Well I know they cost a boat load in England to the sum of £130 actually so that is over $200!!!!

But if I can get a bargain I'll hook it up here then :D

They go about $45-55 the ones I've seen from this buy and I am willing to put a $75 bid in + delivery to the guy that buys it on my behalf. Then pay for delivery then add in $15 for that guy.

I'll go with simms but if that doesn't work I'll go with you Darkstar757. Thanks for OFFERING EVERYONE. Thanks a lot :D

Or desperate, which means they are willing to pay top dollar. I love international bidders.

I read your thread title too fast. It looked like the subtitle said "buy someone off ebay and ship to UK Please?"

Ah, that explains it. I didn't read the auction and assumed they were just the latest fashion craze or something.

They are not for fashion. They are purely for lifting.

When you weightlift as oppose to weight train you need the extra hard heel bit. The shoes are raised a bit to help some people with flexibility so they can get in to a deeper squat. But with me and most weightlift guys it ins't a problem but the added hard heel a bonus. You can't Snatch or C&amp;J properly if the heel is 'bouncy' or gives when you go down in a squat. So trainers that are like that are very bad for it.

I already have a pair but ONLY saw that you could get these on ebay for such an amazing price :D In England they are about $220 when converted!

Also the bottom are VERY GRIPPY. All rubber and has a bigger surface area then running shoes. And it is just a bit more specific to my sport. Running shoes are more geared to running. You can use them for bball but they aren't as good as bball shoes. More heel support and better grip for lateral movement.
