  Searching internet for one shoe

Greetings fellow one shoe fans!

How often do you search internet for one shoe content? I personally do this very often, and can't really spend few days without logging in and trying to get something fresh regarding one shoe. Do you?

I also search the internet almost daily too.

From time to time, when I'm bored and have nothing better to do. Ditto youtube and Deviantart. About half of my daily ebay searches relate to single shoes. Oh and each daily trip around Danbooru ends with checking the tags "single shoe", "shoe dangle" and "mismatched footwear", in case someone caught one I didn't (I check "shoes removed" about once every other week)

Curious. For what purpose?

To add more to my collection of course. Remember I mostly collect illustrations and drawings, not photos or video clips, so Ebay is a good source for the kind of pieces that interest me (okay not a GOOD source, but better than most of the other possible ones I know) I do two searches for things for my collections (both this one and my other ones) on ebay per day anyway, so doing a little checking to see if anything new of interest has been offered is not a big deal. I'd probably do more or less the same thing during my daily book hunt on Rinkya, except I can't read or write Japanese.

No, the actual shoes do not interest me, just images. Though oddly there are a lot of people who DO sell single shoes on ebay. Mostly these are leftovers from either shoe shops (since a lot of shoe shops only put one shoe of a pair out for display purposes, if something happens in the store that results in destroyed stock, it is not unusual for the store to suddenly have many, many shoes that are now mateless) or reference models from the factories. I think the buyers are usually either people who had a pair of the same shoes and had one damaged, and so are looking to replace it without having to shell out for a whole new pair (also possibly a smaller number of buyers are people with only one leg/foot, who don't need two shoes and don't want to spend the extra money.)
