No, just a guy trying go assemble a new wardrobe. The peeps in the *designated area for non-intrusive n00b questions* have been very generous and helpful. Still, you just have to lol at the clique-ishness, paranoia, and utter absurdity you and I guess the, uh, Persian bro put on display.

Or: Oh noes! Look out, n00bs -- we've wandered our way into an internet tough guy thread!

Carry on.

I just took pics and measurements of a bunch of stuff I never wear anymore and was excited to make a sale thread and clear closet space only to remember I live in Korea and shipping is probably insane to the point that shipping would cost more than the actual stuff I sell

Yep, was gonna tell you to bring money and I'll take you to either A-land or the actual APC store. Bet you're the same size as me. You should get a pair of the noire color, black with charcoal weft so the fades look cool. APC in Korea is pretty ******* expensive, just a warning. Will cost something like 250k won for a pair.

^ I just looked up the conversion and that's only about a 10% increase over stateside.
The noir is the 'faux black' right? I think I paid around $200 from TBS for them (APC's US site hasn't listed them yet). Great jeans. Eason would dig them I'm sure.

Yeah, they're a little bit more lightweight than the normal denim. Wasn't sure how they'd fade, but they fade pretty quick and it looks cool. At least better looking than black with white weft if you ask me. They do shrink more than expected in the wash though. Was afraid they wouldn't fit me anymore.

I don't see them ANYWHERE online. So not sure what's up with that.

Raws are 250K won, other jeans can be quite a bit more, like 320K for black jeans or washed ones.

Really? Isn't EMS shipping cheaper in Korea
than just about anywhere else in the world?

These sound pretty sick. Anyone know if the SoHo store has them?

Not sure about the official APC store but A-land has raws, black raws like I have, distressed black, and some washed blue that are faded almost white(not listed on the site). All at the same price of 268k. Well there's also the Japanese ones that have some elastic in them that cost more but I don't think anyone wants those. http://www.a-land.co.kr/shop/goods/g....php?brand=161

It's cheap but unless I'm reading things wrong, the cheapest it goes is like 15k won and at that amount if I'm sending a single shirt then there's not really much point in selling it

And the "cheaper" options look to be similarly priced so I don't know what the ****.
