they call me back and tell me their out and k2 is not intending on making anymore replacement souls, so they refunded me the money

Just kind of bad luck for you. But if they are going to do it, they should put in a little research into their stuff. Pay one person to stay on top of the market for them.

Did RW say all of their packs of replacement souls have that same problem, or just that one? Is the packaging a box or see through plastic?

depressingly accurate. i recieved a pair of skates "new" once from a skateboard shop that were the wrong size, covered in scratches and with wheels clearly had been skated and t-stopped on. then the staff member tried to bluff it out that "they are meant to be that way!" and after a proper argument admitted they didnt have any in that size, and tried to offer me a trade for some Anarchy's that retailed for much, much less than i'd paid. eventually got my money back and no more business for them.

Just my package, it was in a see through plastic bag. With a cardboard K2 sports thing on top, they said k2 isn't going to be making any more replacement soul plates, I ordered the size 9-9.5 and the package I bought was their last one

Whoever handled your order at RW is at fault, they handled a see through package with an obvious issue.

Try AMALL.

Yea I got that much. RW was gonna send me a left. Soul plate no charge, but their sold out and K2 is my making them anymore for whatever stupid reason. It's just retarded to me that they barely started manufacturing the replace my plate and now their already stopping, shits bonkers, AMALL doesn't sell them I looked already

If there isn't any demand for replaceable parts, no company will make them; why waste the money manufacturing them? And the replacement souls were only $20, I thought that was pretty nice.

AMALL did sell them up until just recently, because I checked last week when I decided to go back to my red Varsity's. Sucks that they don't anymore. Seems like no one does :(

yea sucks, I have these pair of k2 fattys I got off ebay for 80 bucks a while back, and I wanted to put the varsity soul plates on them so i could have a semi bigger soul. oh well. they will jsut stay in the closet for now

i bought 4 extra sets a few weeks back. RW told me that news weeks ago. This kind of supports my theory that the varsity will probably be k2's last aggressive skate. however why don't you just mod carbon souls onto them? and now i also have to check the 4 bags of souls i have.

thanks for the scare. Guess i lucked out

It just baffles me that an adult can have such a poor grasp of the language he/she uses every day. I can't imagine it's intentional, he must really not know the difference between their and they're.
