The Chuck Taylor lookalikes aren’t $15. In fact they cost more than actual Chuck Taylors.
@trecool95: I see $15 for every pair.
No Sweat Apparel, I’ll have to remember that. Going to that site will be a more productive reaction than blowing a gasket the next time I read some stupid story about American consumers’ insatiable appetite for Chinese goods.
[And yeah, I know I'm conflating "Chinese" with "sweatshop". There are no real labor unions that I know of in China.]
@trecool95: The regular price, in black, is $42, the sale price, in blue, underneath, is $15.
That PSP deal is a ripoff. Its for the first generation OLDER, SLOWER, HEAVIER PSP which is being phased out for the new PSP “Slim” which now retails for $170.
Bad deal.
Is union-made supposed to be a positive selling point?
@Freaky Styley: Look at it this way. At least the workers are here, recycling their wages into out economy.
@Freaky Styley:
It probably is when it’s made in a foreign country.

@DashTheHand: Yeah, I think if I wanted a PSP I’d pony up $15 for the newer model instead of an old refurb.
The sale price shows as $35 for me.
@trecool95: scroll down the page that’s been linked to. They’re at the bottom of the page. That said, there probably won’t be any shoes in your size for $15.
Yea, you can get $15 chuckies… in a size 2 or 3.
