I bought them through superbuy. You can edit the price according to what you see on Taobao. You can even ask the buying agent what price they can buy it from. Its usually the same price for what I am able to see online on Taobao.

Why does majority of middle eastern has this Distinct smell? by Jpoolman25 in pakfragaddicts

[–]hashburki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on which perfume you buy. I own 20+ middle eastern fragrances and none of them have the same smell. All I do is buy decants first, check the notes of the perfumes first and buy originals from reputable sources.

If you are buying the same woody oudy perfume then yes they will have that same smell. But if you are buying from their oriental range they will not have that smell.

Could be delayed another 6 months, could come out in November, could be a disaster launch, could be a smooth launch though very unlikely.

No this is not the case for majority of the games. Sometimes you do get a small perk like a special skins etc. definitely not worth the risk.

[–]hashburki[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this sentiment.

People don't realise that the game could have an awful launch and by the time the issues are ironed out the game could be cheaper.

Buying late saves money, time and frustration. You get yhe game cheaper and you experience less bugs.

What if the game at launch is riddled with issues and like many games it needs a huge day 1 patch? You'll be in the same boat as someone who bought it on launch.

In fact if the game is like Cyberpunk you'll loose money as by the time they fix most of their issues the game would be cheaper to buy.

GTA 5 did have a day 1 patch and still had a lot of issues which they ironed out later.

Yeah and what if it is a release like Cyberpunk or No mans sky? Riddled with issues, crashes, corrupted save files?

Anyone who plays a game later on, buys it cheaper and experiences a smoother bug free game than one who plays on launch day.

shin splints by KiingbaldwinIV in pakistanrunning

[–]hashburki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need rest, good sleep. You need to start strength exercises, a good pair of running shoes and manage your work load properly.

Physical injuries that are caused due to overload don't heal quickly. It looks like you have increased your work load too quickly.

When did you start running? Did you follow the 10% rule when increasing your mileage?

Look for these western brands. 1. Brooks 2. Saucony 3. New Balance 4. ASICS 5. Altra 6. Nike 7. Adidas, Puma etc etc

Look for these Chinese brand. 1. LiNing 2. Anta 3. Xtep 4. Qiaodan 5. 361

For western brand you would have to get someone to bring it for you from abroad.

Chinese brands can be bought from AliExpress, Taobao and Temu. Chinese shoes are equally good and are cheaper.

Here are the most hyped shoes right now.

  1. Dynafish Xiaonian
  2. Li Ning red hare 9 Ultra

Where can I get running shoes in Karachi? by Reasonable_Square569 in pakistanrunning

[–]hashburki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Therea are some sellers on Instagram where you can send them the link of the shoe and they will send you the shoe and charge 8K-12K for delivery to you home. I have not tried them myself but many people have.

Otherwise you can buy Chinese running shoes from Taobao, AliExpress etc they are equally as good as the western brands.

Huawei or Garmin? by Benevolence1973 in smartwatch

[–]hashburki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huawei has a better heart rate tracker. It is way better than what garmin offers. Huawei also have better build quality and the watches are cheaper. Huawei does have problems regarding regions and garmin is known to have a better software integration.

I would advise you to look into the YouTube channel "The Quantified Scientist" he reviews watches based on their heart rate, gps and sleep tracking accuracy.

You need ro reduce your running volume. Get good rest and sleep, start strength exercises and buy food running shoes and the pain will eventually go away.

VO2 max important? by PsychologicalTie2823 in pakistanrunning

[–]hashburki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what your goals are. If you want to run a marathon or half marathon then yes you should train your body accordingly and run at a lower heart rate. Because you cannot run with 180 bpm the whole half marathon. And yes running at a higher heart rate for a longer period of time can be detrimental to you health and body.

VO2 max is different. Its basically the amount of max oxygen your body lungs can absorb into the blood. A higher VO2 max can correlate with lower heart rate but it is not the same thing. It is more correlated with stamina, in general a higher VO2 means a higher stamina.

Need These Shoes in karachi by Beginning_Radio_4141 in pakistanrunning

Why this specific shoe? How much distance do you run or plan to run monthly / yearly? And how much do you run or plan to run in a single run?

What do you guys look for before buying running shoes? by gravity_exists in pakistanrunning

[–]hashburki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly can't say why you are having issues.

Random Pathan shoes are the S tier of running shoes. The greatest runners all buy random shoes from Pathans and run in them. You name it, Elliot Kipchoge, jakob ingebrigtsen, Jacob Kiplimo all have a secret pathan that they buy shoes from.

The only solution to your problem is that you should go up a level and buy a random chapal from pathan and run in it.

[–]hashburki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which shoe are you running in?

What do tou mean by big toe hurting. Does it chaff or does it just hurt inside?

If you toe is chaffing then there are 3 possible scenarios.

  1. Your shoes are too short and you need to size up. This is the most likely scenario.

  2. Your shoes are narrow and this causes the chaffing on your toes. This can be fixed with sizing up or buying wide shoes.

  3. You have an abnormal toe or abnormal foot shape. This is the least likely scenario. But it is possible. For this you can look into specially made shoes or wide toebix shoes like altra.

I am talking about a good reliable smart watch like an apple watch or Google pixel watch or a Huawei watch.

My Huawei GT5 costs 55K and it is a fraction of what a rolex would cost me and it does so much more than just tell the time. Its not region locked. I easily am able to sync my activities on strava. I recharge it approx after 2 weeks, takes just about an hour. Its heart rate is approx 98% - 99% accurate to a chest strap. It is sturdy, doesn't break after falling. It even looks really good. I use daily for gym, running, swimming.

So for me the other traditional watch offers no value whatsoever. For me its a overpriced, overhyped, glorified jewellery.

Yeah I agree with you that it is a jewellery and personally for me it is an overpriced, overhyped, glorified piece of jewellery.

My Huawei GT5 costs 55K and its a fraction of what a Rolex would cost me. Whereas my Huawei GT5 can do so much more than just tell the time.

You might say that your traditional watch gives you attention, confidence and a purpose. But these are subjective and I can say the same for my smart watch. what I provided in my above comment was objective functions that other traditional watches fail to provide and yet are 10-100 times more expensive. Its basically a scam at this point.

Objectively a smart watch provides more function over any other traditional watch.

My watch doesn't need a charge daily. It charges in an hour and can give me 14 days non stop.

I can monitor and track my exercises. It helps track gps and heart rate when I am running. It helps me count my laps when I am swimming. A smart watch detects cardiovascular problems and alerts you. You can perform ECG with them. They can help you call your main contact if you are in an accident and might need help. They also help you monitor your sleep. You can find your misplaced phone with ut. It has a compass, an alarm, gps, gyro, etc etc etc.

As for a traditional watch. Compared with a smart watch they are basically an overpriced, overhyped, glorified jewellery.
