^^That's silly since it will cost you return shipping to NDC. You can still make a few bucks on them.

Precisely. People think it's a breeze to resell something. There are so many factors going into how much you'll make (if anything). First, you have to be a well established seller with excellent feedback (ESPECIALLY when it comes to something as fraud sensitive as sneakers) before people will be confident enough to do business with you. Secondly, you have to worry about whether the person who buys will actually pay, or not. There are too many deadbeat bidders nowadays on account of sellers not being allowed to leave buyers negative feedback anymore. This has also led to a lot of PayPal scams, where the buyer will get exactly what he paid for, but lie and say the item was not as described, or it arrived damaged, etc. In many instances, PayPal will side with the buyer, taking the money from your account, and refunding him/her, and quite often, without the buyer ever sending you back the item. Yes, that means they took the money back from you, AND kept your shoes! And then even IF they actually pay, you have to take into consideration the 9% you'll be loosing to eBay, and another 3% to PayPal (deducted even off what you charged for shipping), minus whatever shipping will cost. Sure, there are ways around this, but you really limit your consumer base if you want to sell an item outside of eBay, or have a buyer send you the payment as a "gift" (which is excluded from fees), because basically, the buyer is screwed if you decide to not send the shoes, so not a whole lot of people are going to be trusting enough to go that route.Originally Posted by Ayipapi
Better yet what ever happened to the good old days when people actually bought kicks cause they really liked them or really wanted them?? Not because they are anticipating what there gonna be worth on eBay...got dudes buying 10 packs...wasting days making connects...bustin out credit cards...paypal..debit cards and everything else to what...make $50 - $60 dollars (if your lucky and have these eBay bastards actually pay when they win auctions) off kicks...go get a real job and invest that time in a bonus...or some OT that pays real dividends...
Only people making money in the resale game is eBay, paypal, visa, and shipping companies (with an honorable mention to label and packaging companies)
No, but many of their sigs are.Originally Posted by dtb00201
Most people only mentioned the prices going up to tell people to buythem now while they are still low. I don't see what any of that had todo with reseller dreams. Those people weren't telling you to buy packsfrom them.Originally Posted by tvanterpool

and the only reason i copped so many is cuz i could, and without spreading myself too thin, even if it means sitting on them for a hot minute. i just want it to eventually work out to me getting one of my 2 packs for free basically. or use 'em as trade bait later for a grail when they're less available.

^^^The arguement on JB's enslavement over NikeTalk and the rest of many trend followers has been proven with this re-issue package. This is all fact.
My opinion is I would hope to own bgrade versions because they feature rare infrared box tag labels that may seem interesting to me.
Smh @ op for questioning me using "hell" for emphasis. You must worship that place being that you fully support a brand that leads its customers there. JB is a bgrade brand. If you don't accept this, then you must enjoy ashy suede, out the box creases, and cdp molds.
A lot of interesting stuff is in this forum and is said when people are real and are not over hyping themselves in order to make themselves look good and to brag. People know when someone is bragging or overhyping, but when the truth comes out people respect. Nothing better than getting a connect who can hu with a tough release or when you plan out the right place to go where you can go early and wait in line buy a few of a hot shoe that sells out quick, spend the time to sell a couple and come up with ur pair or package for free. Not everyone can afford 150 175 dollar shoes, and the only way to get a them is to sell a couple. Props to the people who have dreams of getting real money and have to resell to get shoes now and who hopefully work hard to some day be able to buy J's and not have to worry about reselling.Originally Posted by air max 87
