I posted in my local league facebook page looking for people selling the MG Vanguard or the Hummer 9000. If I don't get any bites I will have to order a new one online. I only buy skates once every few years and I like for them to be perfect (at least for a while).

Here is a picture of one of the frames, I tried to show what I was talking about the best I could. [Edit] The more I sit here and let this sink in, the more upset I'm getting. These had normal cosmetic wear and a chip here and there in the normal spots. But they took a used $140 frame and really mangled it. Part of me is still hoping these will be fine because I want to skate on them this weekend, but if I am risking my new boot in any way/shape/form I will strongly consider placing an order for a new set of frames.

On the topic of frames and repair, I just got back from Perani's after getting my frame (Bauer MG) taken off my old skates. and two (one on each skate) of the rivet holes are a little chewed up and one of them has a crack all the way through the metal at the thinnest part. Based on that description do you guys think that they are ruined? or am I just being a perfectionist and need to relax?
