method9455 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) So are you going to buy the board or not? I haven't paid for a snowboard or snowboard gear since 1991. What do I know about pricing them? Not a whole lot. What I do know, is that there is no other board I would rather be riding. Could I interest you in some mark viii gear or perhaps an audex coat. Make me an offer shop boy!!! Shit 18 years getting free stuff from the industry and you still ride crappy boards? Get some lessons! And I was never interested in your board, I was just making sure you don't steal any money from PASR members. Edited November 4, 2009 by Kevin. Quote

And I was never interested in your board, I was just making sure you don't steal any money from PASR members. Thanks Kevin for your help. Would you like me to send you a care package for your great insight? I have new stuff coming in on Tuesday. Let me know what size you are, or I'll just send you some global team burton stickers at the very least. Let me know. Thanks again. I had no idea that my boards for all these years were "crappy". I guess i'll refuse any vapors in the near future, and head to your shop so you can set me up with what I need to go bigger in the pipe and park. Thank you! Quote
method9455 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 Whatever man, my goal is to help people. I did that through teaching people directly and I did that through helping people get the right gear back when I worked in a shop. I have sold hundreds of boards, bindings, skis, boots of both kinds etc. I am satisfied that I always advised in good faith for what was right for the person after I did my best to figure out what they were trying to do and what their skill was. I like to think I helped a lot of people in that time with everything from lessons to quick tips in the store to info on where to go on a trip. I know a lot of people came back and asked for me so I must have been doing something right. Today I do product design on things that overlap with a lot of the ski/snowboard technology and I am in a lot of discussions on engineering, marketing, and business. I can back up every one of my points I made about the Vapor with a set of facts - from Burton's own catalog ratings and guys like Terje and Muller picking the T6 over the Vapor to my experience riding them, or some opinions that make logical business or engineering sense. I can tell you don't give a shit about any of that and just want to make some extra bucks off an unsuspecting buyer. All you have said really is that you are great at snowboarding and we all suck so you therefore know more than us about the boards. Nobody cares. You might be better than anyone else here - there are still plenty of people better than you. If you are peddling used boards your friends on a team had last year it sounds like you are just a hanger-on chasing a dream for the last 19 years that hasn't worked out so well. Pathetic. When it comes to selling the boards, I can tell without a doubt I could take $800 and get a better match for ANYONE, regardless of their skill from total noob to ripper and you'd have some money left over to actually go ride. 3 Quote

True fuckin story right there. Quote
Seelowchamp Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 True fuckin story right there. Kevin, Look I am selling 2010 vapors new for 800. If you can show me a new vapor anywhere near that price, do it. The vapors new this year retails for 1200 bones. I think that is a pretty good deal. I am only trying to sell this to people interested in vapors, at a discounted rate, with extras like a pair of anons or whatever. If your not into vapors then don't respond. One of my vapors also has slightly different graphics than the production ones that you will see in shops. Both of these vapors were prepped and tuned for use in last years us open finals by team riders and haven't been riden since, nor were they riden in the finals. Chasing the dream, you say? I am LIVING the dream, and have been for quite some time. It's all good though, your an industry know it all. I know the type very well. I have been on a different side of the industry for a long time, a side people like you don't know about, but think you do. Proform.....Yeah right..... Quote
Dan- Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) Who gives a shit about what it looks like. Limited, fuckin pro only, no one cares, you don't ride the graphic you ride the snowboard. Wait, the snowboard is new now? Wasn't it used before? and If i recall correctly, backcountry.com through up some vapors on brociety, for under 500 bones. 09 and new. Edited November 5, 2009 by Dan- Quote

DHarrisburg Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 Haha, I remember this guy from a long time ago. It's nice to see that he still is claiming his USASA wins like they actually mean something. Also the concept of a decent pipe rider who's local mountain is Camelback is absolutely hilarious. Isn't your name Jer or something? Wanna tell us again how you used to ride with Keir back Shawnee? 4 Quote

Isn't your name Jer or something? Wanna tell us again how you used to ride with Keir back Shawnee? That link kevin showed is for last years vapor, and yes that vapor i have is used, however the ones I have for 2010 are new. The ones with the Jean-Michael Basquiat graphics. Hey Dharrisburg: I wont tell you who I ride with , and yes Camelback is the closest Mountain to where I live. That doesn't mean that is the only place I snowboard. I ride in So cal, Co, and Vermont as well, I also have been to camp in Les Diablerets, and Verbier in Switzerland, as well as Mt. Hood, all in the summmer time. Since your keeping track.... But I am happy you are amused Guess where Danny Kasses local mountain was? Do you find that concept of him being a decent pipe rider, still hillarious? DIdn't think so. Just b/c your local mountain isn't that great, doesn't mean a good rider can't ride there, or get better somewhere else. But a know nothing toolbox like you , wouldn't understand that.... Quote
Dan- Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 Maybe for last years Vapor, but aren't you selling last years vapor for 200 more....? Quote
Seelowchamp Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Posted November 6, 2009 Maybe for last years Vapor, but aren't you selling last years vapor for 200 more....? All my prices are negotiable....and that site "brociety" is wack....and the vapor that was on there for that price is LONG gone... the only thing available on that site is a board bag..... Quote

They only sell one item as a time. If you look later it will be something else. Danny Kass's home mountain WAS mountain creek. Lots of guys start small. But he moved to Mammoth. If you are still living the dream, and you are a local at Camelback, something is wrong with your dream. At least DHarrisburg is in Utah I believe. Thats living the dream. Quote

Glenn Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) Seelow, you could at least ride at some point in your life. We get it. You hung out with people we don't and got free shit. We get it. We also understand you are trying to punt that free shit here at stupid high prices. This makes you an asshole whether or not you can ride well. Get it?

You're like that annoying dipshit who played football in high school and is constantly reminding people about how good he was even though he didn't have the chops to play college ball or ever actually do anything with the small amount of skill he was given. You are the snowboard equivalent of this guy; No one here is impressed with the majority of the nonsense you post because we do the same shit and in some respects do it on a much bigger scale. Have fun pushing your $900 snowboards to the limit in the 6 foot "halfpipes" of NEPA. Just to expedite things, here's the link to my facebook, seeing as you are apparently getting your junior internet detective degree by googling people who call you out in this thread. Quote

You are so lost you don't even see when you are getting owned. I have a better board than the Vapor. The lightest board with a wood core, magne traction, and the added bonus is I paid $250 for a $950 board - at a general sale not through connections. I post under my real name, and link to my Facebook, because I stand by everything I write. Though not sure where you get the mustache comment from, are you incapable of even following links? I have 2-3 long reasoned posts in this thread and I haven't seen you try to disagree with a word of any of them, other than trying to insult me and say how awesome of a rider you are. Which one of us is the joke? (And have you ever noticed that there is a direct relation between when just how owned someone is getting in an arguement or debate and how loud they start screaming THIS IS OVER, DON"T EVEN ARGUE I'VE WON!)

method9455 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Posted November 29, 2009 (edited) i won.....all those boards sold on ebay..your just a cheap loser who just needs a board to slide on snow and thats it..... Keep telling yourself that. I see that nobody on PASR bought them. I could care less if you sell them to the general public, my goal was to not have PASR readers buy them. (didn't I tell you to try and sell them on eBay? Shit, that makes me right on that too). Every potential buyer here was convinced by the collective opinion of everyone BUT YOU not to purchase them. Did you link to here and the people who bought the boards read everything we wrote and still decided to buy them? Hell no. So you didn't "win" shit. It is not surprising there is a market for the board on eBay. Glad you got some money to support yourself though, must be tough when you need to make money doing arbitrage on snowboards. When I had hookups for gear I used to sell them to my friends for what I paid for them or give them away to try and get more people riding. I never had to try and make a buck peddling stuff online. What'd you make, $200-400 each? Woohoo! Oh yea, and I picked up a $600 board brand new for $200 on friday, not through a connection that was the price in the store for a 2009. Hmmmmmm.
