I am supposed to pick them up tomorrow...if it is not what I think, I will report back. Thanks for all of the input.

I know it can sometimes be a tacky question, but could I politely ask how much he is charging for this? If the boots are replaced before the internals wear then that can be a perfectly acceptable repair. And maybe cost effective.....
