        Can anyone recommend an inexpensive place to send old boots to get resoled? I want to get Vibram ripples or cristy's on an old pair… not looking to spend $300 though.

              In my humble opinion, I think the huge amount of guys like you are why this place is so awesome, but that's just me  🙂

                  I know this is a stretch. But you never know.. But, is there anyone that lives in Japan that would be willing to buy and ship this shirt to me?

                  I am willing to well compensate you for your efforts. I can PayPal the money for the shirt in advance. They refuse to ship outside of Japan.

                          Talking to a property manager about renting out our house.

                          If you have rented out a house and had a positive or negative experience please persuade or disused me either way please 🙂

                            My wife and I have rented out places and it really depends on the tenant. That sounds obvious but that depends on the realtor if you’re using one.  Use a realtor yiu know and trust and who knows you. Have a beast of a rental lease written up. Be thorough on all of your rules. Very thorough. And be selective about who you choose. I suggest meeting with them and having them provide a credit score. Also! Make sure they get renters insurance. Make that part of the lease. This is your home. Not trying to scare you.  Just inform you

                            Maybe so. Maybe not

                              Thanks Matt, the rental company ensures qualified tenants and handles small stuff as part of their fee.

                              Hoping it just attracts nice families… not sure how lucky we get to be if we get an accepted offer on the house we want and time is of the essence lol

                                @Appfaff using a property manager is the only way to go IMO, you're on the right course.  Doing everything yourself can be a pain in the ass.  A property manager is generally worth every penny.

                                My father has rented properties for the past 20 plus years or so and at first he was doing everything himself and it wore him down.  He had a renter in one of his properties and there was a domestic dispute where a gun was "accidentally discharged" inside the house.  Thank god the bullet(s) did not hit any humans but one did go through a cabinet in the kitchen and an arcadia door (this is just one example of headaches he had with renters).  That was the final straw for him and he was about to sell his properties…between getting phone calls in the middle of the night during the summer cause the AC unit went out....renters who left houses completely trashed.....bullets flying in the kithcen....he was done.

                                But he gave it one more shot and decided to try a property manager and it has been smooth sailing ever since.  I don't even think he has met or seen any of his renters in the past 5 years or so.  Property manager has handled everything and have found quality renters every time.  Almost completely hands off for him now.

                                          Is a lightweight 888 cut planned for this summer? I think I remember talk of it but don’t see it in the future product section.
