Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
those classified sheets are just for the buyers......i think they are really cool and part of the "s" vibe and i treat them more as a press release....they used to come boxed with the shoes if you remember...so its not so much an actual CAD or design sheet... if im not supposed to use it, then oops, because that made the rounds rather quickly didnt it.
Either way i think the sell sheet completes the series and is fun to have...no one would have had that quote from TET on their blogs if i didnt post it up initially...so i hope i complimented the release more than anything...
cheers

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
I don't think this thread should involve making sales/offers. Just a thought guys. Everyone here is trying to find their pair at a shop. Ebay's going to get flooded with these and resellers are already on top of these.

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
yes agreed 100%: please keep this thread clean of buy / sell, especially if its at a mark up...thats what the marketplace is for. this page is for information / discussion / enthusiasm only.

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
Here's the thing, I am constantly on both sides of this isle (reseller/internet homie) so I feel like I can offer a unique perspective...
I need my sizes.
Shops are sold out.
On a limited release, like this one clearly is, I am going to have to get my sizes from the reseller market like a lot of you (us).
I get what sizes I can at retail, flip them at going rate, pay going rate for specific sizes I need.
It's a vicious cycle but it is just the reality of the situation on a limited release.
I have been doing this for a long time and it has always been the same. The only difference for me now is that i actually pay retail now that I am not hanging/drinking with local shop owner 2-3x/week haha.
And I pick up for about 5-6 people on any given release by the way. Always have. I have the luxury of being "the guy" in my circle.
Just food for thought gentlemen, before we all go burning "resellers" at the stake!

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
^ understand your point and the work you put in to be able to get the pair you need. You offer great info on the board as well....just saying keep the selling in the marketplace so it doesnt clutter up this thread those guys are not gearing it at you (i hope)....more so the dudes with one post, and its only to sell, above retail...that needs to go to marketplace....

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
Totally agree with that... and you're absolutely right. My post was only to share my perspective. Not because I was feeling targeted.

Re: Looks like we've got new Bones
Not sure how you mean exactly but 2 thoughts I have on that..
Yes, absolutely. I love talking with shop employees, fellow enthusiasts and owners while in pursuit for hot items. That is probably the only reason I still do what I do, instead of just turning straight to ebay, paying an extra $50-75 and calling it a day. (Which $$-wise actually makes more sense to me at this point in my life anyways) The problem with this release is that it ended up a bit limited, and obviously the demand is high. The strange this is that thankfully a lot of dudes picking them up ARE NOT putting these directly on their feet like I did and wearing them out to the movies. Which makes my life easier. It took me a long time to stock up on Ballistics back when, or even worse J-pack dunks shortly after they were released and overshadowed by the Rayguns hype.
Second, I have a lot of friends who still love a hot sneaker but half zero time to fuck with chasing them down. To them it is incredibly convenient to have a friend like me who doesn't mind helping out. Then, when I need some welding done, my bike tuned up, some new denim or whatever, these friends of mine are happy to help a dude out. In today's economy with the weakening value of the dollar and major inflation everywhere from banks, credit companies and other fee-driven services like Paypal, it is nice to get things you need/want based on trades, favors and friendships!!
