Alright guys, so here they are. They are what I call "Provider" 998s. Big thanks to Maria from NB. I love the card they give you, makes you feel special lol. At first when I pulled them from the box they looked greenish and they girl friend even said they looked teal. I was nervous, but on foot and kinda in some light I think they look great. I plan to do a little few touchups with black on the top of the collar and tongue.

Thanks dude! Wish I could do the mint version as well but I don't think any of these blues/mint colors would work.
Would you do suede or mesh if you did them?

I'd probably do suede, just cos i'm a sucker for suede toes.
Although i do understand going the mesh route would stay true to the original, and the shape would be better too..
I'm a fan both ways!

Do a suede pair so I can see how they look? Lol
 
Todd Snyder is great. I bought my M997BKR from them and the box came destroyed. Also came with some QC issues (as did my 997BEXP). They ended up giving me a huge partial refund and I got them for around $105 shipped when all was said and done.
 
That brings the total, including be frugal down to like just below 80 bucks.....SMDH. I wish I had that price match thing right about now
 
99 x 85% = 84.15
Top it up with be frugal 8% = 77.41.
But it comes with shipping cost. 99 alone has free shipping.

Good looking out on the 997BKR. Added the 15% off and ebates 4% plus for whatever reason the Jason Markk 8 oz cleaner activated free shipping, but the Jason Markk essential kit did not so added the former for less than $100 all in.

Don't pass on that if you really want them. That's a great deal for a DS pair.

I hear you guys, thanks for your input. In general I shy away from paying resell prices. I believe these were $160 when they first dropped and it's hard to stomach paying a bill over retail. But they would easily retail for $220-$240 if they dropped now so I suppose it's a solid deal. I just think with hype on NB being all but dead I am constantly looking to scoop even older classics for the low.

I topped it off with some Jason Markk Shoe cleaner. Rather get some free stuff than pay for the shipping. Came out to $99.45 with free shipping.

Nvm: Missed snowman77's post above which says the same thing
