yea true. eBay is sending a 1099 to everyone with 600 in sales… I think I read if you have receipts of the original purchase then at least u can deduct that amount. Can roll the dice and assume u won’t get auditedOh that's too much work lol.. will not be practical. I was talking about tax/filing purposes, write offs, etc.
Because you brought it up … the alternative is simple, you just don’t own the shoe. That might not be the desired outcome but it’s really ok to not own them. It won’t have any negative impact on you (or whomever) at all to just not own them if purchasing them is financially impractical or irresponsible.i really dont even know what the alternative is bro. shrug it off my man. nike screwed us on amounts again.
Oh no bro that's facts. That's the true alternative to anything. Do or do not.Because you brought it up … the alternative is simple, you just don’t own the shoe.

It won’t have any negative impact on you (or whomever) at all to just not own them if purchasing them is financially impractical or irresponsible.
It’s up to the individual to determine if paying the equivalent of two-three shares of Apple stock or a fractional share of Google stock is irresponsible or impractical for a non-durable or durable good (pair of shoes).
I ask everyone to really think about spending $400-$500 on something multiple times that will dirty, age, wear down, yellow, and ultimately disintegrate, as you walk on them over time instead of using that money to buy an ownership share in a company. This especially goes for those who are young and taking cultural cues from social media.
Even if you think what I’m saying is stupid or boomerish, just please give it some thought. Please.
Wishing everyone well.
Yeafor those that won the ship to draw on footlocker/champs/footaction did they charge tax AND shipping?
Yes, they charged for shipping.for those that won the ship to draw on footlocker/champs/footaction did they charge tax AND shipping?
I know even if end up paying $30-$40 over msrp, I feel even more guilty when prices go up and are out of reach 2-3 years down the line. Doesn’t help that Jordan brand has releases every 10 years. Imagine if this junk was sittin on shelves and you could just grab em anytime. It’s all trash anyways no matter how much value you attach to it.The tricky part about the “retail or pass” debate is for a lot of these hyped shoes, we all know their value just goes up and up. For majority of us, we might only wear em a handful of times over a 2-3 year period and can flip em for the same price we paid resale for, if not more. OR maybe they never even make it to the concrete. Either scenario it kinda leads us to just paying that resale ticket- especially if it’s a nostalgic kick or just something u want hella bad. U can justify it, as long as it’s a high demand shoe.
The other scenario is if you beat em to the ground then hell, you enjoyed them MFs and got your moneys worth for sure.
The only reason eBay fees were higher was because they used to charge that 3% fee for PayPal or what not. That is no longer being charge because eBay now controls the payments. Bringing the total fees back to the original 8-9%. So, eBay trying to pull a fast one on us lol1. eBay used to have higher fees than this. I was in shock that **** was so cheap the last time I sold something. I was mad I didn’t use it for so long, they must have seen me come back and put the fees back high.
2. You all just wanted to start llc’s lol don’t act like it’s the $400 in eBay revenues you do forcing your hand. I personally will continue to use eBay as a marketing tool and showcase only to avoid all that for now.
I’m about to hit that 20k mark on eBay. I removed everything from my profile. Don’t need that extra hassle come next year filing.Need to find out what ya'll doing with this 600 crap.. I know folks are already on the work around.
What’s the age group for old heads?if you arent super old you can definately wait til next retro of these
for us old heads tho
is it really?Waiting another 10 years to save give or take $100-150 is crazy though.
What’s the age group for old heads?
Asking for a friend
That was one of the most painful ones.Depends on which ones lol. I know some had like a 20 year wait between OG to first retro. Bordeaux 7s come to mind.
In the rare instances I've paid resale the shoe gets worn. Not gonna pay over box, especially 2 or 3 hundred and more just to look at a shoe. I can make it my screensaver for free for that.The tricky part about the “retail or pass” debate is for a lot of these hyped shoes, we all know their value just goes up and up.
