Your chances are slim to none that somebody will take those for RO's. If anything, they would take 1 or 2 shoes and make you add atleast 2.5 to 2.8k. Dude is right though... you should just sell as much as you can to give you more options since majority of people that have these want cash.

okay officially sold a pair of RO's to a guy in S. Korea for 3.6k ... they have a sneakerhead market there that didnt have a chance to cop.. so if you can't find any customers in the US try to find a connect overseas.

I don't understand why the resellers are waiting until now to sell their pairs? The market peaked during the first week.
Selling now is just foolish. Some of y'all are leaving 1.5-2.5k on the table because you took your time to come to the conclusion that you wanted to sell
Either that or you fell into the idiotic reseller category and listed at $10,000 and when people offered you 5.5-6k you laughed them off.
Now the only way you're going to get close to those peak first week prices is by playing the wait game. And that'll take anywhere from 2-4 years (assuming ndc doesn't move anymore pairs).

I listed mine when I got the Nike confirmation. Was one of the idiots who listed at $8,000 based on the Ebay prices at the time. Crazy but I actually got a bite. Dude called me and everything ready to pay immediately but something about the deal didn't sit well and with all the horror stories and my boy PO2345 sending me videos and stories and reasons not to do certain deals, I panicked and passed. Wanted to do FC but was told a few pairs had gotten "lost" in the mail so I said hell naw to that too. Ya'll say dealing with Paypal with these is sneaker suicide so I'm scared to go that route too.I don't understand why the resellers are waiting until now to sell their pairs?

So now I'm sitting with a pair of shoes worth thousands that I have absolutely no interest in and can't seem to move em at a respectable price. People keep hitting me up talking bout "I got money right now!" and then flaking. I'm not even trying to tax boys I just want what I know I can get for em. Straight headache. I don't see how cats do this resell mess on a regular basis.

^ if you don't want them, and have no interest in them, I can give you double what you paid . That's twice their worth!

...I mean I'm glad I have them for obvious reasons don't get me wrong but I'm just not really a fan of Yeezys and have no desire to actually wear them. Good one though lol- Preciate it.

Instead of this thesis on how hard it is to sell your shoes, try listing in the classified section and only selling to a legitimate member. OR trade them for a group of shoes that you can liquidate at a much smaller level of risk.

I have them listed in the classified section. Every time I come to an agreed upon price with a potential buyer they flake for whatever reason.
And my post wasn't meant as a complaint or looking for compassion. I was just giving my experience that I've had so far with trying to move em.

Crazy then. Most people that have wanted to unload their pairs haven't had that much of a problem.

Definitely a lot of flakers out there. Probably had at least 10 flake on me AFTER agreeing on a deal. Sorta going through the same as you

That's what I'm thinking. Especially dealing online. Crazy thing though my barber is kind of a lightweight "celebrity barber". He called me the other day asking if I still had my RO and was still wanting to get off of em. He didn't even ask a price, he had a cat who was about to run me 5 stacks for em off top. Ended up he needed a 10.5 and mine are a 12. I was sick.

So has something happened that i missed that caused the value on these to plummet?
i have been trying to cop a pair for a while and now a seller who wanted 4500 for these hit me up and is willing to let em go
for 3k (im guessing hes having a hard time offloading but now i feel that 3k is still too high for these)
whats the current MP on these and what would be a good price to buy em for
thanks

No one wants to sell to me, I've even started throwing offers of 3 Stacks and still getting turned down.
