I'm the same size as you. When I was looking a little more than a month ago, I found frags at $900+, got my pair for $800. I checked the last 2 weeks and still found some spots that have them for $900-$950. 

As for the DSM goes, $680 is the lowest price i've seen from resellers. They're on my list but not that high due to the fact that it's PL. Do like the prism effect though. My friend who won the raffle for them says it feels pretty comfy, looks to be OG mold 

Pm me if you know places that have em for $900-950 lol.. I just bought that damn MacBook but F it I need more frags.
 
ok so the REAL price is around $700 and i shouldn't be paying attention to these $1,100 ebay listings?? i'm not really even in the market for these, tho i love the iridescent affect. i'm just interested in how these prices are going for each subsequent limited release. it's like the beast gets bigger and stronger every month.

imo, just for today i've seen a lot of sellers trying to dump

so it's actually a buyers market right now

once as always when pairs dry up price will rise back up 
 
caved and paid $680 off of a friend of a friend who got lucky on DSM London not his size. 

Friends don't let friend pay over retail brahhh..

Edit: I just read the recent post..lol
Lowest I've seen so far...under $700 is good to buy right now

There is no way with everyone that got through that these will touch fragment prices tbh...at the end of the day these are first day BIN pricesI would try to find a good auction, watch it and see where it ends at...

It all comes down to availability.. This shoe was only release @ 4 stores worldwide and an online release in which I didn't see many folks flourish, wishing everyone did...
Frags were release at many boutiques and Nike flagship stores...not trying to hype up these shoes...but these are more limited if your trying to compare them both...we all said the same about frags not reaching blk/gold prices...look at it now...

Just saying..

but they released differently online, thats why you saw more "real" people getting a pair. Whereas Frags were a NikeLab NDC release that was much harder for team manual 
 
you guys are right, the allocation is completely different - its a true exclusive....and this being released online only through DSM at a random time made it for a possible cop and created the perception of being slightly easier to obtain. Like you said, if the options were nikelab, as well as end, hanon etc... very few of us would have had stood a chance online. As I look more at the in-hand pairs, I'm starting to realize these prices are actually real (judging by the watchers).
 
i mean the in store raffle was still pretty rigged, just take a look at that picture with the 2 dudes sitting behind 4 pairs alone. But the online attempt's gave people real chances. I don't usually mess with bots but my friend gave me a free auto checkout for these and it was useless. I was at the submit order page so many times, it's just the luck of the draw of getting confirmation whereas NikeLab, you either need a bot or a backdoor link. 
 
Was stuck at payment for a bit ,struck out
Working with a fractured rib and failing on the dsm's wasn't a good day for the ol boy

most people with multiple pairs purchased off winners. most of the regular dudes who be getting pairs did not win raffle for these, it was done fair as far as I know.

maybe DSM, but 21 mercer was definitely not 100% fair or legit. Another member just said that somebody hit 5 for 5.

I cant say for certain if anything was 100% fair, but it was for the most part just off the fact that it was people who have never been to mercer or dover before in their lives winning pairs. If it was pay to play like you said everyone would see the same faces walking out with multiple pairs which was not the case. Many top reseller dudes were even struggling to get one.

680 is definitely friend price, I have friends offering me 7, they know the deal
yup, id pay 7 for my size for sure, especially for that 12.5 that apparently exists :smokin

12.5 does exist. Maybe those resellers did buy off the winners, but i definitely did see some usual "winners" with more than 2 pairs for sale. Either way, I was glad that a lot of NT members did win from both the raffles and online, especially JamesB who got 3 pairs (?)

btw, alp how you do?

no good, I didn't touch anything on this release.

:nthat: trying to get a pair of just dons which i struck out badly on
you might have to add a little cash right now to get that trade done. maybe in a few months or a little longer down the road it would be an even swap. I have just dons and someone would have to add bread to make me give 1 up for a dsm.
 
lol the irony of both of you are each sitting with multiples of that 1 shoe you each want.

Friend? I'd move em to the associate category.

My friend oop'd me his ticket for nothing--he won but wasn't feeling these. That's been my brother since college.
Happy to add these to the collection.
