Design your own Converse - not such a good deal after all......

The white canvas, rubber toed ones like you used to wear at school, are the ones that are now £30. The genuine Converse ones are a lot more. Doesn't sound like any of them are value for money.

I have several pairs, one worn regularly for the last 7 years. Pretty good value for money.

Both my kids wear them, they wash brilliantly and neither have ever worn a pair out.

Excellent value for money.

so why post in the section?
there is a section for just this type of post

Because this is a place to Vent. The OP is annoyed at the fact that they put their prices up, so this is a correct section to post it. Stop backseat modding.

The post was originally made in the grabbit forum. It's been moved here.

I think you owe Custardy an apology.

If the OP wants to post here about it, then why shouldn't he/she? Not everyone uses the other board.

so everything should be posted on one board then surely?
I mean what if someone misses something on a board they don't use?

Seriously, why does it matter if the post is on another board? If the OP wants to post here venting about the increased prices then why shouldn't he/she?

The topic in the Grabbits forum was about the deal, the deal then ended and the OP decided to post here venting about the increased prices. No reason why it should be restricted to that topic.

Ill tell you once again.

The OP posted the vent post in the grabbit forum. As the grabbit forum is the wrong place for a vent it was MOVED from there to here.

Is that clearer?

Actually I removed the part of my sig saying I'm not responsible for what might happen if someone takes my advice

So if the thread was moved from there to here? Why the big deal about it being in the wrong forum?

Whatever. I'm done. Continue backseat modding if you wish.
