Air Jordan 3Lab5 "Metallic" - Releasing Fall 2014?

Just picked up a pair for $275. Compared it my original 3lab5s....the quality on the metallics is TRASH. The cement print is of way lower quality and just overall looks of poorly put together. Really debating on keeping them or not. Only thing making me want to keep them is that they're an all black sneaker that I can wear everyday. The first ones were made of good quality and can be worn as beaters that would last.....I doubt the metallics
 
I was able to score another sz 14 on mobile off EB at 3:25.....

No worries, thanks for helpin out and letting us know about these other sites.

I honestly don't know of any other industry/walk of life that's as cutthroat as this shoe stuff

Thanks for pointing that out, however, DO NOT CONTACT ONENESS, THESE PEOPLE ARE FRAUDS AND DO NOT DESERVE ANYONE'S BUSINESS

Here is how our email conversation went:

     Me: "I would like to purchase the black/metallic Jordan 3LAB5 in a size 10.5. Thank you."
     Oneness: "for $350!"
     Me: "On your website it says that these are being sold for $225, is this no longer the case?"
     Oneness: "no sir! $350"

Not sure if anyone else had the same experience as me, but I wanted to make sure others don't waste their time by getting scammed by them. If the price on their website said $350 I wouldn't have any issue, but to bait people into contacting them and then to blatantly lie about the pricing is just disgusting and to me says a lot about who's running that place :smh:

A lot of boutiques do that, nothing new.
 
A few hours copped some for retail at a local Foot Action via an unclaimed pair from a raffle.
I thought I missed out on these but glad to obtain them.
 
 like these the most out of all the lab series that came out they look good in some of the pics,

I won the raffle but i saw them in person today & passed... wasted my time, i asked them if i could peep it too when i was raffling, but the managers a b tch.

My guess is they took pre orders at $225 or sold 9-10 pairs for that. Then listed all their pairs on ebay. Then they probably will tell the people who bought the shoes for $225 that they missed out on the shoes or their connect didnt come thru, then they will refund those people with the money they have from their ebay sales and then whatever they have left is profit. Thats insta-capital for some of these reseller clowns. Not the way to do it though.
 
I like that Post ^^^^ the one above @gopre

I should'd pulled the trigger this morning when these were easy on Champs…. but opted out!

there's just so much fire coming out Aug…. why throw $250 on these i figured when i could use that towards Blue Cement 3's or Blue 6's

or even a pair of Cement 88's 3's on EBay i been Eyeing for $250 shipped

Even thou these are probably the BEST 3LAB5 out of allllllllllllllllllll the 3lab's So Far…...

You have been advertising that website couple of times just on the last page.. I don't know if thats your website or is an affiliate on that website, but hope you get something out of it for your effort...

No affiliation with them just thought I'd let anyone know that missed out that they had sizes left ... I got a good deal on the 2ks so just thought I'd spread the word about the website...sorry if I broke any rules or if anyone was offended by my post
 
I'm waiting for it………. Someone is gonna paint that Back Heel Band Black…..

MARK MY WORDS…it's coming

Thanx for clarifying your intentions. .. Everybody is different , for me if i paid more than twice the msrp that reseller does not deserve any free plug from me, they already made 200% profit from me and giving me 5$ less than current resell price does not make me feel like i owe them a favor...

I understand where your coming from but if I find a reseller that is offering a sneaker for twice msrp and you know they could get three times the retail price then I don't mind giving a shout out....I mean im buying the sneaker regardless so that reseller saved me money

If someone sells me an authentic pair, double boxed, and shipped within a timely manner I'd be happy to recommend that person regardless of cost.

The reseller didn't make me pay double retail or $20 over retail, once you've decided to pay resale and agreed on a price the only gripe you can have is if you get fakes or the shoes are shipped late with bad packaging.
 
i never buy resale :)) the only shoes i paid resale was a roshe run. all Js i cop are either #teamretail or #teambelowretail :))

 thats why i still don't have the grails

I pay resale if I miss out but also grab extra pairs on most releases, it all evens out.
 
They are going for that correct. Not selling for that. Give it a few days. Resellers are not making money off this.
