Hey NikeTalk, first of all, thanks for all the love in the forum! 

I'm writing because I was just about to spend $300 on a pair of VNDS 88 3's, and had some second thoughts, just because theres other pairs out there that I've also been eyeing at that price range. 

Basically, what I've narrowed it down to is:

VNDS Jordan III White Cement 88's

DS/VNDS Jordan III True Blues

VNDS Jordan XI Space Jams

VNDS Jordan XI Concords

Let me know what you guys think.

i'm really particular about the shoes i wear, they always have to be DS. i won't feel comfortable wearing a pair of shoes that somebody has already sweated in.

on a side note, i've been guilty of using my girlfriend's toothbrush a few times however.

I definitely feel you on that... I just wish the prices on DS pairs weren't so far apart.

Everyone says gently used, worn once on carpet, tried on and walked around the store.

Whatever.

The fact remains the shoe is used.  How used?  You will never know the truth.

And that is the one and only reason why I never buy used shoes VNDS, VVNDS, 9.923/10 or Whatever the kiddies are calling it these days.

I can definitely understand the love for the jams. The one gripe I have against them is the overall shape differences between the jams and the newer and older released XI's. A lot have compared the shape to the CDP breds, which I think is pretty accurate. If the shape was like the newer XI's I'd probably be all in on the Jams too, but that doesn't mean I won't end up getting them.
