priorities > desires (no matter what your financial status is) ...
there has to be a breaking point where you say "alright man, enough is enough" because no matter how you analyze it, the buyers dictate resale prices. I have taken advantage of that many times and made serious $$ flipping pairs, and of course I have given into the hype and over paid for a shoe that I really "wanted" or "needed"... but when we are getting to the point where a somewhat limited $245 MSRP is going for almost $2k?? ... take a step back and really think about it, just saying...
Well said, man, well said. These shoes shouldn't even be going for $1000+. I could stomach it if a reseller charged $500, maybe even $600 for these, but the rape prices really have me disgusted. Then I also see $3000 and $5000 being listed on eBay and I REALLY want to strangle those people. Come on, man, they are delusional.
dang!! thats an amazing deal u came across, i wish i could find them for that price. the solars too, 1000 isnt bad at all!Originally Posted by akuratl02

You have just came to a balance in your life, where sneakers do not hold any weight in comparison to real life priorities, which is exactly how it should be ... But, the next generation is doing exactly what you did before .. flipping hype, and turning it into $$$ ..
@ $500 ... I wish somebody would offer me all the Yeezy 2's they had on hand for $500 a pop ... I myself, am paying $700 for a pair of Plats on Monday, and flipping them, so that I can get my Pair of Solars on Saturday, which are costing me a stack ... Oh well, that is how the game is going right now ... Give it another 3 weeks, prices should start reflecting an all around decrease, to the point, where re-sellers are looking for buyers .. But $500, ehhhhh? I dunno.
Another way is to "buy" the shoes from each other over Paypal; just treat it as if you're buying shoes. If someone screws someone over, file a dispute. Then you're out only for Paypal fees....Originally Posted by KingOfKicks805
idk if niketalk has that trading system but it was amazing on ISS. still though there could be that 1 mod that wants to screw u over >.
true.. but some people dont like going through that. like i pay him 200 for his, and he pays me 200 for mine? what if its a yeezy trade.. he aint sending 2000 and im not sending 2000, thats risky. should just send to a mod like they do on SC, assuming the mod isnt a scammer which to be honest u never know unless u know some1 personally who has dealth with him/herOriginally Posted by CDUNK
