      I was being sarcastic. I don't really care about where or what fades. But there is no fucking way I would carry my iphone in my back pocket. My wallet looks like a mangled piece of chewed up leather, couldn't imagine what my phone would look like.

        Although I prefer having my phone in my back pocket I don't like the fade from it which is why I started taking it out before I sit.  With my current pair I decided to stick with just a small credit card holder which IMO looks best.

          I generally keep my phone in my front pocket, until it inevitably eats through the pocket bag, then I transfer it to the back pocket. As for the fade, I really do not give a shit, it's where I keep my phone and it's a natural process so….

            Mega, I'm with you.  And is difficult to write this without appearing pompous, but jeans are one of the few articles of clothing that can truly reflect what you do and who you are.  If you start trying to increase/decrease evo in a particular place, you are altering that story.  I love that in Ruedi's Jeans Museum, he has sequences of jeans from the same person (proper working Americans), the similarity in fades between the jeans is incredible….

                      I was sitting on my iPhone in my 666D all night last night, but that's a fully lined pocket too. 🙂

                        Anyone bought from Hannon before? I'm wondering if it would be worth it to have someone proxy me a parcel rather than buy from them direct in order to save a few $s.

                                  If it's over 4 pounds then it has to be sent Priority mail. In which case(obviously, depending on location), you might just go with a USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate box.

                                  Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

                                    Yep, over 4 pounds is either Priority or Express. Depending on the weight, flat rate can be cheaper, same as domestic

                                    The only thing I don't like is that it seems the US is one of the only countries that doesn't atleast offer a signature option for 1st Class Int'l

                                      On the other hand: First Class is as fast as Express and Priority… I'd suggest using First Class only when you're dealing with someone you can trust though... It is not tracked and Paypal will not accept it if the buyer starts a fraude-claim... On the other hand: does Paypal accept àny USPS services, éven the tracked ones?.. I remember some mates of mine saying they only accept a UPS/ FedEx/... receipt and tracking #...

                                        Would you say most USPS rates are cheaper than UPS/Fedex?

                                          which is why i would never ship anything of value 1st class unless its to a reputable person.  Not to sound prejudice but i did a lot of business in Brazil and lost a whole lot of money because i shipped first class.  Very easy for someone to say they never received it.  It also stops tracking once it leaves US customs which is very inviting to the scammers

                                            Id say yes and on top of that i feel like the cheaper options with USPS tend to get there quicker.  Of course thats just based on my experiences.
