You just added a lil something extra to the situation with your new price. These are selling for $100-$130 at outlets pretty easily.

The usual foam material is usually nubuck/suede (not sure which one it is exactly). looks like these are white leather. definitely not suede.
nike only uses leather for that area when its white and for the silver foam pros if I remember correctly.

i cant say i inspected them, but i just zoomed in on the pictures on my phone and it looks like you are right. the edges are what got dirty, not sure how to explain it. but under the laces at the end of the leather area. and the tongue of course, seems to be same upper as the white outs

trust me, I don't doubt they are dirt magnets
even the sport royals got dirty BAD and they were grey. keeping a black upper seems so hard for nike to do.... its the best way to keep them from getting dirty and I swear nobody complained about that and made them start getting creative in that area.

WHITE PART NEVER HAD FOAM... LIKE bigj505 SAID... ITS NUBUCK OR SUEDE.. I WOULD PROB. BET ON NUBUCK AND THESE APPEAR TO BE LEATHER. CANT GET WITH THE CORDS THOUGH... THAT WHITE SOCK LINER/LACE AREA WAS ALWAYS AN EYE SORE SINCE THE DOOMS

when the concords go on sale.. <150 ill grab a pair.. they should have painted the bottom foam white so the clear sole would look better with them.

lol I was there.. It was mainly because everyone from everywhere came to a city where Foamposites weren't a big deal.. then A.G.H. (After Galaxy Hype).. Foams down south got that "Unwanted Jordan Hype" behind them. B.G.H. (Before Galaxy Hype) Foams did not sell out down south at all.. Stores really didnt get them.. It was much better days.. The only foams i really remember alot of hype over them, before the hype, was the Eggplants.. they sold out that night.. But it was all foam heads not the teens out to buy them to resell and things.. I liked the Galaxys but after seeing people selling them for 1,000+ and people in Miami being followed the West Palm Beach and robbed at gunpoint, it threw me off of the attention of that shoe.. If The galaxies enver came out, foams wouldnt be going for 2500 in my opinion.. the only 1,000+ would be those brown samples and the Foot Action Exclusive Volt Checks and Black/Black With The Clear Sole (which they NEED to retro).

I'd take the pearls.
Taxis you can find more easily and probably get a better deal.

FYI - if anyone buys the 2010 pearls, make sure you get good lighting pics.
A lot of pairs came with a blue dye on them.
