I am grabbing a stealth too! No reason I should deprive myself of one of the best clothing items I have EVER owned…

[Splattered]

I buy a fair amount of my IH second hand etc and i'm sure that has to irritate certain folks to an extent haha… but i am DEF down for a stealth as well. Looking forward to it when it's ready.

I don't see how you would owe anyone anything…

[Giles]

A thriving second hand market is great for the brand.  Having people dick around with the product selling it cheaply through eBay is not good for the longevity of the brand.  I reinvest a lot of what margin I make in coming up with new products that you guys like.  My margins fall, guess what, new products dont happen…G

Wise words.

Well yeah, i mean who doesnt love finding deals and what not… but on the flip side people put a lot of passion into things they create and sometimes i feel slightly guilty buying things used etc ... weird, i know.

[Giles]

As I said, or thought I did, a thriving second hand market is good.

Supporting unauthorised products/sellers helps to kill a brand.

Your choice….

[Seul]

There is indeed a huge difference between those 2 groups of people… No doubt.

[Splattered]

Well most of my IH items so far are from SENY, a few pieces i have proxied, a couple i purchased used second hand, and then i got my superblack vest from Giles… def plan to purchase more from SENY/Giles in the future... sorry if i stepped on toes w my ebay purchase/post i didn't really think anything about it at the time.

[Seul]

Well I'd rather have you buy it than someone who'll never buy another IH piece new (or 2ndhand)!.. But then, I'm not really involved… Just my 0.02...

I know how you feel.  It's kind of a strange Stickholm Syndrome thing.  Or just the fact that Giles treated me so well on our last transaction that I want to reciprocate his kindness and proffesionalism with more of my business.  I did have a bit of guilt when I was unable to pass up my $100 herringbone loggers however.  I try to honor the great treatment Ive gotten from G by sharing my interest and love for this brand with anyone who will listen…
Thanks again to the whole IH crew for maintaing such integrity with their business and products!

I have a Face Book page only intended to promote IH gear… I love promoting TW and IH gear to any- and everyone... http://www.facebook.com/Seul.IH

Other than that: I have a lot of people on a number of messageboards who ask me about clothes, mostly denim… The last couple of months I've found myself to be linking to the IH forum and shop only... A mate even PM'ed me asking whether I was working for IH... I responded...

I don't work for IH - but I back what I know is the best.

I guess there's no cure to us IH junks…

@Katsushin:

Hopefully that Super Stealth is ready for Zhivago when we go to Vegas Sept. 30th.

We can only hope, my fingers will remain crossed for the next month I guess.

[hectic]

[Beatle]

Yeah, I have had that numerous time with a few items. I don't mind it. In fact, I enjoy it in a sick denim nerd kind of way…
