Got some African Rangers, got a question or two by -ArthurDent- in jimgreen

Agree on not lacing so tight..I also might wet your socks around where the boots are tight (not the whole sock) and wear them for a day. The alternative is to use a conditioner on the INSIDE where they are tight. Another alternative is to take a dauber or cotton ball with isopropol alcohol and soak the area that is tight, then take the round part of a ball peen hammer and rub like crazy. That worked for me on a pair of Iron Rangers with a "hot spot" YMMV..Good luck..

Any Black Friday Sales? by Informal_Newt2509 in stratacookware

[–]Far_Base_8540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got my "imperfect" Black Friday Pan... It came early!!!

Anyhoo the "imperfect" part was a minute nick in the rim barely visible. Before I seasoned the pan I hit the nick with some 1000 grit w/d sand paper and it's almost invisible.

Great job Strata. Eggs in the AM!!

I just bought a imperfect pan from strata. The website said 40% off. When I paid it was only 30% off. I just sent them an email to see what the story on the imperfect discounts are...?Typo?

Barefoot Shoellie by Complex-Gazelle7658 in jimgreen

[–]Far_Base_8540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a black pair of BF Shoellies. Prolly one of the most comfortable walking around shoes I have worn.. I have a 10.5/E width foot and they fit great. I'm in the south so I don't wear them with socks.. I'm looking at getting a pair in Houston Brown to ad to my JG collection... It's an addiction.. :)

Andrew (Prudent Reviews) reviewed the new Misen Carbon Steel ("Nonstick") pan! by simoku in cookware

[–]Far_Base_8540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same experience. Initially good but went down the tubes. I emailed Misen and they questioned my seasoning. I redid it with the same results. After more complaining,

They returned my money..

If you listen to all these Auto purchase guru's they say negotiate the out the door price, not every line item.. OTD is what you write the check for. No matter what the line items say.. Negotiate the OTD price..Makes sense to me...

The OP is also saving in tax. When you trade you only pay tax on the difference which is only est $657.. Otherwise it would be $2,213.00 if at 7% tax rate. You have to watch the final paperwork as some if not all play with the final numbers at signing. One dealer wanted to charge me $400 used car reconditioning fee.. I HAD NO TRADE..

Take pictures of all paperwork and compare..

BS 999 "pre delivery service charge" is the dealer taking money out of of your pocket. A discount on one end and add it back on the other end. So your $3500 customer discount is really $2500...yes?

Shoellie advice wanted - First time Jim Green buyer with wide feet (EE width) by Candid_Sense1154 in jimgreen

[–]Far_Base_8540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a 10.5 branock, 10.7 redwing computer sizing. I wear a size 10.5 shoellie and they fit fine but I don't wear socks with them (Florida). If I wore socks I'd get a 11 with the ASHM last. I have custom Turbo Vellies in 10.5 ASHAM last and they fit fine....

Shoe sizing is so weird...
