Need tagged and dated pics. :lol:

If I was sitting on that many, then they'd be long gone by now. I'd definitely keep two pairs to wear tho. Glad I own a pair.

Truth, At The Time It Was Definitely A No Brainer... Especially With All The Looming Restock Rumors After The Release Turned Out As Limited As It Was. We All Know How That Panned Out :lol:

Bro, I sold shadows for $180 shipped to a few NTers. the heartache when I went to FC to sell some stuff and they said $600 for shadows to a customer
 
i unknowingly bought the wrong size since i didnt know my true size. royals , shadow , black toe , black and white lance mountain sitting in a size 9. by how much you guys talk about them i figure i have about $1,500 right there. tooo lazy to post them. shame since i really just want my size to legit wear them
 
damb sorta wish i woudlve kept my royals. but joints were so uncomfortable
 
When the Royals come out again I might grab a pair but this is my list:

(OG Colorways)

1.Bred

2. Chicago

3. Black and Whate

4. Royal
 
Shadows were sitting, my bro copped 2 pairs in vegas.  I sold my ds pair for 180 like a dumbass, still regret it to this day.

@trappedintime Yeah....i'm not sure you really thought this through. JB is a subsidiary of Nike so its profit is counted within Nike's earnings report. Nike has a 50% global share of the sneaker market (47% Nike; 3% converse) which means even when folks buy another brand of sneaker they probably also have a pair of Nike's as well. With that saturation Nike's in the biz of convincing Nike owners to pay more for the sneakers they'll buy anyway and to convince those who have bought Nike's to stay with Nike. Your machevellian posit has Nike trying to cultivate a reseller market that nets them nothing - repeat buyers, buyers who increase their buy, etc. Resellers add nothing to Nike's bottom line, that's profit they never see. They spend quite a bit on marketing already and arguably do a good job .... Down to getting free media from the playoffs through the finals as folks check for who's wearing what come game time. The only reason bots matter to Nike is because it's starting to eat into it's profit margin .... Through NDC/SNKRS. Bots on FTL, FTA, EB, et al doesn't matter cause Nike gets its share regardless the reason why those online CHIs sales happened.

Why do the bots eat into Nike's profit margin? Nike is selling (in this case) sneakers for $160 via NDC/SNKRS. They get that $160 whether they sell to a bot/reseller or sell to a consumer who actually wants the sneaker. With FTL/FTA/EB, Nike sells the sneakers to the retailers at wholesale prices, so let's say 50% or $80 for the sake of simplicity. Sales via FTL/FTA/EB seem like they'd be less profitable to Nike compared to NDC/SNKRS. What am I missing? One could argue that Nike is eating into its own profit margins by underpricing (they could increase top line per shoe while holding costs constant) or undersupplying (they could maintain current pricing but reduce costs by displacing fixed costs over larger production runs), but Nike isn't dumb, so I imagine there's a good reason why it's doing what it's doing.

I think you're sitting on more than $1500, depending size and condition.

So Much Sole 23 So Much Sole 23 I don't blame you. If I was able to grab that many on release day, then I'd do the same. Never said you tried to front tho. I see how you cook on these releases. :smokin

Edit: thought they were all DS
