Alpo Posted July 16, 2024 Posted July 16, 2024 Back in the early 2000s I bought a couple of souvenir coffee cups from the Leadville Colorado airport. Online. One white one and one black one. And over the years that airplane apparently made it off the ground because they have both flown away. I would like to replace them. I have found Leadville's website. And they mention LVX merchandise. They just don't seem to have a way to get to a page that sells it. So - does anyone, more internet savvy than I, know how to get to a page that sells souvenirs of that airport?
Tyrel Cody Posted July 16, 2024 Posted July 16, 2024 Doesn’t look like you can. I’d suggest an email and more likely a phone call.
Sedalia Dave Posted July 16, 2024 Posted July 16, 2024 Looks like the only way to get them is for a Saloon Pard to pick up a pair and mail them to you.

I thought of asking for that. But if they were available online, I would know how much they were. In 02, or thereabouts, when I bought them, I think they were about five bucks. 22 years later they're probably closer to 20. Looking at them online I could slowly convince myself over a couple weeks that I wanted to spend $40 for two coffee cups. But if, let's say, Bob (lives in Colorado, but I have no idea if he's anywhere near close to Leadville) were to Diddy bop over there and pick me up a couple, well then I would have to pay whatever the heck they cost. Even if they had gone up to 30 or 40 bucks each. Ouch.

Alpo Posted July 16, 2024 Author Posted July 16, 2024 Huh. You would never Diddy bop off somewhere where you live? Did you and your sweetie ever go scootie-poochin'?

Alpo Posted July 17, 2024 Author Posted July 17, 2024 Thanks Joe. This was 22 years ago. You're probably talking to some punk kid that was still in high school at the time.
