New member says hi
#1

Hi all!

I am a new member from Finland where the whole sneaker scene is kind of small or non-existing. On the other hand, I've really got interested in sneakers recently so what would I know. Anyway, in Turku, where I live, it is simply impossible to find any good let alone rare sneakers. That's why I'm quite excited that I've found this site although my main interest lies in other adidas models than the Superstars. I could say I fancy the various tennis shoes more, especially the Forest Hills.

At the moment I've only got a few pairs of sneakers:
Puma Go Court V (brown leather with white/orange sole)
Adidas All Yellow (surprise, surprise: yellow)
Adidas Forest Hills [white with little holes (there must be a good term for that in English) and white sole]
Adidas Forest Hills 72 (gold with brown sole)

Coming up (just bought them over eBay, haven't arrived yet):
Adidas Grand Slam Oki-Ni (light pink/dark grey with white sole)
Adidas Forest Hills (checkered beige with light brown sole)

Next I'd like to buy something that would stand out a bit more, like the Adicolor G4 Stan Smith II Kermits, the Superstar 35th Anniversary Goofys or the green/blue Wilhelm Bungerts. SO if you have any info on where to grab a bargain for any of those in size UK8, I won't mind if you inform me of them. That's about eveything, I hope I don't have to bother people too much with stupid questions. Or as they say, there are no stupid questions, just stupid people. Wink

Thanks mate, just the ones I'm after! The price sounds good, but shipping to Finland is £20. Apparently they get their profit from the shipping costs and not so much from the sneakers. Btw, does anyone have any experience with that shop? I couldn't find anything with the search.

Found another pair on eBay (thanks to MrShoeShotta) but I think the alarm bells should be ringing 'cause the seller has two other pairs for sale also with "unwanted gift" on the description. And when I asked for more pics, the answer wasn't very convincing: "The actual pair look better than this image, brand new in the box never been worn 100% genuine, Sorry do not have any other photos...." Does anyone know are they're fakes on sale or could these be authentic?

And a big hand to everyone for the warm welcome!

I doubt they're fakes.
These didn't sell well when they were in the shops.
