Yeah I hate giving my money to those guys but they have come down a lot. I was bidding 1000+ and got outbid on five different pairs. I almost gave up then suddenly I got one for 800. There are still a load on there going unsold, you might get lucky.

Congrats. One more real fan will have a pair. That's good to know.

Whether a real fan lets them sit in a box or someone else does it really is stupid in my opinion. Wish people would just wear them to play tennis in like they were designed for.

Still love those Vapor 8 from Cincinnati '11, and the limited Vapor VI from the USO '09.

The joys of spending money on things we don't need cannot be underestimated. Ask any woman.

PS: The RF287 was designed to be a collectible.

^^^ I hope he doesnt... 300 bucks for a pair of tennis shoes with no warranty?? if they were mass production shoes then fine, playing in them is nbd, but when only 287 of them are made, I'll be heart broken to see one on someone's feet on teh court..

Probably not, I have other pairs of Vapor 9's for that (not that I play much these days anyway). I got them as a collectible.

If I do wear them on court, I'll post pix in this thread.

Black ones in the front (V5 I think?) were the best! My brother owned a few and still has 2 pairs in the box!

If you have enough shoes in rotation your not going to tear them up for a very long time. Unless of course your a serious toe dragger, even then it would take a while. If I had enough money to waste $800 on one pair of kicks I certainly wouldn't be worried about taking them for a spin every once in a while. Different strokes I guess.
