Their price, the last time I checked, was either $64.95 or $69.95. {I can never recall which it is.} They charge an additional $5 for shipping within the US, but that $5 is constant, no matter how much you order. They have lots of other Tori boots for very good prices as well, and if you're an Ani Difranco fan, they always carry *all* of her 8 {or is it 9?} albums. Anyway, you can contact them at: Rainy Day Records 1-800-636-6166 rainy@mindspring.com http://www.rainy.com :) /nad *************************************************************************** * Nadyne Mielke, CS majour, Southern Tech, Marietta, GA * * * * "I regret to say that we of the FBI are powerless to act in cases of * * oral-genital intimacy, unless it has in some way obstructed interstate * * commerce.
