somtimes you just need to spend a little more on clothing for their quality and brand..
im sure the cost of material and machine labour is way less than retail price.. but thats business...

say if you are getting an Air Intake and the pipe is just piece of metal probabaly worth 2 dollar and 10 bucks to bend into form but they retail it over 60 dollar +

Correction, it is a $250 shirt that he is selling for $150.

In all honestly, some people are paying $200 for an Ed Hardy T-shirt. And don't tell me those T-shirts got really popular in Canada first before the US.

Shit, I was watching WWE and saw one of the wrestlers wrestle in Ed Hardy Jeans. Hulk Hogan was wearing Ed Hardy T's in his Hogan knows best reality shows.

Let me be the first to say I'm glad someone else's R&R jeans ripped for no reason. Mine ripped after 2 years and I'm not hard on my clothes. I ripped mine putting them on. I guess I stepped on the inside of them when I pulled up to hard and *RRIIIPPPPP*

Anyways I think a lot of people go through that stage in life. I remember when I was making $14 an hour ($14 dollar baller) and I would spend $400 on a shirt or $300 on a pair of jeans and wouldn't even flinch.

I would do this all the time and try and act baller even though I obviously was not. $14 an hour seems pretty good when you're 18 or whatever but it's not baller at all. Most people's first decent job makes them feel good and they buy a bunch of overpriced shit. Was the quality of the shirts I got okay? They were okay but not superior to shirts 1/10th the price.

Anyway, it was a phase that most younger people go through. I'm not OLD now but getting closer to 30 and I still have some expensive clothes but I'm not stupid with the cash I make because you grow out of it (most people do).

I will admit, my suits and shoes are pricey but I also make a shit load more than $14 an hour. While my clothes are expensive, most of them are for work and I do not have a lot of clothes.

Just remember, next time you see someone with a Gucci bag and they're waiting in line to take the bus, remember where their priorities are.

actually 100 - 250 for a shirt is not that bad

its very common, like my shirts i buy on cliffedge for the limited BAPE stuff i pay

http://www.cliffedge.co.jp/a-bathing...02608-050.html

174$ for that plus shipping and tax some clothing I pay for is about that price range

Its sort of stupid, but some people spend money on their food, or what ever

I just like spending it on my clothing

G 09-17-2009 08:47 AM

150$ is nothing.... I bet thats the costs of hyde's undies

jnesss 09-17-2009 11:22 AM

Other people think a $30,000 Honda is the same quality as a $50,000 BMW or Mercedes. Everyone has their opinion.

Exactly.. This debate is worst than ebay seller sending you a message..
Get over it if you dont want to buy an expensive shirt...

Well, clearly the person DOES want it, but is too cheap to fork out the money so theyre trying to reason with the seller saying its too expensive

But I agree, too expensive for you, why bother

In the end its all a debate for what is

I feel like forwarding this to eBay but I'm going to let it go. Talk about fucked up people.


ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Is It Really Necessary For The Guy To Type Like This? I Mean, It Is Pretty Annoying To Hit The Shift Key So Often You Know.

and well, in his message he states that his children wears "CLOTH" from stores... so I guess maybe they have a huge toga sale in the states somewhere that makes them not want to buy anything from us "Canada's"?

Wow. really, you should send this picture to him

common guys... doesn't anyone here like quality? I'm not necessarily saying the more expensive the clothing is the better quality it is... but a majority of expensive clothing ISS pretty nice..

Reading their emails were even funnier as the stupidity and horrible grammar was out of this world. I mean my grammar isn't by any means good but you really would think at times you were reading an email written by somebody in grade school.

Haha I worked at Top Buyer for ebay. People on there are 100% retarded when it comes to the most trivial of things. They need to find better ways of spending their time. I ended up playing Fieldrunners on my iTouch while they rambled on about feedback they received.
