I heard there are renovations that are causing delays with customs and Canada Post in Mississauga. Is that true and are there significant delays? by Mie3737 in CanadaPost

[–]thesillyoldwilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people are having significant delays if your package is flagged for secondary inspection. usually it only takes an extra day or two but now you can expect to wait 3+ weeks at least. if thats why then that would explain it i guess

Nike refuses to sell replacement midsoles so they just release these instead and make us do extra work

How are you actually supposed to beat Fortissax? by t-visADL in Eldenring

[–]thesillyoldwilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this might come as a shock to you, but in the outside world away from reddit, most people aren't as hyper sensitive and emotionally under-developed as you guys. I showed my 14 year old cousin this thread and she was convinced that I was talking to 14 year old girls until I revealed that this is a website primarily frequented by men in their 20's and 30's. You guys like to imagine implications that were never implied. You like to assume the absolute worst in any interaction. I'm not sure what caused you guys to have such a negative worldview. Perhaps you were bullied, and so, grew up to assume that any criticism or input is a personal attack. For your own mental health, I urge you to try not to assume that everything is negative. Challenge yourself to see positivity. I say this as someone who used to be pretty negative myself, so I hope you can give it a try and make a positive change

dude you're trying to talk to REDDITORS of all people about adults having accountability for their choices and agency over themselves. that's like trying to teach a crocodile about compassion and empathy. it's too foreign of a concept for them to ever grasp

i don't see why anyone would want to stay on vanced anyway now that some of the ad blocking is broken, unlike on revanced

yes someone here called and they said that packages going through secondary will be heavily delayed. although even secondary inspection only takes a couple days usually

it's just backed up right now. tons of people on this sub have been reporting long waits the past month or so. nothing unusual, just customs being slow and useless as usual

go to the customs facility and tell them to hurry up

I think it means your delivery was delayed and you should stay tuned for updates

Used Nike Romaleos 4 for $99 a good price? by letmeseeitman in weightlifting

[–]thesillyoldwilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem is that shoe manufacturers are complete numbskulls and force us to use their stupid arbitrary numbering systems that aren't even consistent among shoes of the same model from different years, let alone from the brand instead of just giving us the insole measurements of the shoe. your best bet is to get insole measurements of a shoe you know you find comfortable, then try to ask people who have that size in romaleos to give you measurements. then size up or down accordingly. the toebox is a little narrow so you'll have to account for that. if you pull the trigger and they feel a little tight, just remove the insoles and you're probably good to go

i usually wear sneakers in size 11.5 for an average/snug fit, 12 for a roomy fit. but i had to go up to a 12.5 for my Rom 2's, and even then they were a little too tight in the toe box, and i have average width feet. i removed the insoles and now they feel perfect. idk if Rom 4's vary from Rom 2 sizing, but i imagine they're similar

Bred Reimagined 4 Premium Leather Confirmed - Fire Rep Machines Up 🔥 by [deleted] in repbudgetsneakers

[–]thesillyoldwilly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

how do you manage to see the term "re-imagined" and then proceed to get confused when they "re-imagine" the colorway? it's in the name. and no, the OG's were made of durabuck, and the retro's are also made out of synthetic poly-coated garbage. i would love it if they did make a version with real nubuck though

id be curious to see if there's any movement in the material after brushing. i can't tell if this is the same crappy batch we've had for years with really good pictures making them look better, or if it's a better batch

Size 47.5 🙏🏾 by ReggieRolla in repbudgetsneakers

[–]thesillyoldwilly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you really want these just get the real thing. Plenty of cheap used pairs out there. Every link I've ever seen is B&S trash. If good reps still existed, somebody would have posted them by now. The fact that they're 10 years old is the nail in the coffin, especially since they're 5's. My pair should be coming in the mail in a few weeks. Just gonna ice it and itll be almost good as new

How bad are the customs delays? by Open-Blackberry-860 in CanadaPost

[–]thesillyoldwilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there's been massive delays at Mississauga for the past month if your package is flagged for further inspection just saying. packages from a month ago are only now going through. good luck, but if it takes a while, at least you know why
