Just gave in and copped for $260.00
Didnt want to bother with release date b.s.

These shoes have too much sentimental value to me so I said the hell with it

Come on my friend, why did you give in? We're trying to keep resale as low as possible or eliminate an chance of profit altogether.

Shoes 215/220 easy with tax/shipping so it's not a real profit there. He paid 40 to chill and sit back. Not like paying 500 extra for some yeezys or something lol

Still, the price on shoes could be lower than that if we as a community stop paying these prices at the first sight of them. That's how some people think the Black Infrareds are worth almost $300; people are already trying to set the price for the secondary market.

This is on a completely different topic, but why are 2001 Air Jordan 1s going for so much now?

Naturally prices will increase once supply diminishes and some people want the older models for collection purposes or to wear (either it be to preserve their 2013s or just to wear in general). These people will pay the prices the seller sets even if it's with No Vaseline.

It wasn't like that last year with the 6's in new york from what I remember.

I know I over paid but I wanted these and the next few releases bad.

You're a reseller, don't you have a plug?

How do I know when and where? Or just go in store next week and get a number? I'm looking on footlocker etc, and they don't even show the release yet.

Are they still releasing online? I saw some thing saying hyped releases would be in store raffles only?

Sorry, I'm clueless, it has been a while. Thank you for helping.

No problem. These will be online and in store.

Ftl and other stores may not have launch locators up until late this week early next week.

They will tweet it when it's up. Go to as many stores as possible sign up for a raffle to increase chances of winning.
Online NDC/Others will tweet a link when they drop on the 27th click and follow the normal steps to check out.

BF are easy if you.put in the.work and have patience. I copped my Infrared 6s vis eastbays moblie site while working BF.

Hopefully I can just go online and cop at 10am from NDC like I've done in the past. If not, I'm just going to pay a eBay reseller and let them do the leg work. Id rather pay a extra $50 to not deal with bs.

This is some of the reason. I believe the biggest is that one person that has the Ordinal direction child.

Debating on doing the same. Last year's release was cake on NDC for me. I don't feel like dealing with the crowd.

Yes, I consider him (Kanye) a small factor too but not that much.

Imo he's the biggest. Just look at those vans he was recently spotted in. I never seen or even heard of them then i seen he wore them and then a couple days later BOOOOM. They were sold out. He has a big influence in the sneaker market.

i agree but this was a retail store with a nike account charging resell prices
i could have waited and had my "plug" at FLT and hold me down but i very much wanted these shoes

i have not had a serious "plug" for years where i can make real money off shoes the only thing i resell now my internet friends is the shoes i already own

besides a few retro releases their is no more money in GR shoes for a number of reasons
