I know we all hate resellers, but what about the average seller who just flips his kicks????? We have a pick up post, and a "i cant believe i got thesefor such a lot price" post. Why not have a best flip post???? Let me know what you think cuz i have quite a few and was wondering if there is anyone elseout there that has done the same.. (example: buying a shoe for $10 at a garage sale, you dont want to keep it so you sold it and got $300 for it)

just wondering,
i can see the flames already!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just flipped a pair of Undefeated dunks for $270 that I traded for 2 xbox games.

On a volume level, i got sum'n like 45 pair ofwht/wht shox classics for $33.99 from finishline and flipped them all for $69+. I bought a pair of barracuda (elephant/cement print) air max 1 NL from anoutlet int the carolinas for $49, wore them to a sole colector event, then flipped them for $140. went to that same outlet, bought the lady V's (grey/pink)b-grade for $19, flipped every pair (18) for $59+. when the blue foam pro's came out I flipped them all for $280...i just used buy it now, then bought themfrom a hole in the wall ma and pa when they sold...did'nt have to tie any $$$ inventory.

in one day i am going to have the best flip i have ever had.....i will post when it goes through i dont want to jinx it......griffey's what??????
 
^^^when you list those, dont let people bid. they will not get bid as high as you want b/c they are not a dunk or a jordan, these are more of a grail shoe, soyou have to instead list them as a buy it now for what you want. use the make an offer feature. it may take a little longer then you want, but someone willbite.
 
Interesting thread, I flip sneakers on ISS to pay for my own sneakers. I bought some Reebok Ventilators for $23.00 shipped and traded it to some kid for GreenBean V's that I ended up selling for $90.00 shipped. I bought NDS (5/10 condition) XII's Taxi low and Coral Pink VI's for $20.00 shipped. Sold theVI's for $60.00 meetup and then traded XII's for AM 95's and 10 dollars, then sold the AM 95's for $53.00. I bought some OG Uptempo's forlike $15.00 and sold them for $80.00. I bought OG Super CB's for $15.00 and sold them for $60.00. All the shoes were 7Y and under. I got more stuff comingin to flip.
 
Bought ds white cement 4's sz 12 for $180. Got $715 for them for last year. Best flip for one pair so far for me.
 
just completed my best flip to date....bought some DS Nike Air Griffey Max sz 7.5 for $20.....and i just completed the sale at $550 shipped............now ijust have to think about what kicks i want to replace those....????? and i might get my Infrared 90's off for $300+ in a few days, i paid $49 for them atfootlocker, sale + 30% off friends and family!!!!!!!!



i dont know if anyone has seen my post in another thread about total collection value....i am trying to get my big boy car (S500 or something like it) boughtand paid for and then its a down payment on a new house.....4 shoes just under 2g's is not a bad start!!!!!
 
Buying these ICEY OG Columbia XI's for $350... And then flippin' them about 6 months later for$1,100... They weren't even for sale, but I couldn't say no to that offer...

Didn't even search for a buyer, the buyer came to me from the picture on my MySpace... Funny thing is, I kinda want them back afterlooking at this picture... Brings back memories...

Those are in amazing condition. They don't even look like they were made yesterday, it looks like it's never touched air before.
