Arg. Although the base price for this item (and some small percentage of their other stuff on the site) is low, they are overcharging for shipping.<br>For instance, going from one liner to two liners raises the shipping price from $8.50 (wha?) to $14.50 (ow!)<br>I hope these things are good.

wolfs,<br><br>Something I noticed about your post: If you were thinking otherwise, these are sold in pairs, not singles (you can ignore if you knew this).<br><br>When I read your comments, it made me think I may have only bought one liner for $5, thinking it was a pair, so I double checked the website. The wording was confusing as to which was correct, so I called them for clarification; they said they indeed sold for $5 a pair. <br><br>The woman with whom I spoke added they've had a lot of calls on that point, and she was going to have the webmaster add a line in the site to clarify the matter.<br>-s

:D I'm laughing because I actually bought two pair of size 9s, assuming they couldn't POSSIBLY cost only $5/pair. I had planned to just buy one pair.<br>

I was going to buy two PAIRS. And maybe I still should have. But paying almost 15 bucks to ship a box that's certainly no more than 1 cu.ft. or 6 lbs just seemed odious, no matter what the purported base price. I figured I could always use multiple pairs, either for experimenting with degree of bake or to use one for its claimed purpose in a snowboard boot.

Darn me and my big feet! They seem to only have sizes 8, 9, and 10. Sounds like a great deal, though. You could consider the somewhat excessive shipping charges as making the deal just slightly less stupid, and with that price, why not end up with four liners - make a friend happy for Xmas?

They periodically run low on stock -- the first time I checked they only had sizes 8 and 8.5, but two days later they had the full range of sizes.  So either check back periodically or contact them inquirning when they expect to be restocked.<br><br>Yeah the shipping is ridiculous-- but even with shipping it works out to &lt;$15 per pair -- which is approimately 10% of what you'd pay walking into Marmot Mtn Works.<br><br>I ordered two pairs of size 11.  When the box arrived it only had one pair!  I called them and they actually answered the phone and said "Do'h! our bad" and sent out the second pair right away.
