Anyone Need Flip Flops?

AS a result of another thread ive found these on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JOB-LOT-206-PAIRS-BRAND-NEW-LADIES-FLIP-FLOPS-/180522785586?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_WSJL_Wholesale_GL&hash=item2a07ff1b32

With delivery (if we get it at that price) it would come to £114.98 which makes the flip flops £0.55p each!

I need around 50-70. Birdie has expressed an interest at needing approx 50 I believe...

Anyone else in? If we can get enough of us who need these we could get a bargain! :money:

I dont mind getting them in and we can then sort the money ourselves with transfers etc? Plus I have access to a courier at work (free) so can ship them out once I have them)? xx

    The seller would be interested in a buy it now so even if we offered £150 (inc delivery) it would be 0.72p per pair...

    Apologies if I've missed something or just being a bit dim but....why do you need 70 pairs of flip flops?!! I'm intrigued :D

    It's to stick in a basket near the dancefloor so ladies can swap their painful stilettos for comfy shoes and they can dance the night away! :D

    I'd be up for buying 25-30 pairs off you!! Happily pay a £1 a pair so you could make a little profit for you trouble ;)

    Hi Mrs Moore to be

    I'd be happy to have 40-50 pairs from you if you can get them that cheaply!!
