If you think about it, the prices we are already seeing are moderate-high resell. The MSRP is $140 and these are selling for $180-200 on eBay. That's about the same resell mark-up for other GR or semi-limited releases. We're just used to seeing a "good deal" because it's under $200, which these shoes should really have a lower price, but Nike is cutting into the lost secondary market profits (at least in my opinion).

I would love this
Also wouldn't mind an all white/grey pair either
I wish they would announce the next release already... It's time

Missed out again. Was online when the counter hit zero. Added my size 10 and did the picture thing, waited for my turn and after less than 5 mins i got the OOS message! This is not my day. For those that were able to cop.. Did you have multiple windows adding the same item? Does that work? Obly had one tab open in my browser and still missed out! Damn! Being a rookie in this sneaker game online is dissapponting.

Not really.
The shoes cost 140, which means they sell for about 148-153 after tax, Shipping is 15, so that makes it 168. Tack on Paypal fees and ebay fees, which comes out to 8%, and the seller is lucky to even make a 10-20 profit.
I think people wanted these, just not for 140 because it resembles a Nike Vandal so much. If these were 70-100, that would have made it a easier sale. Not to mention its poor timing. It got released in the wake of Ferrari 14s, Sport Blue 3s, and Sport Blue 6s next week. Not to mention that the Ronnie Fieg Ascis release this weekend, which is where the resellers are focused on.

i missed out online on FNL and eastbay but walked into my local HOH and walked out with a pair so easy. i think that was the way it went for many people. online sold out instantly but sat in stores. well noted and just go inside the store for KO releases.

I also expect we'll see Bred KOs by the holiday season or Q1 2015.

I get what you're saying, I'm not saying that resellers are making a decent profit, since most of them don't on other GR/semi-limited releases either. I'm just saying the mark-up that seems the norm now for this shoe ($40-60) seems like the same for some other releases that a lot of people complain about in those threads. Either way though, like most others, I also think these will be going up in price, especially if they do release more OG-inspired colors.
That would be sweet. I would love to have a set of OG Bred KO's to go along with the sport blues.

Most on ebay will accept $170 shipped via Paypal. Just message them.

this, you guys are being a little too cheap
also, if you go to a foot locker and have them do a stock locate, you can probably find your size at a HOH somewhere and have them ship it to you

I worked for FTL in college. I didn't believe how many grown men wear 9.5 and under, but it's quite a few. I'm only 5'10" and wear a 11.5 so I guess i'm just odd

Just copped my second pair on ebay. Got them for $155 shipped! 
- 9,385

I offered my pair that i bought for 170 shipped to people who inboxed me and one guy told me "im not looking to pay over retail"
Basically, thats what a store bought pair shipped to you would cost. 220 i could see being absurd, but 170 is a really good deal. I think alot of people who wanted these were being cheap.
If Ye or Jay wore these, i could easily see them being 250-300 on the resale market. My only irk about these is the reversed tongue tag. Hopefully i can just paint it the right way myself. Im just glad i can stop wearing my Royals for a bit. I can say that these are alot more comfy than the standard OG 1. Id like to remind you all that Shadows werent selling for much more than retail at first and then doubled in price overnight.

yeah like do you expect me to lose money lol?, I'm just trying to help you get your size and yeah I normally don't agree with the kanye and jay z thing but in this case I agree, it's a dope shoe but a lot of people just didn't know about em. I've been wearing em since Saturday and everybody thinks I have royals on

Lol yeah its like people want these, but $140 is their price cap. Funny thing is that these may end up being worth more than anything that releases this month in the near future. The colorway is very clean and very well done, definitely a shoe i can wear with plenty of things in my wardrobe
