If anyone's interested, Gilt has the M997JNB available in a 10, 11 and 12 for $129. Use "30GILT" for extra 30% off:

JNB is one of my favorite 997 color ways. I sold my pair off a while ago which I regret. The first run of GR 997s were really great when it comes to materials, shape and execution. Bummed that I slept on so many color ways (at the time they were releasing wayyyyy too many at once).
Someone cop these if you don't have a pair!

It's a difficult time to sell just about any sneaker. Even Yeezy prices are dropping. And we are NB GR fans in here so it's like 20 x tougher. I sold a pair of eqt 93-17 boost on Stock X. They fee you to death but it was enough over retail to where i made some cash. And they make it crazy easy (Free seller shipping now so might be time to jump). There is ebay. Local folks you know. FB groups, although I've never sold anything on there.The thing I'm coming to a realization with NB is just be prepared to sell way under retail on even DS pairs unless they are the few wanted collabs. Probably the best solution is stop buying wear what you have when it gets beat chuck um, donate some pairs (good Karma) and any collab you got that is DS that will at least get your money back sell.

Agreed, homie. Over-saturation is the name of the game nowadays with all brands. I've been low-balled so many times on Facebook groups with guys asking me to sell DS pairs of NB's at half the asking price (when my asking price is usually heavily discounted to begin with).
I think subconsciously a lot of sneaker heads purchase so many shoes because in the back of their minds there always used to be the fallback option of selling off DS pairs if you need to cut back. That's not the case with most New Balance pairs, (and sneakers in general these days). You've gotta have a real love and appreciation for the brand and actually intend on wearing the shoes if you buy a pair of NBs.
I plan on growing old and dying wearing New Balance but check with me again in 10 years when I'm 40 and see if I'm still rocking all orange/pink/teal Concepts collabs, lol.

I think the bottom is finally falling out of sneaker resell.

9.5% and they charge a 3% paypal fee + shipping. Shipping is free now for sellers. Also I think after a certain number of sales their fee drops by like 1%.

I completely agree. These were my first 997s, still one of my favorites. Great shape, versatile colorway, super comfy!

Is there any reason to not buy the 998 grand tourer on the restock? Trying to justify it, I guess the mature person I buried long ago in me is starting to surface.

The fact you need to justify it is a reason not to buy it.

great point. I don't know if it's the colorway or what, I just am not getting that "oh snap!" feeling about them. I guess I would have already bought them if so.

So, you guys (gals?), I can get these are $148. Do we think that's a good deal, or will I see these for $100 at a later date??
On a side note, I guess they are doing a Fresh Foam 574. Kinda interesting. The black ones are quite clean.

Thanks for the input. I guess I'm just getting all antsy. I like them a lot, but I want the best deal.

These (M1400CSP Age of Explorarion Pack) were in my Marshall's today in Western MA. Not sure if NB is pumping miUSAs only to stores here in New Engkand, but you may want to keep your eyes peeled at your local store.
Needless to say, I grabbed a pair. Can't beat $50.

I thin 50% disc should not be a problem. You just need to find the retailer and strike it when their sale hits.

Could someone help, I found some 1300clj in my closet, but the encap seems softer than my other 1300s. Are they on the way to crumblesville?

I sold my pair within a couple of weeks after getting them. They had a lot of dents in the toebox and the quality was pretty weak. I wouldn't pay anymore than $100 for them.
