I think everyone is just as shocked as you.
 
Jimmies definitely rustled here.

No matter how annoying Jayoo88 might be to you, he's right though. There's absolutely no reason this shoe should be going for $800+, except because of one thing: LIMITED. But just come and and say it though. I don't think one person has said they copped because its limited, which is absolutely a lie.

But 98% of you who copped don't want people to know you copped because its limited (excluding all of those who paid retails - you the real MVP's). Its hype beast tendencies, which God forbid, you get labeled that these days, so everyone starts talking about the OG mold, the height, the semi good leather, Hideo Nomo inspired the shoe, etc.... Looking for reasons why you didn't cop because of HYPE.

Thats all it is. Thats why its so salty in here. Those who copped for resell fight for their reasonings, and those like myself who wouldn't cop for resell are called salty (and are called broke - which couldn't be further from the truth - I just don't see the reasonings on why I should fork over such a large amount. Beautiful shoe, but about $400 beautiful - i don't give a damn about limited).

Congrats to everyone who has this shoe. Everyone needs to stop getting butt hurt in here.

THIS! I love the shoe, not spending that amount on them though. But I'll be labled as broke lol *shrug*

They would be a trophy display at that price. I just can't fathom paying that for THIS shoe, of all shoes. Maybe if they made black/red or chicago's this limited, shoes that really meant something to me as a 40 year old man. But these, some shoes inspired by Hideki Irabu?

Not for me.

But again, congrats to those who wanted these that badly (before I'm labeled salty, broke, or carrying what someone else spent).

These type of statements/posts are perfect IMO.

You guys like the shoe but don't feel comfortable paying the aftermarket price... completely fine.

Anyone who calls you "broke" because of that is just being ignorant.

It's the extra snide remarks like Captain D***head's that are the issue. 
 
I wouldn't pay a grand for these out of my pocket but I will sell some shoes I paid retail for , (that I'm not wearing)to buy them. I know I'm still coming out of pocket because of the shoes im selling ,but still not a grand . shoes sell for thousands now get over it ,you don't have to buy them ,and if you don't have or are looking to buy them why waste time in this thread? Nobody needs your money managing advice ,let people live man stop trying to save the world :lol

I would gladly cop a pair of feebay if I'd doubled up on some stuff over time and wouldn't miss the extra pairs. My only hang up is giving someone else $800. Once I have that money back, I'd be too tempted to just keep it.

Repped.

Hate being called broke on some shoes that are going for 5x's retail. Rather, call me selective with what i choose to purchase with my money

If someone doesnt want to pay that price for these, no one should question. The same as if someone wants to drop the coin or trade some heat, no one should question. People come around to just agitate, drop opinions and then stick you with the last word are pretty sad imo. Internet muscles are cool but when its used in that way, it says alot about the character on the other end of the ethernet. I never cared much for forums in the past mainly because of that kind of stuff. After seeing dumb crap like catfish etc, im glad i was born before the internet and have a real understanding of humanity.

:rollin :rollin :rollin

I knew who you were talking about, figured I'd jump on it before anyone else made any assumptions :lol
 
I got deep pockets but my arms are short! LOL. Since they didn't release in my size I can't be worried about it, not that I would have paid anywhere near what people are asking. Hell, I thought JB charged too much for 'em. The colorway is my only attraction to the shoe...

See and there lies a good point. Its the only credit ill give the trolls too. They can keep the old dunks argument but, all we ever do is fight and bicker over the same shoe with different colors. Thats the thing that will kill me forever. Its funny how the color change alone is the difference between saved up allowance or a freakin bank loan.

I didn't cop because they were limited but yes, that is a bonus. 

I just don't get why you feel people can't use the color way, OG mold, height & better quality as reasoning for copping?

You're not in each individuals head to know what they are really thinking so you putting everyone into one category isn't fair.

OF COURSE there are people who bought just because the hype/limited nature of the shoe but that isn't everyone.

If people can't understand this REASONING then they're just being stubborn.

That's the NT way, if a bunch of people like something that just so happened to be hyped up and expensive, the ONLY reason they got the kicks is because of hype :lol can't be because they love the Colorway, the mold, or just 1s in general.

They can generalize people that bought the shoes and paid resell, but don't call them broke or worrying about other peoples pockets :lol

Dat logic :hat

Nancy Grace been in here ten times to try and explain why others copped even though they themselves don't have em
