Funny story, I was at the mall with my girlfriend the other day. I was after laces. Fat ones. We walked into foot locker and the guy jumped me like a used car salesman. "What are you looking for?" He asked eagerly. I was half tempted to say "Shoes, dumbass." I refrained. "Superstars" My girlfriend said. The salesman's eyes lit up as he directed me to the wall with supes on it. They were nothing special. Same common colourways. I was just there to get laces. "Anything particular you're looking for?" The salesman asked me. I laughed. I knew I wanted the all black with red stripes. I also knew those were really hard to find, but I told him anyway. He said "Oh, yeah we haven't had those for a while." What he said next was quite possibly the dumbest thing I have ever heard. He said "You know, you could always get these (the all black with white stripes) and just paint the stripes with a sharpie marker." I was so surprised I could barely think. Did he really think that was a good idea? Regardless, I needed laces so I ignored his dumbass comment and made my way to the laces. I bought two pair, one black, one white.
I walked out of there and my girlfried and I had a hearty laugh at his suggestion. Color your supes with a sharpie? Was he fucking serious? What some assholes will say to try to get a sale, I swear.

Anyone else have a funny experience with someone who obviously didn't know they were dealing with a superstar expert?

hey all,
anyone interested in these?
paid a low price for them on ebay, but i'm not going to wear them. just not my style. on a scale of 1 to 5, probably a 2.5. they will need some cleaning for sure. the interchangeable stripes are broken. they are not one continuous piece. this is the stock photo from the ebay listing.

If you are in the USA, $40 including shipping and they are yours.

If outside of the USA, final price will depend on your country.

I have the option to return them, so reply before I return them.

So as my eldest is turning 5 in a few weeks I have to pick out something for him.
Looking for heads up or ideas?
I have seen the new star wars lightsaber http://www.boots.com/en/Star-Wars-Ultima...Lightsaber
and it makes all the right noises and even does that crackle thing when you hit something (OMG). I am so fucking tempted to buy two for his birthday so I can kick his little sith ass.
Anyway any other ideas peoples?
