you could sell your last "feet thing" to my boyfriend "minty fresh" on here, cause he lost 1 of them.

and you could get those "little feet thing (four of them) off of e-bay for like 2 bucks.

Actually someone does sell replacements ... I don't recall whom ... MacRescue?

Price wasn't too bad .. but those black spongy things from some guy in Hawaii off eBay work well tom in my experience.

Go to your local apple store, and they will replace them. Also, if you call apple on the phone (provided you have applcare) they will send you new ones. I've lost 2 off of my 12" and they have been replaced.

Replace them ASAP.

I waited too long like a idiot slacker and it resulted in a few scratches and scrapes on underbelly. Plus they are too deep to buff out
