I LOVED them on my Joe Appaloosa.

If I needed to buy these new, I’d get them from Riv to support them during

The first problem is they're insanely expensive to ship for private sellers 
and you would already have a local deal if there was one out there. The 
second problem is I see no sign of Riv doing more of these (see: shipping 
issue) so this is probably your (or anyone's) best bet for owning a 
Choco-Moose.
