Yes but that is still just a way of justifying a 1k payment on one item. You could apply that logic to every release you missed but ultimately in interim you will have bought additional sneakers or other things with that cash. You need to view the purchase in isolation.

Agreed. It's not about being able to afford the price of resell. It's about justifying that purchase of one pair of sneakers for $1K +.

True but it's what interest you.
In the end your either going to:

1. Take the L , and save.
2. Take the L , and buy a consolation prize.
3. Take several Ls , and buy resale.
4. Take several Ls , and find a new place to put your money.
5. Take the L, and wait for another opportunity at retail.

It's all free will but at the same time I see why some people are more inclined and less resistant to pay outrageous prices.
If you want something and you get deprived of it enough, eventually you either get more smarter (Find more sites , methods , game plan etc.) or more desperate (Paying resale) to get it.

Lucked out big time at champs Lenox. Something told me to go in there and ask right when they opened. Apparently someone didn't pick up their pair (size 11) before the deadline and no one bothered to came in and ask by the time store closed. I gladly scooped these up and got away with the best steal of the century. Went from never seen the yeezys in person to owning two overnight. NEVER GIVE UP MY PPLSView media item 1919515

Any ideas on sizing? I heard the PBs fit like Tubular Xs so I went TTS. I go TTS in Jordan 2s, 4s, 5s, 7s, and 11s, and go up a half size in foams and ultra boosts. I suspect that going TTS was the right decision, just curious what you guys think. I have a wide foot, not crazy wide but pretty wide.
I have a wide foot also. I needed a size 13.5 for the 2015 Bordeaux 7s, but with the 2011 Bordeaux 7s I got a 13 because a 13.5 would've been to big with the 2011s. At first I got a size 13 Yeezy 350 PB (2015 1st release) and it was a little too tight so I tried a 13.5 on those and they fit perfect. Hope that helps. Now I just need a 2016 2nd release PB in a 13.5. History tells me Adidas will be/are making Yeezys with cheaper materials/manufacturing process, haven't seen the 2016s yet, anybody know if they look cheaper? Thanks

They build casinos on luck like that. * Claps Hands*
 
Coming from someone who was a firm team retail member, and is now considering the possibilities of paying resell, it's not always desperation. Sometimes you just fed up lol 
 
I doubt they're doing restock via the website. The email posted is most likely correct: You have to purchase an item from the men's collection in order to secure a pair. Although it's probably not worth it—an item in the collection is at least $350 + $30 shipping + $200 for the 350's + $30 shipping again. After it's all said and done you will be paying resale prices. And if you don't get a $350 item you will be paying well above resale. 

Kanye lost $12 million on the collection, he is definitely trying to recuperate some of the losses. Despite how rich you guys think Kanye is, he's not that rich.
