Yeah....I dont see it easing up anywhere in the near future....Guess its time to pull the trigger....especially with:
1.) Sizes getting scarce..
2.) Fakes done hit the market...SMDH

They'll only keep pushing the limit as to what ppl are willing to pay.. If ppl keep paying, the prices will keep rising, Let em' sit. Ppl here always hate on resellers but pay what they ask, they need your money far worse than you need their shoes.
Im a sz 13/14 and will never see these on my feet at these prices, I get the urge to wanna cop and all but we all need to realize we created the resellers and these crazy prices by giving them a previously underexploited cash source. Easy $$ every release for those with the means.
If youre gonna pay it, more power to you, thats your hard earned money spend it how you like. But just realize you are only showing them what they can charge next time a release gets crazy like this.

This is so very true....Just kickin myself, cause my cousin (a reseller) had me a pair secured for $215....But I had beat the bot(s) for the KD BHM, so I tried my hand with these....To NO AVAIL...
Lesson learned, cause he rarely hits me more than $35-$50 on any release.

Am soooo wit you on that on.....No knock to Yeezy....But that just not a shoe I am crazy about....And surely wouldn't pay RACKS for....
Was sitting at my computer when they released (wit time to copp) but not a shoe for me (and not having a reseller state of mind), I passed, only to go on Instagram 20min later, and a L.A. sneaker store was immediately offering $300.00 for any and all pairs, with valid nike order confirmation...CRAZY!

Yeah....anything after this weekend....is gonna be a very iffy copp....
Guy just (2hrs ago) tried to get me for $250....As much as I would have like for it to be legit....My Spidey Senses said otherwise.
P.S. Check NT, and he had try to dup others.....THATS the B.S. I don't feel, and is blatant disrespect to, and screwing up, the CULTURE/GAME/COMMUNITY!

Wish i had held onto my pairs a bit longer, let both my sz8.5 and 14 go for 315+shipping...just needed the cash so i went for a quick flip, almost doubling up aint bad though. I agree these will probay reach and stay ~5-600$ mark unless nike includes these in a restock, and even then i dont see them dropping below 450$ EVER in the future.
As far as the color argument goes, THE SAME color paint will take differently when applied to two different types of material(or as with art, canvas if you will), i sincerely believe the white infrared's and the infrared23/black pair are the same color. The reason for the infrared23 pair looking darker is because it is on the entire upper which is tumbled leather, vs. On the white the paint being on the midsole. Two different materials the paint was applied to which causes the paint to absorb and display a bit differently.
All things being equal, with how low quality JB releases have been recently(i personally havent had any quality problems, but hear about them constantly) does one really think they'd spend extra money on getting two different but nearly identical color paints for a shoe? I doubt it, its much cheaper to order/make one color paint and mass produce/order it in high quantities then it is to order/make two, especially for 'color(s)' so close to one another.

I'm sorry for those who dislike the resell talk on this thread, but i must be honest with yall. Yall are the ppl who will cop, so do it now before its a true collector's item. Ppl including myself are stashing away multiple pairs for a future trade/life emergency fund. Homie above sold a sz 14 for 315 + shipping! We know how sz 14's sit. I am not here to feed the hype ( i would have done that pre-release if that was my intentions) but if someone saw them already for 600, then yall know the deal.

Lol i should've held em a lil longer, could of gotten much more but it is what it is. Like i said, cant complain much about almost doubling the cost. I would like to find a sz12 for a somewhat reasonable price for the collection, but at the end of the day, these are NOT a must have for me personally. Id much rather two pair of Carmines(one to rock, one to stock).

Me myself...have NOT ONE PROB wit the resell game....hey...its a hustle...
Do I agree with Nike not producing a tad bit more of some releases....or not in some way curbing the bot situation to allow more regular customers to obtain a pair...No....but hey, why would they trade that of for their record 5-10min sellouts.
NOW...as for the discontent of some about resell talk....Man get over it....Your gonna do you...and people are gonna continue to have their say...Its human nature....
The problem with forums is just this....
If your saying something that someone behind a keyboard (located lords knows where) doesn't like....Yeah....their gonna do and gang of hoott'in and holler'in.....Listen...FREE SPEECH is in the Constitution.
Though I've checked NT out for some years now....I never made an account, for that reason...I not gonna sit there bickering wit someone I'll never meet....It's senseless.
Two things prompted me to make an account:
1.) Asking a RESELLER about some shoe....which I have no qualms wit....plus dude was pretty cool
2.) I had seen some guys on this thread saying they were looking for some Bred 1's and some Royal 1's, for a reasonable ticket.....Hell....I ran across a spot that had both, so the first thing I did after
establishing me account was to PM one of them about the spot to get what they were looking for (Bred & Royal)...Because thats what I consider, and thought forums where there for....Not Keyboard/Sneaker Gangsters...C'mon, that ain't what this is suppose to be about...Nor is it suppose to be about snide remarks....But hey....it is what it is.
Well...I know one of, if not the next comment is gonna be a Keyboard/Sneaker Gangster, with a snide remark....So I bid you guy adieu, as I see, as I said...Its is what it is....and gonna be, what its gonna be!!!
But remember....This forum was started (at least I think so) to converse, help, and build with each other.....COMMUNITIES THRIVE OFF SUPPORT, not just the opposite.
