Jordan Brand is tripping with these price increases. I'm seriously considering calling it quits w/ them just off GP.

Yeah it's only a $10 increase but at the same time you have to keep in mind that the XIII and the majority of the other Jordans was under $150 when they first came out so just the thought of having to pay $170 for some IV's, III V's is ******ed imo if they paln on doing that with all of the Jordan retros

This,paying $170 for 3s-10s,and 12s is stupid.
I can't believe the 1s are going for $140 next year.

I agree with you 100% It's like Jordan brand is trying to raise there prices like the Lebron X and KD V's but only differrence is there raising prices on shoes that have already came out before with the same technology with lower grade materials. Makes no sense at all!

It makes perfect sense because people continue to buy. GR Jordans selling out instantly what other gym shoe does that? They can hike the price because people will still continue to buy it and they know this.

the thing is they are constantly raising prices 5-10$ and that will add up, those who say 170 from 160 is fine now but when a pair of 13s are 200 people will notice, and hopefully it will backfire

And it's this sad mindset from the masses which is why jb will keep the crap up with the price increases.

On a side note I think Jb's nonsense with crap quality, inaccurate retros (13s with no 3m) and unnecessary price hikes will hurt them in the long run.
The worst thing they can do is alienate their core longtime customer base and they've been pushing their longtime base away slowly but surely.
For alot of people, this "sneakerhead" I hate that word, stuff is just a phase. Kids are buying Jordan's because collecting sneakers is the in thing to do for them, I'm curious to see how many of them are still buying everything 4-5 years from now.
Remember when aqua 8's sat in 07. I remember back between 06-2010 anything that wasn't a xi or limited could be had with ease. This phase of everything selling out isn't going to last forever and in a few years stores will be loaded with $200 retros that are sitting because at some point people are going to draw a line and say enough is enough

Sadly yes. Can't really do anything about it other than not be a part of the statistic.
It's hard but I'm forcing myself to start thinking with this mindset.

It's only a tough pill to swallow because you can't see what that extra 10 dollars is going towards. It ain't the quality that's for sure

Bred XIIIs, White/black Vs, Grapes, White/red VIIIs and Maybe a pair of aquas to replace my 07s if they actually come out.
Everything else is unnecessary to me and ill only be buying nike basketball retros and air maxes from then on.

Wow, $170 for the Jordan 13's? Yeah it's only a 20 price hike, but these inflated prices is getting stupid.. After the Jordan 4's 2marrow, I'm done with Jordan brand.. As long as I have the 3,4's(My favorite jordan ever), 5's, and 6's, I'm good.. I don't need the other models.. All I'm getting is LeBrons and other retro Nike's.. Also, I know I'm getting some reebok's net year also..
