So, I wanna oop a friend my extra pair. What should I do? Charge retail? $100 over retail? I'm trying to be a good friend, too.
From personal experience :
-you oop a real life very close friend that you ve known for many years and he is an experienced sneakerhead/collector also. This is the best scenario , probably he will reciprocate at some point in the future when he gets the chance.
-you oop a person that isnt a very close friend or isnt into the sneaker game (=will never cop yeezys for retail ) and just wants the latest fashionable sneaker. He doesnt understand that you could make a bunch of extra $$$ ,but you decided to give him the shoes. Bad scenario ,at best he will just say thanks or buy you a drink or something. Dont expect a favor to be returned in the future.
-you oop some kid or young person <30y old , you dont really know ,you just know his online presence.Worst case scenario , these young cats rarely reciprocate .They think they are smart and next time they will cop extra pairs and you didn't , they will sell and keep the extra cash and tell you they didnt hit any pairs.
-you oop someone who has helped you in the past equally, or is someone "old" , has been around the block and is very reputable. I would say this is also a good scenario ,you build a relationship that may go a long way .
All of the above have happened to me.
Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith to build a relationship with people .
If you do, i would advice to deal with older people ,or people who have families/kids, they tend to have higher values.
