Nike Air Jordan 1 Retro "UNC" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

I just keep boxes from shoes i've ordered if I know I'll be sending one out.
Hell Yeah..

but sometimes the Plain Box ends up costing more then the Flat Rate depending on where you live and shipping to in the USA!
 
never spent over $20 at USPS priority mail double boxed from CA to anywhere in the USA. $30-40?!?!? :{ literally throwing away your money
 
For every 10 pairs he shipped ...He could've saved $$ and got a pair of Jordans for free!

The $30-40 shipping is that UPS/FedEx route .... Surprisingly even my stuff from overseas doesn't charge that much for shipping.
 
ISS be brave for keeping their resale price of the UNC 1s at $299 while a good number of resellers are dropping their prices to the $220-$230, them shoes are gonna stay stocked in their supply room for months at this rate (not like that hurts them anyway, they have tons of hyped Jordans still stocked on their site)

He is correct.

Yes it is $30-$40 sometimes depending on location,weight,size and insurance value with USPS.

Post Office has this thing called a Dimension Fee on plain box priority mail shipping which is usually  $8-15 extra a package now.However if you pay online the price is way cheaper.

UPS gets to most places except Cali for $20 or so in 2-4 days.

I have never done that trick on priority boxes but its the best bet money wise.

How? Are you using a plain box and buying 2-3 day priority? I only do priority if I'm using a priority box.

When I ship shoes, you get a regular box and regular shipping with either signature or insurance. You might still get them in 3 days depending on where you live. Latest would be 5.

Is it bad to lie about weight on PayPal for shipping?

Let's just say this...

I've had the Post Office Clerk weight the USPS box alone without the item even in it!

and my package was delivered exactly on time

Places like that always charge a premium because they have the rep of being legit. Pay a little extra for that piece of mind

if you do, post office will charge you for the pounds you didn't add, happened to me a few times when I was a few ounces off from what I weighed it at 
 
Word I had my pears locked down months before the release. It did prove to be inconvenient with the release date change but time and effort was saved. My weekend has been chill. It sucks to get the eyeball for indulging in your passion. Trust me too much time on NT is never q clean look if you don't want the fam or the wiz to be all aggy cuz you in the forums all times of the day. I don't mean to ruffle feathers but I expected way more pizza pics than this. Money will always come back...time doesn't
Yea man the release date had me confused last week some people were telling me the 10th and others the 30th, I don't have local connects seeing they get backdoored in my area and was always hesitant towards bots too seeing idk much about them. I've always been lucky post 15' with local cats and getting them off sites other then footlocker, champs FNL, etc. These are most likely my last Jordan purchase of the year unless I try to get the maroon 6's which i'm debating on, so I might as well drop 250 because if they hit the steady 300's i'mma just take my L. :lol: not pushing any NT's to lower there asking prices but also trying not to be a nuisance if they don't accept my offer on to the next one some are more negotiable then others and look at profit as profit over the most profit they can get and will get rid of them quicker. hopefully i'll join the pizza party soon

dawg 30-40 within the US using USPS?!?! im sorry but yall are getting played by the post office man. either that or you're shipping in boxes that are triple the size of the shoe box. shipping 2 day priority from CA to NY for a single pair of size 12 jordans for me is $15-18 and $20-22 if there's insurance depending on the shoe worth. these are the prices when I physically go into the PO too not online labels. yall are doin it wrong

Yes that is the right price but if you get hit with the dimension fee on the plain box then it will go up $10

Yea I'm in Atlanta I ship to Cali and New York I never cracked above 15$ also I do all my shipping online. We have a 24 hub near my job so anything I ship pretty much gets to you a day faster.

That line in there is crazy tho!!! If you don't print and ship at home and try to wait in line to ship ur stuff your just wasting time and money!!!

That walk in and walk out is a breeze

Make sure the postal clerks aren't trying to finesse you with expensive options. They don't even try to bring up standard shipping anymore. They just ask if you'd like priority or express. I don't even let them finish, I just tell them give me standard with verification.
 
Ups not usps. They like 20 something bUT the video proves otherwise. Too bad I don't resell any more. Collection ridded *I hope this is a word* of collection stackers. I won't try for anything outside of 1s thru 6s unless it's a grail of mine. IE Indiglo 14s or 16s or 17s with a proper execution.
 
I pay 25-30 for USPS shipping sometimes if I'm shipping high value items, I insure them at the price I sell them plus signature confirmation to protect myself
 
I only ship USPS 1-3day priority, idk how yall are paying more than $15 WITH signature confirmation.
 

Reshaped USPS flat rate medium box is $11.30 (use for anything over 2lb and shipping far distances). Regular shipping boxes for shipping to closer states as long as it's under $10. It's more about the distance rather than weight. Weight comes into play when you're shipping across the country.

Wise up fellas...
