CON SS Jewelery is nice !

[DJI]

any chance of a preview bt?

basics and jewellery are the only things that CON do well in my eyes...

[jcotteri]

I was able to view it up until a couple of months ago, weird :confused:.

haha, didn't even notice. does that mean we win sufu?

nope just means that we have more posts about silly shit and clothings than the japran threak

[DJI]

haha, too true. should rename the thread "Superfuture Random Thoughts Thread - Australia Edition!" .

[034936]

i second the CON preview. They have never really done anything different with the jewelry since the very first season... so in a way that kinda makes me interested to see next seasons offerings.

WTF:confused::confused:

[DJI]

true, the only piece that I really like are from the classic range, sold most of the ones I owned though as the only one I wear often is the bird cuff double bracelet . didn't like all the slogans and black rain/white noise crap they did last season, hoping they have some cleaner designs for next season.

[034936]

ahhh that bracelet.. shit sold out at VG fast, though they did specifically say that they could reorder from that range... maybe i shouldddd...

[jbone]

i remember a while back rob at swt said Gareth was doing alot of work to make SS 10 jewellery special and that's why there was nothing new from the AW range... interested to see

[jbone]

meant to say no real new designs

[DJI]

haha, I bought one of the bracelets from VG . very easy to wear as it's quite light, supercheap at $70 too .

Gareth definitely is at his strongest as a jewellery designer.

the work experience boy slips it through

[btbam]

The collection pieces are differant to the past jewelery they have done. Im pretty impressed but i have to have a better look, only had a glace!

[melvin7]

does assin ever go on sale?

i just checked their online store and they have the stressed ann d boots in size 39.. and its still going for $1,360

just wondering if their in store prices is diff?

[jcotteri]

i believe they are one and the same

[James Vincent]

Asked oki-ni to mark down the the value of the RO sneakers to what i actually paid, which was less than $1000. But they didn't and i got hit with customs today $350 or something.

So there goes the weeks budget.

I've had that happen before, just mention to the courier that you want to lodge an appeal, then talk to Oki-Ni and get them to send you a copy of a corrected invoice (i.e. one that displays the sale value), maybe the credit card transaction on a statement too?

You have to pay the duties up front to clear the goods, but they'll reimburse you (after deducting an administration fee...)

[James Vincent]

Yeah everything worked perfect, they took my australian CC's and put the order through, then kept the cash, didnt send the items and denied they took the money!

angry

That's fucking crazy... but I don't think you'll have trouble getting your bank to fight it for you. Just get eLuxury to confirm in writing that the order was not processed.

Don't mean to run salt in the wound, but next time, talk to:

xcoldricex

http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/member.php?u=993

He'll do your eLuxury transaction and mark the value appropriately for import into Aus, for a nominal fee.

[btbam]

Yeah i thought it was too good to be true but its all good! ill get the cash back.

Hey james. Buffalo Leather? Lots of it let me know

[ajax]

hey DJI, probably cant view e-luxury cos it's no longer got a " - " .. it's just eluxury

also, the julius MA leather is nice.. but too plain i think, it might seem awkward, cos the zip is only just off centre.. if you know what i mean?? but for the price it's great

how much do you think the red rider is going to go for retail?

[nufish]

are we still talking about Obscur custom order??? xl would fit me fine...

btw bt i emailed you my details for my order (v&v rider and obscur leather shirt) last week. hit me back so i could send you the deposit.

[DJI]

does assin ever go on sale?

i just checked their online store and they have the stressed ann d boots in size 39.. and its still going for $1,360

just wondering if their in store prices is diff?

assin goes on sale in store long before the prices are reflected online. those boots are still at full retail, I guess they'd drop to 30% off when current season ann arrives. still my favourite ann boots, such a distinct shape and the waxed distressing and fat waxed laces really set it off .

A I tried both man, neither work . the rider should be about 178K yen, Julius pricing is very consistent. hmm, you might be right about the MA leather been to plain, maybe too clean to work with the usual long tees, jeans and boots that I wear? should I wait for something with grungier leather and a more aggressive design? perhaps I should just wait for more shots of it worn, I already missed the boat on the vibe nagano pre-order...

great to hear we have another person interested nufish , hoping to hear good news from you bt .

[btbam]

Con Shoes and bags arriving in 2.5 hours. Will try to take photos straight away.

[50_lions]

i look forward to seeing them bt! I sent you a supermessage about the con hi tops but i gather that shit don't get to you sometimes.

I'll wait for the photos to persuade me once more. May even be interested in a bag, too.

[Ivans On High]

bt, sent you a PM, but your box is probably full (tee hee).

I had a look on VG, and really like the rectangle bag - does it come in black also? if so, hold one for me!

[50_lions]

Oh and D, Although i'm a fan of the MA shots I feel they did this particular garment a disservice, I can't actually see it in a movable situation... looks more like a mould than a comfy jacket.

[DJI]

some shots of it in action 50 :

gah, A's words have put me in 2 minds about it again. what should I do???

[Tyro1]

cop it. Why you worried about the simplicity D, shit is MINIMAL, like what ever the MA stands for... that's the whole philosophy of the sub label, right? You snnoze too long and you going to miss it, and it's not like you going to see this thing pop up on sufu, SZ or even Y! that often afterwards right? If you really need to resell after you receive, based on the availability of MA, the standard price of Julius leathers on Sufu, SZ, etc this thing probably has a lower resell loss than most.

You never regret the things you did buy, only the things you didn't.
