Riley's and I go matchy matchy

Okay, if you've watched the endless footage of Riley, you know his Mattes saddle pad is terracotta  -- and I have to admit I'm infatuated with that color.  It looks great on him, and for a shade of orange it isn't awful on me.

So what do you think happened when I ran across these terracotta Uggs?

• Find a pair on sale (1/2 price!).
• Sell current Uggs (chocolate Bailey) and a pair of unused shipping boots on Ebay
• Snap up the sale pair.
• Hope it's not a scam.

Finding a pair was not easy--it is a color from their spring line, now discontinued. Never heard of the company selling the half price pair and they also sell pet food. Weird but I'm desperate. I have a checking account just for "marginal online purchases" at the recommendation of my banking rep.

Update: They've arrived and they are goorrgeous! I was afraid they'd be too orange but they really are the perfect fall color.
