Hi, I took the liberty of saving my husband the hassle of buying me a mothers day gift. I don't think they will mind if I helped out a bit. I have been eyeing the black patent ergo for a long time and finally purchased one on ebay. It was 250 (inc shipping) NWOT from a reputable seller with excellent feedback. I think that's a good deal. I live in Canada and have my items shipped to my SIL's house in Boston. I am going to visit her in two weeks where I will also pick up my whiskey ali, legacy swing pack and white ali. Yeah!
