Guy got jacked for 3 pairs of Jordans in Burnaby, recovered 2 pairs. Guy who got robbed does an interview
and the camera pans down and he's wearing Pirate Black Yeezys lol.

That's why I am not a fan of selling expensive stuff online (expeically CL). I usually use RS.

Did anyone who got the Reigning champs ultra boost even want them? it seems like all I see are resellers and I don't think these were even really raffled out here so people stood in line for hours and hours just to make around a $200 profit? lol

Same for the Triple Black Ultraboost. Resellers were lining up for 16+ hours at Livestock. It seems all the smaller sizes 7-10 are for sale I haven't seen an 11 and up for sale lol.

G 11-30-2016 06:08 PM

All of the shoes now are all about resell.... Same with the V2 blacks, people are trying to ship them for like $675-700... Also goes for the Chocolate 750s, those are like $800-900 now...

That's why the sneaker game is dead to me now. All these people buying the shoes just to resell, does anyone actually want shoes anymore? Resellers aren't killing the game, it's the stupid people that are willing to pay asking prices. Gone are the days where a sneaker came out and if you wanted it, you could walk in and get it no problem.

Expresso 12-01-2016 01:16 PM

It's simple supply and demand.

If you could walk in and get it, then nobody wanted it in the first place.

Well adidas doesnt make it any easier with limited releases and super low stock amount and twice the amount of resellers. Basically makes it impossible for ppl like me to get a pair when they have all their releases while im busy at work. Still have yet to find a pair of ultraboosts in my size

I think he meant for retail price not reseller. Nike has gotten better fighting back at resellers with the SNRKS APP and mass producing shoes, they saw that resellers were making 4-5 times. Adidas is fairly new to reselling started 2-3 years ago with the Ultra Boosts and Yeezys then the NMDS followed. Adidas they'd rather have the "hype" and the resellers so long as they get attention.
Simple supply and demand.

Two ways to stop resellers, mass produce/saturate the market like what Nike is doing. Or don't buy from them and make them sit on their inventory and force them to sell at a lower price. There's always going to be another shoe coming out the next week/month. They're just shoes at the end of the day.

Have any of you ordered from stockx or goat before? Were there any customs/duties on your order?

Ordered from GOAT before and they shipped with DHL

Duties were 1/4 of the price of the shoes, so i denied shipment, sent it back to them, got a refund and found the shoes cheaper locally :fuckthatshit:

Stockx uses UPS so you're guaranteed duties as well

Vansterdam 12-04-2016 05:11 PM

JSALES 12-06-2016 09:50 PM

I feel the space jams will sit. I feel the quality is going to be shit and I dislike the number 45 on the heel lol

Last year's 72-10 XI's had amazing quality. Probably the best of all the XI's in terms of the quality. Good thing there was not much hype, we love our OG colors too much. It's hard to like a non-OG color. Reminds me of the fake / variant Jordans you see all over the internet back in the mid 2000's.
