Just as a follow-up (and certainly not to beat a dead horse), I called STG and Revzilla yesterday just for grins and both told me that there wasn't any flexibility in price on the MAG-1's or any Sidi products. Meh, was worth a shot, I suppose. Justin, I think there may be a point worth mentioning regarding something you typed earlier, though: the vendor can charge whatever they want for the boots; I'm pretty certain the price control / restrictions apply to the price they can publicly advertise.
