Whats wrong with that logic? Just because people don't sit on shoes doesn't automatically make them broke. Also I would say selling a $250 shoe for $600 is completely worth it. I personally would rather move a shoe quickly than sit on it and be stuck on a price. I realize you could make a lot more off of the yeezys but whats wrong with giving the shoe to someone who actually wants it for a decent price (I mean that in market value). Its also not about protecting a profit margin, its more about making money through volume. The more transactions give you more gain.. Companies have different business strategies and so do people. I don't fault them for moving shoes quickly.
I will say I'm not really a reseller. I have bought a few pairs of shoes that I thought I wanted but didn't end up liking. So I sold for under after market value.

Pricing for a hot/desirable/hyped shoe always follows a pattern, to a greater or lesser degree. I'm surprised Campless hasn't done a "Pricing Lifeline Curve" for in demand releases.
I buy a shoe, I usually don't even think about wearing it for 6 months or a year, and once I've bought it the money is essentially gone - it's gone to the collection. So if I decide to list a few things on eBay, I can wait - because A. Everything I own I bought because I liked it and at the time intended to wear it B. That money is long spent and I don't need it "back".
Just saying there is a huge difference in business methods between collectors, high volume shoe resellers, and guys who got lucky.
Go go broke lucky guys - I need those Sharks for $400.
Yeah, but a lot of these dudes selling HTM's on eBay are not doing "volume" - the HTM pairs are their big come up. I just looked at 5 - 10 sellers in my size on eBay and none of them are selling more than a couple items, if that. They got the twitter link, got lucky, and now it's time to get paid. But, a lot of them want/need to get paid now, so the price cutting goes on. If they were collectors, they would wait till there is some market stabilization, and pairs start drying up, then sell. But they are not, and can't sit on that $250, so we'll see price cutting for a bit.

Thanks.
I would go a .5 size up. Tts works for the non elite Xs for me but not with elite lows just like the 9s.

Nike just dropped two dope flyknit airmax CW's today, don't get why Nike can't do these with the Kobe line. Pretty much all flyknit racer CW's and air max CW's >>>kobe's.

So I have an offer for :
$415 for Shark Jaws Size 11
$500 for Race Cars Size 10
Prices are without shipping
Do you think prices are going to go any lower ?
I'm just really afraid of paying so much (at least to me) and then prices dropping further.
Need some opinions on here.

Don't see the prices dropping under $400. Give it a couple of months and you'll see less pairs on eBay or any of those shoe groups and it'll become harder to find.
