People gotta just be patient and understand the system. eBay prices are always inflated the first week, because people are scrambling. Give it 3 to 4 weeks and the prices drop closer to retail. And a lot of these eBay auctions have the sellers shill bidding.

Man i feel bad for all my homies from my hometown in NJ. A lot of them are real salty about this release. The release was so smooth at holyoke mall in MA. I literally got there at roughly 8am and was out by 9:30 with a pair, and foot locker still didnt even open yet and that line was only like 15 people. Im real happy i stocked up on these, ive been waiting a long time.

People should keep their greedy rip offs to themselves.

Finishline is a diaster. You can never, and I mean never count on them to come thru.
I would say approximately 75% of the orders I placed with FNL the past 3 years got cancelled.
Remember, they don't ship from a warehouse, they ship from individual stores.
Of course with hot releases, the store mgr just replies back that size was not available and then it gets cancelled.
Crappy company, crappy system crappy name...

If people are willing to pay it it's not a rip off, I didn't force them to buy em. I even had someone on the way to buy em for 3 bills, but I sold em to the other guy for 270.. Don't hate the playa hate the game

I don't even know why people try them on release night. Might as well go to NDC, Eastbay, Foot Locker or Champs (the latter three using the same system) and know you will likely get your order if you place it. Just overall better companies.

Every time some chump pays that much and then another chump tells the community they got that price it starts to set the market for that price. That's why it takes 3-4 weeks to come down to 200-225. You can do whatever you want, but many people got shut out and telling how much you got for them does nothing for anyone. Point being you flipped a pair someone else would have bought. No need to bring that in here, let alone brag about the $100 profit.

Yeah, I feel the same way...but when NDC is telling you they are resetting their servers and Eastbay is showing you a crazy timer, you reach out to whatever you can at 2 in the morning.
Whole time I was ordering, I was like "This isnt going to work" but maybe I'll be part of the 75%

Yea bro, being from NJ we have an over abundence of sneakerheads and resellers.
Often at a release you will see on line a a 12 year old kid, his sister, father, mother and 2 year old baby brother in a stroller.
The store has to give a pair to everyone of them including the two year old!
For the Yellow foam release about a month ago there was a group of 5 Indian ladies in their 30's -50's on line. I struck up a conversation with them to
ask why on earth they were buying yellow foams. I assumed for their kids but I was wrong. No BS, there response was to make easy money!
One of them read in the newspaper about all the money to be made from reselling sneakers.
It's really gotten crazy folks, really crazy.

Also, I'd add JimmyJazz to the list of good online retailers. Their site gets hammered and is a pain, but I've had decent luck. I missed out last night, but somehow at 5 AM they emailed me and said the 2 pairs I had in my cart were actually available and sent me a link to checkout. By the time I woke up they were sold out again, but at least they tried to help me out.

Glad I had a lil plug for this one.. She saved a 9.5 and 10 for me to try on..
You guys were right.. I tried the 9.5 and it fits better than my true sz 10.
So atleast half sz down is my recommendation as well.
I was going to get my brother his sz 11 but I even got him half sz down too.
Glad to have one pair in hand while the other comes in..
