Official Nike Air Yeezy 2 thread vol. 2 - 6/9/12 Global Release Date: NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[bobafreak]

Chitown aloha postOhhhhh^ makes me want them moaaar! *sarcastic* but I agree with the previous post. Its hard not to buy into but if it wasn't for the fact I had the time off, I wouldn't do it. Cause really those with no jobs sitting out for 2 3 weeks to make xxxx amount of dollars is not close to my monthly. Wether its to resell or keep. I have fun camping out, meeting other enthusiats wether on a forum or locally, stories, just all around having a good time. reminds me of a tailgate party that ends up lasting for days on end lol.

Not really. Crack is easily obtained on any block in any urban community.. 

Ha. True, didn't think I'd get called out on my improper economic comparison of crackfiends, but I was mainly going for the imagery.

Def can confirm that as locations here will have both.

Spots in Toronto? Originally people were talking about either a) Chi only or b)major cities only getting both colors. It would be interesting if spots in Toronto are getting both colorways. That might open it up for other cities as well...

It seems like what's happening is outside of the U.S. stores are getting both colors, but in the U.S. it's bi-coastal except for Chi and maybe NYC (I only say that because it seems like NYC/LA have a tendency of getting absolutely everything).

that would be nice.. and my usual expirience w.e. on long shoe lines.. something tells me it will be a lot of looking over shoulders to make sure nobody unfamiliar is around

It's also possible that these celebrities were given specific instructions to post pictures of them as soon as they got them.  I have a feeling most of these celebrities get pretty regular shipments from Nike if they want them.

these are far from exclusive at this point, everyone and their momma who is somehow connected to the entertainment world has them, i refuse to believe that nike/kanye would smack their fans/consumers in the face by making these extremely limited to the public....if they want a limited shoe, keep it limited all around.

steezy you know better than that

Any word if NIKE will put out a list of stores that will receive them like last time?

PO? KONY?

I assume that information will start trickling out by midweek.

lol. I wouldn't be exclude

Why stop there, make it so only people with military service can purchase them... oh then add that they must make over 100k a year so bring your W-2... oh and please be over 6 ft tall and wear under a size 12 we all hate big feet....


I know you were probably joking but exclusion isn't cool at all man.

OK I'm not desperate...yet

but if I dont get a chance at them by raffle...do you guys think a DS pair of Lebron 8 South Beach are a clean trade...with maybe a little cash added? I dont want to give them up because i genuinely like them...but I like these more..especially the black/solar red pair

...

I couldn't imagine any sneaker released in the past couple of years that would count as a clean trade right off the bat at release time, but it all depends on what people value. I personally wouldn't you would have to throw in more sneakers or cash but I personally don't like the SB Lebron so that would just be me.. I would definitely give it a shot though.

a DS pair of SB's + 1/2 a stack...If I owned a black pair I still wouldn't do that trade...

Hey PO did you get my message about the trade? Let me know sir. Thanks.

  

 

[g2000]

I'm going to eventually buy them from a reseller around July when this whole shenanigans calms down, especially the price. I wish the prices would go down to $800 or so, but that is not happening. I believe these after a month will stay steady at $1,000 $1500, depends how desperate the sellers get for money. But eventually that should be what to expect. And here I though $550 for the Blinks were INSANE prices when they first dropped.

Quick question to you guys. Would you guys trade a Black/Pink worn 2 times Yeezy 1 for a Yeezy 2 any colorway?

I just wanted to hear some opinions...since the SB have a high value i just figured it would be a good start with some cash or whatever...but I probably wont since I like them anyway...

Not by Nike's standards though. Their marketing push (in general) is focused on LA, NY and Chicago, which is why it would make sense for those cities to have both colors. It would be very interesting to see shops in other cities getting both colors, but now that I think about it Toronto would be an international city (obviously) and most likely have different distribution than the US.

Yep, you're right. What Toronto does/doesn't get won't really apply to what's going on in the US...

Pretty much those two points you made Steep explained it all perfectly.

My original statement was speaking from what I know for Vancouver and Toronto.

Any word if NIKE will put out a list of stores that will receive them like last time?
I hope they don't do it until the Wed/Thurs.
