Interest Check on Samurai S0500XX W32

[Raw Selvedge]

I ordered a pair of Samurai S0500XX W32 from Take5 in Hong Kong when I was there and am getting them brought over to me in Australia by a relative soon. I'm sort of having second thoughts on them now, I'm getting into Levi's Fenom's now and I'm looking for a pair of Fenom Gold Package 505 in either Rinse or Rock-Used III. Anyways, I'm just checking to see if anyone would be interested in them when I receive them. I got Take5 to chainstitch hem them to have an outseam of 42.5 inches coz that's how they measure them there. So I don't know what the inseam length is but I will find out when they arrive. I'm looking for around $300 for them. Anyone interested?

[Raw Selvedge]

No one interested? How about $300 shipped worldwide.

[Raw Selvedge]

Is the price too high or is everyone just planning on getting the S0510XX now? I thought these were a popular pair of jeans around here.

[2000dB]

Well, considering people can get them cheaper through me or stores like BIG, I guess you could say the price is too high.

[Raw Selvedge]

Really? Man I paid HK$2380 for these. How much are you charging for them? And how much are they at Big?

[2000dB]

I charge 280$ shipped and I think BIG is 285$ (not sure if that includes shipping)...

[Raw Selvedge]

O well, I may aswell keep them. Don't want to make a big loss. Are these still available in stores though? I thought they were pretty hard to get these days.

[2000dB]

They are very available. Most stores still have all sizes in stock.

Don't worry, you'll like them and they'll outlast your fenom phase.

Raw, i'm taking a big hit on my Ironhearts as well. With advances like 2000db, BiG, and Self Edge carrying these jeans, people can't sell them for what they got them for.

[greentea]

yeah automatic -100$ is your best bet.

[Raw Selvedge]

Still available and will be shipped from Australia and not Japan. These must be hard to get now that they can't be shipped out of Japan.

Actually, it hasn't affected the shipping service in Japan / customs

Damn, my uncle didn't have enough room for these in his luggage so it looks like I'll have to wait until February for one of my cousins to come to Australia and bring the jeans with them.

[Raw Selvedge]

Received the jeans. They are the limited edition ones with an upside down "A". The serial number is #196. The outseam is 42.5 inches and the inseam is around 32 to 32.5 inches. Brand new with tags, I was actually surprized that they have the upside down "A" and serial number so I'm thinking about keeping them but I might sell them if theres interest in them.

tailored before a hot soak?

have fun with those...

[Raw Selvedge]

I had to get them chainstitch hemmed by Take5 first coz I dunno where I can get chainstitching done in Melbourne. These jeans have a pretty high rise so a 32 inch inseam feels more like 33 or 34 inches. I had them hemmed 2 to 2.5 inches longer so they should be alright.
