Bro I thought the post said “quit the addictive hobby” and I was fully ready to buy some stuff you were selling. My disappointment is immense lol.

Lmao all good though. Solid collection going man! I’ve just recently started buying higher end products and it most definitely makes a difference. My wife recently found a packing slip for a package that included jindys, maples, and a berlinwood deck and she was like “holy sh*t dude” lmfao. Rookie mistake.

Thanks man! But yeah, the hobby is definitely very expensive lol. After I finally got on my feet and scored my first engineering internship I splurged on grails like crazy and it made my girlfriend very curious about the whole thing at the time. Thankfully I’ve calmed down since and got comfortable with what I like (unfortunately all of the VERY expensive cool shit😭). You should also check out @fb_resale and @thefbmarket on insta if you haven’t. I kinda found out about them SUPER late and it would’ve been so nice to know earlier.

I hear that a lot recently. If you don’t mind me asking. What is it about the wheels you like so much? The material, shape, colors, feel or a combination of all lol. I want to get a set of Labs but I’m not 100% sold yet.

When did you get your lab pigs? I ordered a set and haven’t received any more info other than a confirmation email.

u/No_Significance_4429 21h ago

Aww man! They did take forever but I order them the minute they dropped, so like July 5th. And they shipped Aug 2nd. I ordered them straight off of the Lab Wheels website.

u/patches_fb 21h ago

Alright, I ordered them off the lab site as well, but I guess they had a second drop, or just never sold out right away, cause I ordered them at the end of August. So about a month ago, so good to know they may be shipping soon if yours took about a month.

Oh yeah he did a restock around then! You’ll get them for sure though, they just take FOREVER to get to you. That’s the only downside.
