9F only, will take any up to 400, up to a total of 1000 pounds or thereabouts in the unlikely event of there being more than one pair.

OK I'll make a deal: if it's black, Flake can have it. Especially if it's a black derby - never saw any logic in those. If it's dark brown or rioja like he wants, then it's mine if it's a boot or loafer, his if it's an oxford or derby. And if it's anything else, especially anything weird - blue, green, red, panda hide, it's mine. Deal? :)

I'd also generally pass on a black derby, but otherwise that works for me! And...if there's two boots, you take first pick, but I'd be interested in the other. Deal?

So, it'd be great if everyone could post their size and the maximum they're willing to pay not including shipping/proxy fee (3 traches: £250, £350, £450).

Any last.

I'm after an oxford (most will be ok except suede) or the Hove. The oxford can be any colour but the Hove I'm after brown/vintage rioja.

I appreciate there's an inherent risk you're bearing so I can pay you a deposit if it provides you with more comfort before you buy the shoes :)

What are the next steps? Confirming which ones are available, agreeing on a price/deposit/shipping and buying?
