| | | Damn!!!
So I'm cruising eBay checking out the latest listings of men's R&R, and what do I come across?  Size 32x34 Taylor Opiums in Excellent Used Condition. The BIN price was $19.99. Shipping was only $6.50.
So I BIN'ed them. 
And then I get the following message from the seller. "hi please do not pay!! i am ending this listing it is a mistake, $19.99 is suppose to be the starting bid not the buy it now price!! sorry, please check my listings again! thanks"
Huh? 
Of course, I had already paid. And then I get this from PayPal... You received a full or partial refund of $26.49 USD from Wendy K*****. "hello, sorry there was an error in the listing. the starting price is $19.99...please check out my listing again. thanks!"
Damn!!! 
I could make a stink about it. But I know the seller made an honest mistake. Oh, well...  ROCK & REPUBLIC vtg wash DENIM JEANS buttonfly 32 x 34 - eBay (item 300327087437 end time Jul-01-09 19:13:17 PDT)

| | | They are nice. I own a pair of NWOT Taylor Sulfur. Similar wash to Opium. The R's aren't as nice, though.

| | Do they make these in Henlee? I don't like flap pockets. It would be cool if they have that wash in Floyd or Henlee. That'll be awesome. |

| | | The seller put a BIN on this for $140.00 + $6.50 shipping. I guess if you really wanted this pair, then its not that much. I'd know I'd pay that and then some for a pair of Selenium or Tangled Lines.
