so I was just looking at ebay auctions to see what the mcfly's were going for.
1) not only are the reseller prices f'n ridiculous
2) people having 3-4 pairs... ALL FOR SALE
I remember the days when people bought sneakers to wear them...

im def keeping mine to ball in... and yes, i would rock'em with those pink laces.
As for that one auction with the 3 size 9 mcflys signed by kobe on ebay.. id do the same thing.. what good are fresh lookin shoes if i cant wear them becauseof some scribble on them. i love kobe, but i woulda had him autograph my kobe = mvp sign instead of my mcflys...

In the last 18 months are so the game has changed drasticaly. Since JB started releasing retro X's and VII's in 2005-2006, Nike and JB have broughteverythign back in mass quantities.
People who have collected for long enough got fed up with the game and desided to start making $$$ off the newer crowd that was less knowledgeable. ObviouslyEBAY and flightclub have played major parts in feeding that hype. Before these mediums and lesser selling forums like dunkxchange, it was harder to resellkicks. Now there are very common marketplaces online for every newbie and experienced collector alike to go on and price kicks at very high premiums.
16 year olds and those caught on the hype cant grasp the understanding that these flightclub and many ebay prices are inflated, partialy by friends bumping upauction prices and rediculous buy it nows.
So many think they can make money and just keep fueling the fire, when only the select few who have done it right and understand the game can actualy get paidwell for flipping shoes.
There are going to be less and less people willing to pay these people serious money for most shoes other than the top 0.5% of releases.
Obviously those who can purchases in bulk and get $140 shoes and sell them for $180 - listing and selling fees can make hundreds of dollars a week, but thesekids camping at Undefeated who are all listing these online are blowing these out of proportion. There are around 40 listings and most sellers have less than100 feeback and many have closer to 10. A true sign that the game has gone 180 and the term sneakerhead just doesnt meant what it might have even 3 or 4 yearsago.
I just wonder if those who realy want the Mcflys are getting itchy and bidding $700 right now, or holding out and hoping that they will be able to pick up onrelease and/or resell will go down. I am hoping its the former and most wont be willing to pay that kind of money for the shoe.
For the most part Nike is catching on and pumping out so much product that no one has the money to pay resell, but they are also ensuring that a few of theirstatment products have that inflated monetary value associated with them, to upkeep the image of their brand as being the most exslusive to put on your feet orcollect and stack up in your closet. Hence the limited release of the Kobe PE hyperdunks and these Mcflys, since there will be so many other versions availablethat everyone can own all the other hyperdunks at reasonable prices/retail.

its still BULL how we have to wait til after asia gets them to get US stuff using DIFFERENT MATERIAL. come on.
i know i'm not the only one that thinks this whole idea is garbage. we're getting screwed, period.
and the mcfly release should have been a GR for reasons that were already said. what is the freaking point of releasing a sneaker that they knew would beinsanely popular in extra limited quantities? now you have to drop two months rent on one pair of sneakers.
...but they care about the consumer, right?

I want a pair but can't find them in my size and I damn sure wouldn't drop $700 on the McFly Hyperdunks.

For those who have tried the Hyperdunk on..
How is the fit?
Same fitting as 2K4's?
Compared to AZK III? *EDIT* Sorry, missed the post a few pages back. My bad.
