Post by: region11 on July 29, 2013, 07:34 PM: Just to add to the fun...Skatepool and Alans receipts grabbed at random.

I have one receipt from Skatepool where I bought a pair of Haro FS tyres in pink, but Steve sent white. Steve is a cool guy and sent the pink and let me keep the white. All for Â£22. Happy days :)
