Heads up....(NO LIVE AUCTIONS!)

No auction links, no eBay names, nothing that gives up our hard work to lurkers.

Clear?

Whewwwww, that's a pretty stiff guideline. Yup, it's clear for sure. But as I scrolled back through pages of this thread to see how others had posted "heads up" replies, there's plenty of instances of "UK8.5 35th Perfed on the bay" or "PM me about BAPEs on the bay" etc etc etc. So even on these posts, there's no links, no mention of ebay names, but definitely leading statements that there's something of interest on the 'bay for someone willing to search every country's ebay site to find that shoe. Ok. I got it. I rarely post on this thread anyway, so it figures when I do I violate a rule that had become lax over the past months. So, "heads up" for sales at stores and online codes and then it's first come first serve on the remaining stock! I understand the "lurker" consideration. I saw my post as a positive thing to point someone in the direction of some pretty cool stuff that of course I wasn't lurking to purchase. Oh well.

Non rocket related science right there^.

It was decided years ago that on matters of rarity, fuck it, deepest pocket wins.
You want to make a pact with another seller over a certain pair, go right ahead but childish shit like "I saw them first" is best left behind in the playground at the age of 10.
You can't "first dibs" a pair when Johnny Drag Knuckles has been after them since before you even knew you just had to have every pair of Superstars that ever existed even though you had a wardrobe full of noikes.
If you know of a deal, post the details of the shoe and the sizes or whatever and ask for pms.
Yes, it can be a ballache but karma can be a hottie as well as a bitch.
Lurkers deserve fuck all cos they contribute fuck all.
Make sure that's all you give them!

Okay,

They're very nice looking, but I'm no Pro Mod guy
