I had 8 pair on ebay starting at 99 cents and the highest I made was $240 shipped and the loweset I made was $200 shipped.I didn't have a reserve oranything.I didn't expect that at all........That was the week of the release.......Then I got lucky again and found the doernbecher 1's in my size 12for $200 shipped.I had to have em since NDC cancelled my order.

Nah, the other cats are too high. Everybody and their momma has these up for sale on eBay. The feeding frenzy is over. There are too many other good JB release that came out after this and more are coming. I wear a size 13 and I've seen a whole bunch of them on eBay in that size and now all of the sellers are finally realizing that they should'nt bought these as a quick flip for cash. They weren't limited, so why copp for resale. I know many sellers who have some left are feeling a little funny about copping so many. Watch the price drop like a knock kneed baby on ice. Heck, it's already dropping.Don't get me wrong I have 2 pairs and copped them on release day, so I do like them. My point was that this was a lot of hype for resellers. Let's face it...it was damn near a General Release. Let'em go and move on to the next big JB release. If not...hang on them for 2 years...the value may go up again at that point if JB doesn't drop anther red on black AJ1 Retro. Oh shoot...I forgot...can we say "Infared"?JB put too many 1 retros (including the Blue on Black low and the Red on Black lows) out there within a 2 month span. Sorry to break the news like this. Honestly in today's current market, that $155 and $135 might be too high. I keep seeing the same sellers re-listing the same shoe over and over again with no bid or purchases on the previously listed items. Stop the madness. It isn't worth it. Reselling J's isn't worth it these days, not unless it is truely a limited QS. Other than that. let it go, you save yourselves and your bank accounts. Believe that!
Your joking about when you said "There are too many other good JB release" I've gotten offers of Concord XI, Hulk SB, Playoff XII, ect...........Re-Sell price/trades are actually pretty good right now for these shoes.........

757 Hampton Roads area...if you are still looking try Sports Zone Janaf or Shoe City Military Circle. Not too sure if still in stock, just thought I'd tryand look out. On rd, I called around a few places these were the only two stores that had them.

Yes, these will allow you to lace them all the way up if you wanted to and still have enough to tie. I lace mine to the hole second from the top. I've tried 45 inch laces and you can't even lace them up on the ankle portion.
heres how mines are looking with 45'.....

You're tripping dude... these are still selling for $200+ in many sizes. You can't judge based on size 13's... lol. The market for size 10.5 forinstance is MUCH stronger. The key to reselling is to stay away from sizes like 13 and 8 b/c they won't ever sell for much more than retail. And theseJordans were rather limited, particularly in certain areas of the country (scroll back through this thread and you'll see that a bunch of peopleweren't able to get there's at release). I know you want resellers to fail, but wishing it doesn't make it so.
