I saw some vine cord sandals with 5% to each resist, are these shoes obtainable in any way?

As stated, you can certainly buy a pair for 150mil+, but be prepared for them to suddenly turn into Monk Sandals at any time in the future since all but one pair of them are dupes. There was only 1 pair of these sandals in the game, all others were created by dupers.
I do have a question though....
Didn't you JUST start playing UO? How is it you have all this gold to toss around on Heartwood runics, Barbed Kit Runics, Vine Cord Sandals, and whatever else it is that you're buying?

In regards to the whole monk robe thing. They were able to identify which robes were dupes and which weren't, since the dog duped ones had the hue of robes but not the properties. So a change to these items wasn't a big deal. Notice how they didn't change the true duped robes since they had the properties? Same thing with vinecords. If they can't identify which ones were duped, how do they justify changing them? Atleast the dog duped ones were easy to identify, the true dupe ones... not so much.
edit: Just for further thought. If hypothetically they did change vinecords, they'd have to change Samariatan robe, Necro shroud, Shroud of Ari/Bal, Lt Guard Sash, Calm/Pacify/Quell/Subdue etc etc the list goes on, as they have been duped as well. So yea, they could do this, but then they'd have to change every duped item which you can argue is almost everything of value in the rares community.

If there was really only ONE pair of vine cords in the game and now there are 6-100, what does that tell us?
That the owner of the originals ALLOWED the 'original' pair to be duped.
Therefore the original owner is either THE DUPER or EQUALLY GUILTY of participating in the duping which means that ALL pairs of vine cord sandals should be considered illegal at this point.

I 100% agree!
