in all fairness, Meth could write he pees on the wall outside of the super market and he would get 20-40 reps, a gif in his honor, and all hail meth comments. he also posts far, far less than proto.

so he reps himself or something? #ntconspiracy

Damn, definitely unsure about a restock now, just saw that @Diplo on IG made a post saying thanks Nike, I hope Nike didn't send the extras to celebrities and he just copped from Flight Club or something. I just want a shot at retail when I'm awake and somewhat ready next to a computer or something

Victor Cruz was supposedly gifted a pair from Nike too

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

I agree with you except the tomato part 

 every shoe i've helped a friend out with has been for retail, or what i paid to get it.. doesn't matter if it's limited or not..

And i'm not hating on people that are charging their "friends" that crazy price.. i'm just saying that i wouldn't

Makes sense now. Highly doubting a restock now.

 

[squatchnt]

meh... the friend is losing out too. its not like ol boy had a ton of them and dude got the BEST trade that he would have come across BY FAR. im sure both guys look out for each other.

I equate it to when I used to collect comic books. we traded value for value but it wasn't a big deal because we weren't talking thousands of dollars in value.

I think the problem is the use of the term 'best friend'. My best friend is like brother to me and coulda got a dollar for dollar trade or a retail purchase.

i guess so. i hook up, or used to when i would get a lot of multiples, people all of the time. there are a couple exceptions when im like chill.... and its all good. this would have been one of those times. the trade looked like a compromise from my end. the best friend could have been trying to make a come up and didn't for ol dude.

That's kinda my point. My best friend woulda tell me if he was trying to make a come up. If it was my only pair I woulda told my best friend he was outta his rabbit *** mind LOL but if I it was double no problem. 

 

[bigj505]

its all case by case then. if i have a double, it wouldn't matter much for THIS shoe since im not keen on the idea of giving my friend $3000.

if its gamma XIs then sure, you got it buddy.

as a best friend, im 1000000% sure dude looks out frequently. i just don't understand why dudes made him like a villain.

 

[squatchnt]

I don't think he's being made out as a villain just not the best of best friends. I guess my point is the term best friend means different things to different people.

 

[jackhowell]

 
May anyone confirm whether these are real or not? It's for a friend. I'm pretty sure they're authentic but he wants to know.

The box sticker should have a dark red sticker in the top right, which these don't. Suggests to me that they're fake.

Diplo got his pair a while back though

You always find a way to top your last outlandish statement.

Nobody has a problem with paragraphs. People have a problem with long-winded posts with 5 paragraphs repeating the same rubbish over and over.

Methodical Management writes a long research paper for every single post he has. The difference is he actually brings something of value to his posts. His posts generally have useful information and he knows how to get his points across well. His 10 paragraph long posts are generally repped 20-40 times and QFT over and over.

I don't even read Protos posts because I feel less educated after having read them as if just reading them diminished my knowledge.

they do have a problem with paragraphs tho. i've seen 'em hate on a lot of other lengthy posts on this forum, not just mine. i think a lot of these people are younger and don't seem to care enough or have the attention span to have a proper, thorough discussion. as i said b4, on the music forums i frequent, lengthy posts are normal. if it's not something you're interested in discussing, or it's too long, then scroll past it. taking the time to post about "walls of text" is only a waste of your own time, and pointless. but why even care if someone wrote a lot? it doesn't bother you in any way, you can easily scroll right past it. if it was said in person, it wouldn't even take long to say, it's just down to being either not interested enough in the topic, or too lazy to read it.

that's a reach to say every paragraph of mine is repeating the same thing. it's normal to find diff ways of saying something, to drive your point home best. but a lot of times i make several diff points, not even directly related, if there's multiple paragraphs.

take my lengthy post about ye's adidas deal yesterday, and the in's and out's of his reasons for leaving nike, who's taking the biggest L, and kinda outlining everything about it. that post wasn't just the same point over and over, and i'm sure it was very informative for those who didn't know all of that (hence, why it got repped a few times), and also my own opinion about things, providing an alternate way for people to look at the situation (in example, how nike is taking more of an L than him, etc).

the meth thing is a huge reach. i've seen him do the same thing, using diff examples, diff ways of saying something, all to say the same thing. and like bigj said, he gets repped regardless of what he says, because of who he is, and the respect he's earned since 1999. half these kids who rep him may not have even read the whole post sometimes.

that's fine you find nothing informative in my posts, i'm not here to please everybody. on the other side of the coin, i've had a ton of people repeatedly say i contribute a lot to this forum, lots of helpful info and insight, etc, etc... as far as this thread goes, i provided the very first, detailed pix of the yeezy 2 model, to this forum, and the world, and a lot of people remember that... all that that said tho, i'm not perfect, i don't try to have perfect grammar on here, and i'm sure i say the same thing too much, but you have to realize a lot of times, just cuz you've read me say it b4, doesn't mean new people have. and a lot of times, people conveniently overlook what i actually say, or twist it into something i didn't really say, to support their hateful agenda, so i do end up saying it again.

If I would have got two pairs, I would have just sold my second pair to my best friend for 250$ that's what I'd have done.

 

[theshoewizard]

It's simple.  You don't profit off your best friend.  If you do, then he isn't your best friend.

If you are going to try and make some quick cash in a large amount and are going to sell them, simply DON'T sell them to your best friend.  Tell him, "hey, I need to make some money off this purchase and I wouldn't feel right about charging you anything over retail/what i payed."

If you aren't looking to profit largely or at all off these shoes, then you give them to your best friend for COST if he really wants them.  Any other scenario = you aren't best friends or you're just a terrible friend period.

 

[leclutchjames]

Yup, I don't care if it's ten pairs made, if I got two and my best friend wanted them to wear then yes, whatever price it cost to get them after tax is what I'm making them pay.

Not gonna lie. Every time I see a Proto block of text I tell myself I'll read it but I never do, I'm sure there's some points in there

He just posted it on IG about 7 hours ago.  You might be thinking of someone else.

Still tough to find a size 8. Seems all all sizes 9-12
