My name is Darren Im from Wolverhampton in the UK.
Only just started getting into collecting Superstars. I got 1 pair BAPE Superstars and 22 pairs from the 35th aniversary collection along with a 35th superstar record bag.
Joined here so I can find out a bit more about them and where to get hold of other trainers aswell.
Cheers

Hi Darren & welcome to ssdb!
Tell us a lil more about yourself and post some pics of your collection into the members collection thread.

Well,
I work in a music studio as a sound engineer, have done for the past few months after losing my job as a manager in a department store (booooo), probably a blessing in disguise, lol. I also DJ on weekends playing House and Garage music.
Most of my collection are in storage, only pairs I have here at the moment are ones that I wear from day to day, will post pics of them, but they have seen better days, lol.
As I said, I have only just got into collecting superstar related product and no doubt I have paid over the odds for some of it, not knowing what is worth, but at the end of the day I like it.
Dont know what else to say really, lol, kinda put me on the spot, lol

Got a feeling you're a 10 and the Bape's are black !
Tell me I'm wrong.
Welcome though Darren and slow down.
Buying lots of trainers quickly is a bit sad and reeks of desperation.

Welcome to ssdb m8
Personally i can't see the point in owning 2 of everything not to mention the expense but each to there own.
How much did the ape's cost ya if you don't mind me asking??
RE: Easy peeps -
cracky - 16-03-09
And how cheaply are you willing to sell them to me if you don't mind me asking?
RE: Easy peeps -
mr.pure - 16-03-09
£410 would be my guess.
Just is. Sad, that is. And desperate.
Not you, just people who do that when they start getting into a scene.

I wouldnt normally buy 2 pairs but I had to be able to wear them, I loved them that much, so I kept them fresh in the box until I found other pairs for a resonable price.
As for the Super Ape Stars, I got them for around £400. Probabl got ripped off tbh, lol.
Cracky. you can have them for a fiver!
