Thats cool, no trickery here. Just wanted to get an idea of what was going on. The name is just laziness, or lack of imagination at the time, never changed it.huntersthompson said:

Ah I see. I would have loved this deck. Checked the site a few hours earlier but missed the psst. When it came to shipping I would probably have been out of the game though. It has made a good prize for one lucky competition winner this month though.SHZA said:

Ergo you're (or as the original post said...your) bummed....cp3iverson said:Lol i missed the fun
Whoops...I forgot that we are on the Forum....I should have said "Ergo your (you're) gutted"....that feels better..Post edited by huntersthompson on0 -
Your argument is flawed because you assume if I didn't buy it then the "next in line" person is someone who wanted it. You don't know who would have gotten it, it very well could have gone to someone who would put it on Ebay!elvistheking44 said:....The trade bait purchase sucks ass for the person who was next in line only to miss out to someone who has no intention of keeping it.

If anyone grabbed one and has buyer’s remorse, I have a 7-year-old son who is begging for his first skateboard. I’d love to buy one for him.He and I listen to a lot of music (PJ, Elton John, MMJ, BOH are his favs) and I this would mean a lot to him to get to ride a PJ board.Thanks!this city is so filthy, like my mind in ways0

of course it is. all you are doing is substituting stupid amounts of money for an item you actually want for an item you don't want and someone else did.whoyouare72 said:

his argument is not flawed. he is not speaking just to you. he's speaking to all trading flippers.
if you are buying an item you don't plan on keeping because you want to trade up = flipping. it's not a difficult concept. currency isn't just cash. i've done it. i'm not proud of it, and don't do it anymore. cause i felt like a dick after.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -
haha, that's like someone who stole something asking to be rewarded for returning it when they couldn't sell it on the street.whoyouare72 said:cp3iverson said:.....Im just glad that fans trading it aren't selling it for ridiculous amounts.

grab a beat up old board, spray paint, throw some stickers on it. He will love it. Get him on that sucker all padded up, blast a little b boys and let it happen.0

The sale page says not for resale. It says nothing about trades. The flaw in the argument is the assumption that the next person in line is a pure-hearted soul who is going to use the board until it wears out and would never dream of flipping it or trading it for something else. In reality, it would just be another flipper. The only way it wouldn't is if all the flippers decided to stop flipping, which is never going to happen.HughFreakingDillon said:

There's no need to feel like a Richard for making trades. This is all frivolous junk. It's not like you're taking food off someone's table. No grown man needs a skateboard with koala bears or a viewfinder. If they need to have it that bad, stop crying about the missed drop and go buy one on ebay.0 -
haha. resale or trading are the same damn thing. like i said. all you are doing is substituting one currency (money) for another (goods). there is no flaw in the argument. if the flaw is "well someone else will do it" then all laws go out the window too. that is the weakest ass argument i've heard. sounds like something a 5 year old would say. "but (my sibling) did it first!). so dumb.SHZA said:

your last paragraph reeks of hypocrisy. if the person who is buying it just to trade it for something they want, then THEY should stop crying about the missed item they wanted and go buy one on ebay. see how that works?By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -
You keep equating a legitimate purchase with something illegal. It's not. You just don't like it.HughFreakingDillon said:

It's not hypocritical at all. The trader isn't crying about the missed item. They understand how the game works and are taking action. Paying the cash price if you can acquire the trade bait for $300 less is just dumb.0 -
i never equated a legitimate purchase with something illegal. i said the idea that "someone else will do it" is the same argument a criminal could use. if i equated anything, it's that trading flippers use juvenile reasoning and apply it to what they are doing.SHZA said:

flipping for money isn't illegal.
flipping for trade bait isn't illegal.
both are being a shitty human.
