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

So you've only just started collecting, but got Bape's and 22 pairs from the 35th??

Splurge on ebay much?

Well I say "just" got into it, its been just over a year I would say but Im guessing a lot of you guys have been doing it a lot longer.

And Yes, I do splurge on ebay,A LOT!, lol


Think I may of paid over the odds for the APE Stars aswell

Welcome to SSDB Darren
enjoy your stay ..

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 Darren, can't wait to see your collection, do you wear any of them??

Im an 8 and they are white! YOU ARE WRONG!!!!!!

How is buying something quickly sad?

Cracky,

Yeah I do wear a few pairs but only ones I have doubles of, 1 to wear and 1 to keep.

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??

And how cheaply are you willing to sell them to me if you don't mind me asking?

£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!

Not bad then really when flightclubla have them for sale at $1100 or something.Just hope they are real
Look forward to seeing the rest of your collection

They are.
