I just saw what a Red October looks like in February so I'm not well versed in this arena. I found this site trying to figure out what was wrong with the Adidas site when trying to buy the 750, so I'm brand new to yeezys and this shoe culture stuff. What I've concluded is that if Yeezy made them and they are limited, they will sell for high dollar. But these aren't as limited, and as people have stated here the prices are looking low right now.

You can't use that excuse anymore. That "it released at PacSun" **** is getting old they had limited amount of pairs and a lot of people still struck out on these.

Correct. I know everyone's hates resellers here and I don't like the reseller that bought the size 6 750 boost but oh well. This would be my first attempt at resell so shoot me. I haven't paid for them yet, I'm still thinking about it, but I'm always up for a bargain.

I´m not knocking reselling. I thought about selling my 350s too for a moment.

But buying them at triple the retail price already to milk out another few dollars seems greedy to me. And far to risky.

A lot of people bought these for the sole intention of reselling not cause they liked em. Which is why the market is flooded with pairs. Jordan's release in multiple stores they still sellout people still strike out. What's so different between Jordan's and this Yeezy release?

so you correctly predicted they would balloon to $1400+ then settle under $800 & then jump again
 
damn have you guys seen the new UA's?

looks spot on minus the size tag.

What? I wanted the 350's but then didn't try once they were released so no I didn't struck out because I had stuff to do that day. I even posted here I didn't try. Saw these on eBay for $200, once they went over that I was just going to sell them and get something that I want. Resellers do mess up the market. I am messing up the market, but when there Is an opportunity to make a profit I will take advantage. In a previous posts I also said I can't blame resellers. They mess up the market because people allow them too. And I didn't boast about my money, I'm saying I make a range but don't spend a lot of money on shoes, which is true. Boasting would be saying I make 6 figures so I'm going to buy 5 pairs because it's nothing to me. Please go back and read my previous posts, if you're going to try and call me out at least know what I said.

If you make 6 figures, losing a few dollars shouldn't have you THAT worked up. You should have known the risk when you decided to bid
 
she contradicts herself a lot. Said she wasn't boasting about her salary but made a few posts saying she makes a 6 figure salary. Saying she thought the 350 were ugly, then saying it grew on her. Said she was only interested in getting these to wear, now she' wants to flip them. Said she doesn't even pay retail let alone resell, yet she's paid $1300 for 750 Boost and now $620 for 350 Boost.

I always put in a high price so I don't have to go back and bid, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only that does that.

So what would you have done if someone bid them up that high? How would you sell them for a profit then? *****WDBS

So many people ate though. The market for yeezys at retail is very large and that market starts getting very small the higher resale goes.
These will eventually go up in price but the 750 expectation is unrealistic. The primary reason 750s are going for so much is because people were expecting another release that never happened add that to the fact that they were the most limited yeezys(outside of the lvs).

A lot of people that struck out on 350s are also content with waiting for the next release and if the current pattern holds there might be even more pairs of those available than there are of these.

A couple consignment shops have 350s up right now for 900-1000 and they aren't moving, even if they sold the sellers would only receive 700-800 which is the max 350s should be going for. Anybody looking for more better be very patient.

doesn't even matter. If you were around during the first Yeezy drop you would know that those we pretty easily attainable and if you struck out they were going for $500 for quite a while. It wasnt until a few years ago where everyone and their mamas started to collect shoes which drove market prices up. Just because these were widely available, MAJORITY STILL struck out and are still looking.
