Gear Whores, what do you gearwhore the most?

Recommended Posts

Umm...lets see...everything. I don't tend to collect different items at once though(like owning several pairs of gloves at one time). If a new pair of gloves, protective, etc. comes out that I like...I get it and then sell my old equip.

If I absolutely love something, I'll keep it and get a new one of it though(such as my stealths and rbk helmets i have used for a while...)

I don't whore on much, but I do love helmets and cages. I like to try out different buckets and cages, trying to get the perfect combo. I think I've settled on an NBH 4500 and a white Jofa FM480.

I collect anything hockey-related though. Bobbleheads, t-shirts, hats, jerseys, etc.

Pants, I seem to always be able to come up with a really good justification to try a new pair of pants. That and my pet peeve is guys with ripped up pants that look more like hockey skirts than hockey pants.

I personally gearwhore everything. Sounds quite weird, but im always looking for stuff which is high quality/top of the line which i _could_ snag for a nice price.

The only thing that I can't not talk myself out of is cheap and in good condition gloves. But then again I got my one90s new for $90, my in good condition used eagle x-50s for $45 shipped and my used twice TPS HGT Pros(in my teams color) for $50 shipped... Who can say no to that?

SORRY. But thanks.

I completely forgot facial protection. I have 2 black fm480s, an 8500, an 8000, a HS22 pro wave and made a "bid" on an Oakley combo on here. Why I need 6 face guards when I have 3 helmets is beyond me.

Visors seem to be my weakness. Between me wanting to try new visors and people breaking them on me, I think Ive had 6 visors in the last year...

Itech HS22 Pro Wave

Itech HS22 Aviator (Tinted)

2 x Oakley Pro Straight

Hedjuk H22 Straight Cut Clone

and Itech Concept II Full Face Mask.

Ive also had 5 helmets in this space of time as well...

Reebok 8k

CCM 692

and 3 Bauer 4500's (Two black and one white)

I got these gloves from Perani's on closeout in 97 for $60. They have a tackified palm. the gloves were custom for Brett Hull. His name is in ink on the side roll. This was during his Easton and Rawlings years.

I'm starting to think I'm over the gearwhore stage.

I am, it's evolved into just not throwing away old stuff for me.

If that's the case...let me know when more jerseys are going...I'm whoring that way right now.

I'll PM you a list when I get the time. This month should be slower for me and I should have time to take on a couple things that I've been letting slide.

You say you feel like a girl? Maybe it's the avatar that says "Fruity Cheerio's" that may have somthing to do with it.
