Feet or no feet

Postby Donner » Tue Feb 22, 2011 6:22 pm

When you get a new pedal do you like having the feet already attached or not (so you can velcro it or something else)

I voted 'no feet'. Including them in the box seems to be good for everyone: those who use them can put them on, those who don't can leave them in the box as 'case candy'.

I vote nay to pre-attached.
Yay to included in the box.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

No feet. By the way I only just got the double entendre of bearfoot.

I usually put my own feet on and save the original feet for the next guy should I sell.

I know it gives some cold sweats, but I just put velcro on it if it passes the one week test. I did put a spare bottom on my Model HvT even though I cant see selling it. It was just too pretty to ruin.

Feet stink!
:laughing4

Really, it is sensible to allow the purchaser to have the option to apply them or not. This comes at no cost to the manufacturer, and is a free service to the consumer. Everyone wins.

If you can't put the little sticky feet on yourself, I volunteer to help.
