FS: Line Transfer Skiboard boot

Anyone here remember when Line had a skiboard only boot, that was pretty much a hardshell snowboard boot?

Well I do, because back in the day I bought a pair, and here's their story:

Only used them for a season several years ago, I switched over to skiing, and these things disapeared off the face of the earth cause I never needed them again.
Then one day while moving they magically resurfaced, still in good condition, and now they are here on NS.

They're size 10 btw:

Seriously, if anyone knows where I might be able to sell / trade these let me know.
and I'm obviously not looking for a lot of dough here.

They don't work with normal release ski bindings, they are basically hard shell snowboard boots.
Skiboard bindings (at least all of the ones I've seen) are different than traditional ski bindings and don't release at all.

Was there a 2nd generation Transfer boot?  The originals had cables, rather than clips, like the Flexons.

Yeah I don't really know which boot was first or whatever...

but a quick search on NS brought me pictures of the other transfer boots and made me feel all nostalgic:

anyway, does anyone actually know if there's a legit skiboarding site still active where I could unload these?

I'm sorry, did you say the "laws" for skiboards? Are you implying that there are laws that dictate which bindings can go on which skis? Like, if I put an old style  skiboard binding on a ski the police would pull me over in some kind of snowmobile squad car and arrest me? I'm pretty sure you can do whatever you want.

i think some places dont let you ski if your bindings are too outdated becuase of liability
