This resulted in
about 1/3 of the ads coming down on Oct. 19, 2004.) Ads with the first
line (Buy/sell/swap:)
in green were reconfirmed late May/early June, 2007...as still being
current. Ads with the first line (Buy/sell/swap:) in teal
were reconfirmed mid-August, 2007...as still being current.
At present, the newest ads are at the bottom
of the page. My approach in the past was to not take ads down unless the
people asked me to. Since there was so much dead wood from people not
remembering to do this after their boots sold, I will limit the length of time
ads will run in the future to 1-2 months, unless someone asks me to keep an ad
up longer when I recheck them all periodically. If when I recheck
periodically and I don't hear back from you, your ad will come down.
Fraud
prevention for online transactions--
PayPal www.paypal.com offers some fraud protection, and the fees are
relatively lower (sellers are
charged 2.9% plus 30 cents for transactions within the
If you sell something using
PayPal, be sure to keep a tracking number to prove you shipped it. Sending something out with no tracking number
is riskier; you cannot prove you shipped anything out. If you accept a
personal check, wait for it to clear before shipping anything out. It IS
possible to get charge-backs from Pay Pal. If you can't prove you sent
the package out because you don't have a tracking number, and the buyer says it
never arrived, you could lose your money through a PayPal
charge-back. If the buyer claims their PayPal
account was used by someone not authorized to use it (such as one of their
children), a charge-back is also possible. This is a problem PayPal realizes needs to be corrected, though.
If you buy something,
paying through PayPal, it never arrives, and the
shipper cannot prove to PayPal that it was shipped
out to you with a tracking number...you can get your account credited. (This is called a charge-back.)
A common problem lately is for a buyer to
send you a fraudulent cashier's check. The fraud is not caught until the cashier's check gets back to the
issuing bank. Your local bank will probably not catch that it is phony right
away.
Another scam to watch for is when they
offer to overpay for something to be shipped overseas, and ask you to pay their
shipper (also overseas) out of the
overpayment...usually through payment methods that are not traceable, like a
If you pay for something with a money
order, keep a Xerox copy of the
money order so you have enough information to get documentation later from the
issuing bank that the seller has cashed it.
If someone claims they mailed you money,
but you never received anything, ask them to provide documentation that their check or money order has been paid out to
you. If they can't provide documentation, find another buyer who isn't
playing games...
I merely offer a place where
boot buyers and sellers get together. It is open to all, and I don't know
most of the people who are using this page, so I can't accept responsibility for
how anyone using this page acts.
Common
boot sizes:
Width is widest part of the hoof. Length is
from toe to the backs of the heels, but NOT heel bulbs. You are
measuring a footprint.

(The new version of the Old Macs are
a more normal shape than the old version;
they are not wider than long, as the old version was, and fit more horses, and
even some mules.
The breakover on the bottoms no longer has the point
that the old version did.)
