Just got the email blast from Sneaker Freaker. In it, there's an interview with Nein. Here's an excerpt:
Let's talk about the samples. It's hilarious that when you posted your NBHD Consortiums on SuperstarDB.com you got flamed because so many heads thought you had fakes in your collection - you schooled them hard! How much of your collection is dedicated to samples and designs that never make it to store shelves?
I'm proud to be a part of SSDB. There are so many senior collectors on there and I learn a lot from all of them. I don't school them; I just inform them about sneakers that I've never seen on their site before. Getting samples does not make me a sample hunter. It is purely a matter of luck that I get samples, because in Indonesia, it is hard enough to grab any sneakers I want. I dedicate myself to the trefoil, not to samples
