That feel when you misread one of the logic game conditions :lol:


Seriously, one of the games had the weirdest language language ever, got it mixed up like 3-4 times. Had to rush on the last game as a result, hopefully my intuition paid off.

Rest of the sections were pretty easy, barely remember them

My point is that people are finding alternative goods, and the selling point is that "It's cheap, and fairly good item" instead of "It's a good item for 'x' amount of dollars".

Brad lately you have been trying to be a smartass but I'm really starting to think you're pretty closed minded. If you get a custom boot made of course you going to want it. It is custom hence specifications are made by the consumer.

Your example again puts price into the context. Instead why don't you save up some money and get something you really want versus "I have 'x' amount of disposal income right now so I'll see what I can buy, now." How many shoes does the regular SF poster have? You telling me you need another pair of shoes now just because it is A) cheaper than what was expected and B) You lowered your expectations and will be content with "xyz", which initially was mostly based on the fact that it is 'x' amount of dollars less now.

GT, there are so many logical pitfalls in that post I feel like I'm taking the LSAT all over again

Honestly though, if I pair of boots can be had for $100 that fill a fairly specific hole in your wardrobe and are of decent quality (regardless of brand association), it seems like a decent shot 9especially considering many members are willing to spend that much on a shirt or gloves or whatever)

I'm sure artishard could afford guidis if he wanted (I'm sure he's got a pair or two :D) so it's not really about "I only have X amount to spend gaiz, ill just settle for these hmmms)

...yeah I bought a pair too lol :laugh:

You all just making excuses.

Whatever floats your boat but just for reference:

HMMMM-->backlash-->meh most of the stuff is crap-->Snowman bought jacket-->General approval of side zips starts trickling down -->VLSI bought pairs to stalk up but is now selling due to poor quality-->50% 50% deal explodes-->Now I got to pick something up

Reedo I'm not sure what the LSAT taught you but I was simply illustrating the goodwill of savings rather than immediate gratification. I wonder how many people here actually have a savings accounts/IRA etc.

How is that custom Temple of Jawnz jacket with the snake skin doing for you Brad? I hope you like it.

So in essence, gettoasty is telling us we are all peasant status (although I own regular MMM side zips, so I must be a baller)

VLSI bought pairs to stalk up but is now selling due to poor quality.


Is that what I did? :eh:

Although this most recent price drop and market saturation is foiling my plans.

I stalked multiple sizes just in case my feet shrink overnight too. Always be prepared.
