I cannot stand some of the people I sell to. Note to the wise: When you invite someone into your home, the easiest way to guarantee to get the best price and best features is to BE NICE. It absolutely amazes me how many times I go into someones home after they called me, and they treat me like they have no interest in me being there or, even worse, bitch at me about hurrying up or doing something illegal to get them more rebate money from the government. Let me tell you something, there is a little thing we use out there called the "Asshole Surcharge" so don't get upset at me when I jack up your price $500 because you are a total dick. If you're going to be like that while I'm in your home, I can just imagine how you're going to be to us when you forget to do your required preventative maintenance (that we mail you reminders for, by the way) and then we have to charge you $99 to come out and pull out a 75 cent filter you bought from Wal-Mart.

RIP James Gammon. You may be thinking "who in the hell is James Gammon?", but he was the manager in the movie Major League. One of my all time favorite movies and he was so damn dry and funny in it I just loved it.

What is the reason for having certain curves available in Canada and not the US? I thought that I saw somewhere on the catalog that the P10 on maybe the One100 or something else that was available for booking in Canada only.

My first thought on that story was he was buying your stuff to make sure it fit, then trying to get it online for a cheaper price. You said you made some $$ on the refunds, you don't give full refunds or do you charge a restock fee or something?

My custom TotalONE's are in and they should be in my hands on Wednesday! B)

The talent out of Texas and Florida is very similar. The top three HS Football states are Florida, Texas, and California. The next couple are Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and then pretty much everyone else.

While I'm not a big fan of Steigerwald or Errey, I love Mike Lange. Comparing him to Cope is difficult because you comparing Play by Play to Color. Two different job descriptions there. Whether you like them or not, I find it tough to believe anyone can be thought of as worse or more "Homer-ish" than Jack Edwards for the Bruins. He is unbelievably bad.

I hate losing, especially to a team that hasn't won a game yet this season. We beat them earlier 10-4 and I'm on a low level roller team with a bunch of guys (all except me, my buddy, and the goalie) that haven't played competitive puck before (only messed around on the streets). I'm trying to teach these guys and have fun, but its awful hard in situations when guys think were going to walk all over a team. We're not good enough to do that. We walk in, and everyone is talking about when the next game is when we win and how dumb the goalie looks and all this jazz. You can guess, we lose 4-3. Unbelievable. I hate things like this. On another note, this team brings 3 kids that haven't played the alloted games to be allowed in the playoffs, we call them on it, and the only make one kid not able to play, but the other two are. They score 3 of their 4 goals. Even though we totally deserved to lose because nobody outside of the three experienced hockey players tried, its still frustrating to play against guys that shouldn't of been there.

I'm in Sales. I understand that people always think there is some wiggle room and I'm just not that sort of salesman. I tell people that straight up. But when I email a customer and tell him a price is $4500 for product Z, and then he calls me later and asks about a different product (M) and I give him a price of $2500, don't email me later in the night and say you just wanted to double check and make sure that that product Z is quoted at $2500 and you're ready for the item to be delivered at my earliest convenience. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU COPY THE ORIGINAL EMAIL I SENT TO YOU SAYING HOW MUCH PRODUCT Z ORIGINALLY WAS. God I hate people sometimes.

8.5 size. And yes, it is an A6. Those wheels have always been very close together. I'm not sure if I'll really benefit from going to an A7 or not when they come out.

Yeah the mount looks just slightly back on that picture but it is taken at a slight angle. I just skated on them around my office on the tile floor and they feel outstanding. Yep, used regular old t-nuts. I used every mounting whole available on the Sprungs, even the one directly in the back. Figured the more rigid, the better. Now I just need 4 more black rink rats to match and everything will be clutch.

Here is a recent conversion for me. Keith originally mounted a pair of Sprungs on a pair of Vapor IX's that worked wonderfully but were unfortunately a low end skate that just broke down over time with me playing 2 to 3 times a week. I found a great deal at a LHS and picked up a pair of White RBK 9k's for under $250 brand new and decided it would be time to mount up my Sprungs to it. Spent the last 3 days (about 6 hours total) doing measurements and attaching the Sprungs the same way they had been on the Vapors and this is how they've come out.

Excellent. Mind if I ask what you paid plus shipping? Edit - Nevermind you said Easton's.
