I want this pair badly but I've been burned too many times with qc to want to pay resale. I can deal with some imperfections at retail but not at resale price lol.
Man I hope I get these....I was too broke to be a collector when the 6's came out. The first pair of Kobes I had was the 5's (Lakers home cw) thanks to grandma on my bday. Once I got a ft job I turned into a pretty big collector. I started with the 8's and never stopped!
As a lifelong Kobe fan...
