ADIDAS x YEEZY COLLAB OFFICIAL THREAD *2016 thread link 1st page*

[sphynx]

yea and by the looks of it demand is sky high for these

Which is diluted when you think about the fact that A LOT of that demand has been people who want these because of what they think they can get by reselling them

 

[casper90403]

who gives a damn how much these are going to be worth!!

 

[tay1]

We need to quote this guy who believes prices will fall.

 

[geeplus]

Some dudes justifying that 800-1000 like its something, If you really need the money that bad then just admit it and move on.

 

[blattgtv]

What are you guys on about? 

Assume 5.000 pairs were dropped, and 100.000 people tried. How does then the demand fall short to the supply? 

For some people $1000, 2000 or even 3000 aint **** when buying sneakers like these.

I'm poor

I'll sell my size 8 if the market reaches 1k+. I don't think any sneaker is worth that much money because in reality it costs Adidas probably $50 or less to make it

 

[shayan3023]

Also keep in mind that these yeezys are popular to the general public. I have tons of friends who dislike yeezys but like these due to their simply style. So regardless who these being the least limited, A LOT more ppl want them this go around, even the casual consumer who didnt care about previous yeezy's.

Way less than $50. Probably $18.25.

Agreed. Thats me. I think all yeezy's are ugly but these are right up my alley.

even the masses have been wrong about hype, resale, production numbers, etc.... so what difference does it make? 

people are right, and people are wrong

the sneaker market is nothing but A GUESS in the first place

so not even sure what you're trying to prove

 

[sphynx]

Also y'all forget that there's gonna be mad people who are gonna be sick when they go outside in the next few weeks and see hella people flexing in these (which is something you have rarely seen on a Yeezy release) 

I know that's how a lot of people be thinking.

These are the Yeezys that the most people will have, by the sheer numbers produced. That will make them the least appealing, and the least sought after to most.

I always see y'all talking bout "breaking necks" and wanting sneakers for that reason.

These are the Yeezys that will break the fewest necks in the long-run, thus they will be the least popular

too many post to read back, but did some peoples adidas orders shipping get delayed? 

since theres so much bs going on, probably no one will answer you. But yeah those who ordered from Adidas and i think paid 1-2 Day shipping and also might be located in the west coast, got a 1 Day delay in shipping. Expected delivery for most is wednesday with that 1-2 day shipping, mine is expected tomorrow but with free 4-7 day shipping. Then again, I am on the east coast

Hopefully they'll be more or I get as lucky as I did with these.

yeah me too. Whats up man, thought you were in NYC. Then I find out you in LA? the other  tong yung gai? lol

Can't prove what's already proven brochacho. These aren't going to go under 800.

Probably some poor 8 year old Malaysian kid making these shoes

do you really love lamp or are you just saying that? 

lol btw did you get your shipping confirm yet?

Mine got delayed

I chatted with UPS they said I'll have them by tomorrow

The "Delay" in my case meant that I wouldn't get them today, but that they are in transit, and will be at my house by tomorrow (Tuesday)

Not sure why people are saying Wednesday, or who they talked to who told them that

Nah

if u not on that Yeezy hype ur not paying 700$ plus for these resell you would just buy some Roshe's.

The Yeezy name is what driving up the price not the amazing style and quality that only Adidas can provide

Sorry the causal consumer like someone's mom or dad or even some old war vet that signed up at Adidas and picked up his pair before I got my pairs. Kept 100 and was putting them up for sale to pay for a trip!

the causal consumer is a eBay member flipping with that 0-4 star rating son.

i hope you cop. bc you sounding like a salty kid who struck out on the 350s

your "proof" is past releases.... 

past releases which had a completely different set of circumstances than these 

this is exactly why the market is so unpredictable.... there are never any constants

Lol, actually I'm in Seattle. But I think there's a tong yun gai everywhere. Don't you guys have like 3 in NY?

I think at the end of the day, when all the initial hype has died down, this will be a $500-$700 dollar sneaker 

Pretty sure it'll stay in that ballpark. No way these hit anywhere close to the $2000-$4000 average on the Nike joints or the 750

ESPECIALLY because there will be other (more sought after) collorways, like the black joints. Also if they keep raising the production numbers, that'll also have an effect

These will eventually be an afterthought in the grad scheme of Yeezy releases

No one said 2-4k but unless they keep producing these (which is VERY unlikely), the price will surely increase. The more sought after colorways from the Y2 didn't stop the Plats from going for a few thousand. Plus, like it or not, there's still a huge demand for these. If the demand still far outweighs the supply, it doesn't matter how many pairs are produced.
