Vintage very tall Wild Pair boots!

There have been a few recent deals on really tall vintage Wild Pair boots.  Nicely photographed, but none modeled.

These never-worn, rare chap boots in a size 6 sold for $96.90.  In a larger size, I think these boots in this rare style and condition could have sold for closer to $200!

The same seller listed these size 6 crotch-high boots with a Buy It Now price of $50.00, which is what they sold for.  I could have snapped these up at that price, but the size was way too small to have good resale value.  These were listed as pre-owned, but appear to be in excellent, rarely-worn condition.  Again, I've seen these boots in larger sizes sell for $275 and up, especially during the holiday season.

And to show off the great height of both of these boots, the yardstick in the photo was a very nice touch!

Another auction for Wild Pair crotch-high boots, also in a size 6.  These nicely-photographed boots sold for $93.61.  Although they were listed as pre-owned, these appear to be in mint, barely-worn condition, especially the soles.

Although these were listed as Wilson's Leather, I'm pretty sure Wilson's never sold boots (although it would be a great compliment to their leather apparel)!  These studded black leather thigh-high boots are classic Wild Pair.  Although these size 8 boots were listed with a Buy It Now price of $89.99, they sold for a Best Offer price.

A deal on a trendy black leather moto-style jacket

Someone got a great deal on this very trendy black leather moto-style jacket by Bod & Christensen.  This size Large jacket sold for only $66.00 plus inexpensive $5.25 shipping!  Identical jackets by this maker are currently listed for $200-$300 on eBay.  Even though it was pre-owned, it appears to be in excellent condition. 

I especially love the high-zip neck and the totally different looks that can be created by zipping the coat to different heights.  Knowing that it went for a real deal, I wish I would have put in a bid on this trendy leather jacket!  It would look amazing paired with skinny jeans and tall leather boots!

A seller lists some very nice vintage Italian boots with a crazy Buy It Now price of $600!

These rare vintage 1970s-1980s size 8.5 Italian leather boots by Pollini were originally listed with a Buy It Now price of $600.  As attractive as these boots are, I thought they were tremendously overpriced...by about $500!  As it turns out, these sold for a Best Offer, and I'd really like to know how much the buyer got the seller to come down from that crazy Buy It Now price!

What I like about these boots, and most vintage Italian boots, is the quality leather, straight shaft, and narrow stacked heel.  These would look amazing paired with skinny jeans or a pencil skirt!

Another very nice sale from a favorite eBay boot seller!

These Zara XL over-the-knee black leather boots from eBay boot seller "livefire" are definitely more my style than the Burberry boots in the previous post.  My size, too in a EU40/US10.  These boots, listed as a "blogger favorite," sold for their starting bid of $99.99.

These boots originally retailed for $199 and measure an impressive 25 inches tall with a sexy rear zipper.  They look great paired with skirts and jeans!  I could see pairing these with a black leather moto jacket and skinny jeans for a look I'd wear all season long!

A favorite boot seller returns with some amazing Burberry boots

One of my favorite eBay boot sellers "livefire" is back with some very sexy knee-high and over-the-knee boots.  As always, she features amazing modeling in her auction ads and often pictures the boots with jeans as well as skirts to show both casual and dressy looks.  Kudos to "livefire!"

These Burberry Prorsum black patent leather thigh-high boots sold for a deserving $360.00.  These were "new without box" and a large size EU40/US10.   The original retail on these boots was $1,320 and they measured a stunning 28 inches overall!  Note that you can even see the tags on the soles!

These are some of the few higher-end boots I've seen her list on eBay, including a rare Dolce & Gabbana over-the-knee pair a year or two ago.

I've never been into patent leather boots, maybe a little too "Pretty Woman" for me, especially in a thigh-high version.  However, these designer boots are surely very well-made and will make heads turn!

Vintage 1980s Halston boots make a rare appearance

Someone snapped up these vintage 1980s Halston boots for their Buy It Now price of $27.99.  These boots rarely appear on eBay these days and I remember seeing them sell several years ago in the $100-$200 range.

These classic black leather dress boots are the first "real" boots I ever owned, having bought my pair at our local JC Penney Outlet Store for $18.99 in the early 1980s.  I thought these were a real deal as they originally retailed for $80.  A fashion find for someone on a college budget!

The leather on these boots was buttery soft and they had sexy spiked heels and nice almond toes. I remember they fit snug and they looked better with a skirt or dress than they did over jeans.

The size 8.5 boots in the auction were even the same size I bought back then.  Thought about buying these for a trip down memory lane!

Some of the original advertising for JC Penney's Halson line featured these boots, pictured on the model on the far right.

Someone gets vintage black leather thigh-high boots for less than $9!

For just $8.76 US, someone got an amazing deal on these vintage black leather thigh-high boots from a seller in Australia.  Even though they were a small size 7.5, they look like really decent boots with some wear. 

I also liked how the seller modeled them nicely cuffed as well as uncuffed to show the different looks.  The style looks very much like vintage Pleaser boots.

At the low, low price these sold for, I'm pretty sure that shipping cost more than the actual purchase price!
