FS: DANNER Mountain Light II Boots

Hi everyone,
I‘ve ordered two sizes of the DANNER Mountain Light II 5“ Boots from the US amazon site. Finally I decided myself for the smaller ones. Now before I return the other pair, I would like to ask if someone here from the board is interested in buying the boots.
The size is US 9.5 / EU 43.5 / UK 9 and I‘m looking for €290 incl. international (EU) shipping.
Some size notes:
I’m usually wear an EU 43 / UK 9 and that‘s my size in the C&J Islay, Tetbury or the Church’s Ryder III. These shoes have a comfortable and perfect (not to tight) fit.
The fit of the DANNER Boots is a little difficult. They are a little narrow at the ball of the foot and at the toes but at the heel and the ankle they are a bit too loose for my taste (or my duck feet). So I went a half size down and I‘m happy with the choice of a UK 8.5.

There are some variations out here with different spacings between the metal cleats. Sometimes they are closer, sometimes a bit further apart. And I don't think this is related to the different shoe sizes.
Another distinguishing feature is the size of the rectangular cut-out at the rear section. If you are looking for a version that comes as close as possible to the screenused ones, then you must ensure that the cut-out should be slightly wider than the rear spike buttons. Another different I've noticed is the wide of the rear band (under the two rear spikes). At the screenshot you can see that it is only a little wider than the two yellow buttons. At some shoe spike I've seen are the bands too wide. One example for that are the ones David shows in his great review. But okay, that's of course difficult to say from a web video.
Wish I'd spied these sooner! Are they still available??
However they are still available at the us amazon site and I guess thats still the best place to purchase the Danner boots. I think it's worth to observe amazon over a few days. Depending on the size and day there are heavily fluctuating prices.
