thanks for replying! I guess what might be happening is people are finding new pairs around at goodwills and such and realizing their worth something for being so rare and selling them off. Or it could be a collection, but that would be weird in multiple sizes.

I wasn't planning to get the Sylons--I really want the red or yellow scorchers but Im too excited to start soaping that I really can't wait for them to pop up--plus especially with the red ones theyll go for way more than I want to buy.

Odd, must have been a manufacturing error. Either that or just use of cheap materials.

I decided to give those blue size 8 scorchers a go, ended up being $90 with shipping, but seeing as those models go for much more I think its a steal. Especially since whats available from Rawk.com will be at the lowest 70 dollars, paying 20 more to get the model I want the most doesn't seem like a loss.

I was thinking of getting a pair of white/grey Boltars for a more heavy duty model. I'll only use the scorchers on rails--with the plates they have they dont look like they would do very well on curbs.

Is that where the $500 cleans came from?

Thats possible that guy is trying to gyp people, but since rawk had no scorcher models I went with that ebay seller. Because I live in the US the GBP to US conversions makes it just as expensive to buy from rawk.

I think there actually might be a few guys trying to sell soaps for crazy prices. Like those turntables listed for 199. If they were in blue and in my size I'd pay no more than 90 for them.

yeah there is, theyre the orange/grey color in a size 9 but they're listed for a whopping 199.99. you can make an offer but with the price set that high I doubt they'd take much less than what theyre asking for. I guess its worth a shot if you really want em.

Sounds good! Damn being size 13 that must be hard to find shoes, I'm sorry man :/

just got these scorchers in the mail!!! they're beautiful, and somehow a 8 mens fits me perfectly. the plates seem crazy quick. i want to try em out but im way too afraid ill break my face so im going to wait until i get a practice rail.

thanks but I already have a size 14 now that I got from Australia.
and that's what I expected from speedster plates. how do you think they got that name? they're always crazy fast. anyway, soaps are always slower on wood so you can grind that safely. trust me.

no problem.
