Title: WASD CODE Cherry Browns with original box $89
Post by: SamirD on Tue, 23 October 2018, 17:38:36
This is on another forum, but it's basically just brand new and sitting in the box.  Browns aren't my thing or I would have been all over this one.  And I think you can maybe even talk down some as the price was dropped $10 in the last week. ;)

Are you into MX Browns, though? They always felt disturbingly crunchy to me. If they clicked too, it wouldn't be so bad. Anyway, I'm just saying.

I'm not at all.  They feel like bad reds to me.  If it clicked, it would have been gone by now. ;)

As opposed to the 'mean reds' that you get when you can't have breakfast at Tiffany's. :D

What th'...? Guess I'll have to re-watch that Audrey Hepburn movie (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/breakfast_at_tiffanys) to get what you mean.

Always a great excuse to watch that classic!  :cool:

I thought a search would result in a clip, but instead there's a whole article about the line!

Isn't the Internet amazing? It makes things like this so easy.

30 years ago, we would've had to poke around in the library (an actual, physical place) for relevant info, and then—assuming we were able to find it—send it to each other by postal mail. And we wouldn't know who any of us were, because we hadn't met online yet, so we'd have to consult psychics and detectives to know where to send it. Plus, some of us wouldn't have been born yet, which would be really tricky.

Yes, we've come a long way. That said, I do miss women in dresses and lipstick.
