Won these babies in the giveaway from FT/Orage. size 27.5. unfortunatly, i think my feet are too wide. im takin them to the shop this week to see what they can do for me. if i cant get them to fit, im gnaa have to let them go. if you are interested, offer up. If i get them too fit ill post up that they arnt for sale anymore.... if FT or Orage see this and have a problem with it, let me know immediatly and ill end the sale of em. soooooo upset that they dont fit right now. id rather make em fit then sell em, but well see what happens.

now thats a legit reason for some hate.

just to note, my rant wasnt directed at anyone in particular, or even just this thread. i just dont understand pickin on snowbladers for snowblading, which happens ferquently here. skiing is better, we know it, they know it, no reason for any hate.

but flippin/claimin or other douchbaggery shall be hated on always

how much would you guys pay for a pair of FT in stores ? would you prefer these ones to any other model ? probably yes, so where's the problem with selling them ? people are actually ready and stoked to buy them ..

if you want retail... sell em on a retail shop. ns b/s/t is for selling your gear and keeping it in the comunity, hook an nser up with em 350 is a legit price for sure there dope! but expecting to get retail on NS is rediculous

I know what you mean, but the point I'm making, is that people are ready to buy them at his price, why would he sell them for cheaper ? It would be stupid, no ?

shops sell them for 600 becuse they buy them for 300. they need to make a profit but wont go crazy on the price..
if shops got them for free i highly doubt they would even attempt to sell for 600 they would sell for 300 and make a huge profit

hahaha, well we won't argue through NS, we both have our opinion. But what if I was coming to you saying I want to buy your jacket (for example) for 1000$ (let's exagerate).

Would you say no ? Probably not, because you'd have somebody interested in your jacket and willing to pay a this price.

These boots are rare, people wants them, it's a bit greedy from him HAVING 500$ in mind, YES ! but still, I'm pretty sure he'll get offers around that price, then he will sell them. I know shops pays around 300$ for them, but at the end, you're still paying 500$ for them !!!

Maybe YOU'RE not interested (and I'm not too) but other people will for sure.

Anyway

Why ? they still could sell them for 600$, a business is a business, and it is on this earth for money. They sale at prices they're making a certain amount of profit (to stay open, so profitable) and at the same time, at prices the consumer will buy. They'd probably sell them for 600$ and make way more profit.

I'm do not invent anything, that's only the way it is

People will pay $145+ for crowbars, $729 for tanner hall boots (not even limited edition), and so on.....


But there are only 19 other pairs of these boots in the entire world. If you are a true baller out on a mission to have the steeziest outfit, and you fuckin see these black and orange boots and are sold on them at no matter what price then you should by all means be able to spend $500 on a pair of boots and thats fine. Hell spend $800 or 1000 cause they are super rare for all I care.

The point here is he doesn't have to hook someone up. These boots retail for $500 plus. There is no obligation for him. Anything below what a store sells the regular model for is a hook up, and you know this is NS so no ones gonna pay even close to MSRP.

Skiing isn't cheap, let the kid milk the $ from his prize if he wants. The point is I don't have to buy them, and he isn't obligated to hook someone up because he won them.

He could actually be taxed on these boots also.

These are expensive boots, and 1 of 20.

That makes them a collectors item. The full tilt boot sells for north of 5 bills. The t-hall's sell for north of 7 bills. why shouldn't this kid expect to get 5 bills for a super rare high end boot?

by the way the dalbello il moro isnt a tanner hall pro model its the boot he uses. just cuz he uses it doesnt mean its his pro model. like simon dumont and the salomon spk pro. its not his pro model. and so what those boots arent even that good looking. just cuz they r orage and full tilt doesnt mean it so specail. probally next year they will do the same thing. and how do u know that there r only 20 pairs in the world. just cuz they said they r giving out 20 pairs doesnt mean there r ONLY 20 pairs there could be more

pretty cynical view there.

to be fair these are new boots, rare boots and rad boots. there is no reason they should go for less then retail just because they got delivered to one dude before hand and then he sends them to you.

Actually, because they are Full Tilt and Orage they ARE so special. They are the warmest, best fitting, easiest to put on, most loved boot on the market right now. And yes, there are only 20 pairs, they only made them for this contest and that's it.

So you wrong in every way.

People are freaking out cause this kid is/was trying to made a profit off some boots he won. So what? I would do the same and so would a lot of other NSers. In fact it would be pretty stupid if he sold these for anything less than retail.

that skiboard video sucks. i might be hating, but yall look like a bunch of rollerbladers in 1994.
i should know, i been rollerblading since 92 lol

skiers look way more solid, not saying skiboards could not be that solid. but from what i have seen, i side with skiing so far. borja fernandez kills shit on skiboards and skis, peep his shit.
http://www.vimeo.com/5873673


so back to the subject of this thread, whats the word with these boots?
still for sale? what's the asking price? i am serious unlike all these other jokers let me know the word.
word.
