Vintage Douglas Snyder Super Deluxe (sz 8) Riedell Roller Skates White Size 7.5

Description

WE DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS. Please ASK ALL questions prior to purchase and KNOW what you are purchasing. ANY DISPLAY utilized in the photos is/are not included in the auction unless otherwise stated in the description.
Description/Condition/Flaws/Noted Discrepancies and any additional info that may (or may not) be useful is provided below.
1. This item is listed as Used or Pre-Owned, please expect normal wear from use.
2. These beauties are definitely something to write home about. Purchased at a local (to me) estate sale, the adorable lady was there to tell me a little bit about her semi-pro skating career. (She was definitely more interested in telling me how proud she was of her grand daughter who was a semi-pro bicyclist, though). She told me, ‘those were like 0 when they were new”.
3. They come with the case, the case has seen some better days, but the inside doesn’t smell like “old suite case”, but it does have some staining and has some of the interior coming apart. Ultimately, the case is included but not included in the cost of the item. I am happy to ship them without the case, if that is your desire. I would be able to ‘stuff’ them into a large flat rate shipping box, and that would save on shipping.
4. The boot has a Riedell Red Wing Minnesota tag on the inside of the right boot with the size of “7 1/2” “1409” :… 6311”. There is a set of numbers directly under the size that I cannot read on right boot; on the left boot the number is “336R”. The numbers look to be identical on each boot, so I have no problem saying that is what it would read on the right boot if it was legible.
The plate is “Snyder’s Super Deluxe Skates” “PAT. 2.826.422” “8”. “Douglass - Snyder Custom Built Skates” “PAT. No. 2.510.722 PAT. PENDING”
The wheels are yellow and do show wear and use, they are “Bones 62mm - 98A Powell USA”
The stoppers are Gray in color and are embossed with “DOUGLAS SNYDER CO - DAYTONA O”
5. The right boot (as if wearing) has some damage to the tongue, please see the close up photo. I don’t believe the damage would interfere at all with the intended function of the item, as the majority of the tongue is present.
6. These look to have been kept up well, and the leather appears to have been painted white. There are drips on the sole of the boot, see the photos.
7. Alternate shipping options are available, I will flat rate ship (approx ) without the suite case. Please message me if this is an option you would like and I will add it to the listing.
Ask all questions prior to purchase.

RETURN POLICY:
1. All items are FINAL SALE.
2. We DO NOT accept returns.
3. Please know what you are buying. Just because it isn’t ‘what you thought it was’, does not mean it is different from what was listed.
