No, I have a friend in Japan who has connections and he sold them to me for a bit cheaper than it is/was online. I know Cliffedge carries a pair in a US size 9 for $2, 200. I got mine for about $1, 900 including shipping, which is cheap if you consider the fact that there aren't very many pairs left in stock. Overpriced? Yes. But it's worth it when you're a avid collector like me. People make a lot of purchases that I think are a waste of money... like car parts and certain toys/gadgets. You don't need any of that stuff, you just buy them 'cause you like it.
shit son. that pair of leather that wraps your feet could have been a macbook pro, a full set of rims and tires, a 52 inch sony bravia, a set of 7.1 speaker system, a fully loaded i7 rig, a new wardrobe, like 19 pair of shoes lol but yea, you're right. we spend money on shit we don't "need" lol *cough*rth*cough* :biggthumpup::biggthumpup::biggthumpup: nice. i get 2 of those a day. (actually, up until yesterday that is. no more. im going to die from over consumption of caps)
the XX's are definitely givin me the Original Fake vibe, but the colors suggest Xbox to me hahahaha I gotta be honest though man, i thought those would be 400 dollars max... 1900 seems unreasonable for a pair of kicks. I can think of a great many other things i would spend 1900 on and man, cliffedge has some awesome selection of bapes, 300 is not unreasonable for some original kicks, but they only come in size 10, and atm i'm wearing size 11 dunks, im not sure if 10's would even fit me and 300 dollars is too much to risk.
saw those at costco, seems quite promising... if i could get a 3 terabyte version of that, it would save me some serious power from running my computer 24/7
Man that's a lot. 2 small ones everyday would be alright... hope you don't get the large or x-large. Those are gigantic. Large I couldn't even finish when I bought it.
medium ones >.< anyways, im cutting down on those. no more ice caps. my IBM timmies don't sell iced coffees... i would get those instead..
thas true.. but I guess I jus never looked at shoes as collectible.. even tho there are people who do.. that or they flip the hell out of them... but I'd much rather get a companion than the shoes.. lmao.. I forgot about my pic before I made the posts.. <--- although I'm not a huge kaws fanatic..
lol, you into toys, too? I'm guessing you're a fan of Gloomy and Qee. I thought I saw you post pictures, but I didn't think you were a collector. I was actually going to get the no future metal companion, but it sold out so fast everywhere. So I got these Original Fake x Medicom Bearbricks instead. I'm thinking about adding the black dissected Kaws x Medicom Companion to my collection, too.
thas a nice lil collection... I actually don't have bearbricks or qees.. yea the metal companion cost just as much as the shoes.. theres a metallic version too.. but didn't bother looking for..
Thanks phoenixgirl! When I saw you post your flats I thought 'Hey, they're a little siimilar to mine.' not exactly... but maybe it's the holes in the flats?
