Be careful with this one on Ebay... I've seen some people use NWT to mean "Normal Wear and Tear."

just for the record.

I'm not putting everyone's suggestions up on the list...just the ones that I feel some people may not know.

things like LOL or THX aren't going to make the list.

hmmm, i'd say that these could be important:

Stores besides the ones mentioned:

UTA - uptempoair.com
FNL/FL - finish line
FA - Footaction
PYS- pickyourshoes.com
ISS (aka I$$, lol) - instyleshoes.com
FCNY - Flight Club New York (I think i've heard this acronym before, but I could be wrong)

What about DTLR? I've heard of it, but am not quite sure what it stands for (I've lived in a rural area for a long time) Down Town Locker Room?

To me it look like a Leprechaun to me, all you gotta do is look up in the tree.. Who all see the Leprechaun say yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

^ no 56k means there's a lot of pictures... 56k let alone 28k cant handle it... its a warning that if you click it your comp can freeze and/or lag. lol just if you have 56k and there's a warning... dont click it. hahah go to the library or something and check it there.

^reserve is an option for the seller that lets the seller decide how high they want their auction to go before selling it. for example, if a seller sets reserve at 160 for some shoes, that means if bidding does not exceed 160, the seller doesn't have to sell the shoes. no fees are incured on the buyer. if reserve is met, then it's just like a regular auction.
