Actually, no, it was perfect. (We had a couple of situations in which someone wasn't using the Multi-Quote option.)

I mean, do they feel high-end?

Added shorts - the UA ones have pockets, and a cheaper option. Sweatpants, same deal. It looks like they're running a special on the UA fleece hoody right now - it's on sale.

I’m currently out of town and can’t add anything from my phone. I’ll put it up on Friday.

There is a block on the forums page that is permanent. Looks like there's a 10% coupon code for first-time buyers.

What we can do is: Send me a PM and you can use me as the shipping address. I'll get you a total to France and ship it out.

Under our current structure, an app doesn't make sense; the site navigates well enough on mobile devices. Wrapping a skin around that doesn't really make financial sense.

Another thing that is in the pipeline. We will try to get some Q&As going in the chat room again.

I've been approached with this before. I think you'll see me doing more of these, either as a guest or starting one up, this year.

If it's something that would require that, sure. Chances are I wouldn't have to.

Adam - we've done that before in the past, and even did with Winterfest this past winter. I'd love to do more of it, but sometimes it gets tricky because it depends on the manufacturer. If I can deal directly with them it works out. Some won't because we're not a dealer.

Zach - This isn't the first time I've been asked about this. We'll talk.

Keep it up - there's some good ideas flowing here.

We have one of those. I'll add you.

Possible, but I would have to have an agreement with a manufacturer and/or retailer to do something like that. The benefit must be mutual.

The issue is that since everything has shifted up 3 months, Springtime is no longer the time that products come out. You'll start seeing more discussions starting next month. The branded stuff worries me. I just added a $15 scarf and the reception hasn't been great. I'd love to put more stuff out there but it doesn't seem that people are buying it. I'm still sitting on a significant amount of hats, and those were ordered 6 years ago. Chippa answered that question better. Screengrabs are acceptable and normally go in the Gear Sightings threads. As far as hosting pictures is concerned, we have a plan for that - it would be a paid option, though. It has to be because I would have to pay for more disk space to be able to host those. So, if that is something that the members would be interested in, we can present that option. That must be your computer.

We have one in the General Hockey Discussions. http://modsquadhockey.com/forums/index.php?/forum/81-hockey-rink-amp-shop-locator/

Those look to be the lower-end model they were supposed to come out with the 2/M8. I saw the next evolution of the skate, and it wasn't named Mako. @NiCnoK what's the model on the top of the tongue say?

If I didn't have to handle all of the social media stuff for MSH, I would've been done with FB a long time ago. I don't put anything on there; much to the ire of my wife, but I stopped that practice back in 2013 when my employer was following me on all of the platforms.

ROH. Ty can answer the question re: FBV but as of now, no go.

Just a shallow Spinner. I have a set (thanks, @Tyler55!) but I'd need something pretty flat, which I don't currently have. And the new Prosharp AS2001 can't clamp it at the moment.

Twice

An old adage comes to mind: Garbage in, garbage out. Here's the issue; irrespective of brand, the factory is relying on accurate scans to make skates properly, as they aren't doing the scans or the fittings themselves. This is the same issue that we had before scans; when we had a handful of skilled fitters who never had any issues with anything they submitted, but would hear the nightmares of those shops and reps who just submitted length and width, max stiffness and a quadruple thickness felt tongue with 2" length, because, you know you need that flop (yes, I know there's no such thing as a quadruple thick felt tongue, but I'm sure someone would've ordered it if it were offered.) Now that it is open to a vast majority of stores and employees, more problems will arise. And I'm not going to get into it about who does it best; I think you can achieve the best results for your customer with enough knowledge and communication with the factory. And I'm sorry, but being able to wave an iPad around or herd someone onto the Bauer scanner does not make you a skilled fitter. You're looking for other things. I would get back to my customer 2 days with the final spec sheet after doing the fitting. Why did I do that? Because you learn from every fitting you've ever done. And I felt that a 2nd look a day later was important, because there may be something that I had overlooked when I did the fitting, and I could draw from the previous fittings I had done to see if there was a different or better solution. In all of the years I had fitted customs, I had only one remake, which was when a customer wanted something I didn't recommend (oversized toecap which he insisted he needed.) And even then, I waived the relasting fee the store was charged. While I think True is trying to rectify the problem, at some point they should've asked the store what happened there. I do feel that stuffing the toe box with foam wasn't the right choice; that holder size isn't going to shrink by itself. Perhaps another scan and traditional measurements would've solved the problem. The fact that the shop didn't question it immediately just screams inexperience.
