eBay has been the best source for me... I can find the older models at a reasonable price. I just bought Victory 2 spikes for $38 and Pegasus 34 for $76.

Running Warehouse has a much better selection than most running stores. I haven't noticed that their prices are significantly higher than elsewhere. The customer reviews are a great resource that I'd be willing to pay a little more to support even if the prices were higher. And I'd rather give my money to Joe Rubio than Jeff Bezos.
Hate to burst your bubble a bit but paid reviewers leave anonymous reviews on RW so take them with a grain of salt.
I bought six pairs of NB racing flats from RW 2-3 years ago for $17 each. (you had to buy six to get that price)
Best deal I've ever got. Still got a couple new pair.

Did you expect a hand delivered telegram to alert you of the news as if you were Lord Grantham of Downton Abbey?

Why, yes, of course I did, Lord Grantham. Well, that or maybe an email letting me know it dropped from 15 to 10. Not that hard to do for a company that addresses me as "Valued Customer", is it?
Running Warehouse. I use valid discount codes, easy to find.

I have a feeling you are the type to complain no matter what. Too many emails. Not valued enough. Your hands hurt when you click on the mouse. You'll find a way
Finishline sucks overall as is mostly a store for wannabe hypebeasts, but you can get decent deals on Nike running shoes when they go on sale. Good luck with their sh*tty website though.
Anyone know if RW has increased in popularity? That could lead to it being harder to grab old models when they get discounted. I've noticed this has gotten a bit harder lately than it was a few years ago.
Still, picked up someTakumi Sens and Peg 35s on clearance a few months ago. There are Streak 7s on clearance now. You just have to time it a bit. I've never gotten their alerts to work for price drops.
I wouldn't trust Amazon for this. I've read about how they have big problems with counterfeits across the website. Look up Pegasus Turbo 2. It's a minefield of confusing prices and suspect colors.
Love RW and will continue to use them.
Used to be a killer deal to use RW but now it seems to be a still good but not bargain price deal . Mostly some of the shoe companies caught on like 5 years ago (eg Brooks) and won’t allow anything below MSRP

Yes eBay is the best for spikes.

It ap-pears he made a mistake.
I used to buy from running warehouse, but now, I buy directly from Nike.com, adidas.com, or Reebok.com.
If you sign up for emails, there’s always 20-30% off going on. Also, they constantly have sales on certain color ways. And with all 3 sites, it’s 30 day free return even after wearing them, so if I want to try new shoes, and don’t like them, I can easily return them.
