I won't even entertain meet ups that are far away... even for extra money because it could just end up being a waste of time and gas. I'd rather play it safe and do nearby places or no deal.

Any tips on how to get a US phone number to get verified on SNKRS? I downloaded FreeTone on iOS and got a number but I can’t receive the verification code. TIA.
^ unless you do it on release day, swaps will be very difficult to come by. Will be easier if you sold your pair and buy the sz 11
You're going to need someone's real cell phone number in order to receive that text. Got my buddy in Cali to do it. However, there's no point though. Even though I have somewhere to ship it to, I still can't buy anything since you have to enter a US credit card for payment. I can purchase on Nike.com with no problem since they let you use Canadian credit cards, but not on the SNKRS app. If anyone knows a way around this, that would be appreciated.
Hmm I don’t know if it’s a subtle flex or a loud scream of submission to hype. I would consider myself to be in the know, and I am aware of how rare they are, but it does come off as a normal black and white Air Max 1 that you can get for $130 on a good day with a Canadian flag on the tongue. As for the Yeezys, although I would never pay resale for them, I do understand that it is an iconic shoe and unlike anything else.
With that being said, maybe I’m just getting older with the sneaker culture. I could care less what is more rare. Give me the better overall shoe.
If it is to impress the 16-35 year old usually male demographic into sneakers, then yeah, your argument makes sense.
And I won’t call you stupid as you requested, but there is no way the AM1s are more iconic than the Yeezys, even if people in their 80s are wearing them. Replace “iconic” with “rare”. Rare does not equal iconic.
I agree with everything you said on Kijiji meet ups. If the buyer is willing to come to the seller’s choice of location, it shows commitment. If it is halfas*ed, then it should be a flag.
Pretty random question but we're all shoeheads/sneakerheads here and I'm sure we all have a ton of shoe boxes. Do you guys keep all your shoe boxes for collection purposes or do you throw them out and just keep the shoes?
I kind of feel like the boxes are almost as important in collecting as the shoes are (especially if you may plan to re sell down the line). Some of my boxes are so beat up though and I don't even know how they got so bad. The edges fraying and the box dented in or the lids almost ripping off. I have pretty bad OCD so I've kept basically all the original boxes I've bought but it kind of bothers me that some are so beat up (ya it's the boxes I'm talking about lol).
I've looked online on certain people's collections and some have creative ways to store their sneakers/shoes without using the boxes, while some buy those clear boxes and use those. It interests me because I wonder how many of us out there have a spare room filled almost ground to roof with sneaker boxes and your parents or girlfriend/wife get pissed the eff off lol.
Dont really care about the boxes tbh, especially if its a regular nike/adidas box. I end up dashing alot of the boxes to make space.
FYI, for anyone who took a L on release day for the Flyknit Trainers, prices are dropping like crazy. i think the lowest i saw on kijiji was $250 OBO. I know they're supposed to re release later this month but for those who don't want to wait or go through the hassle of securing a pair this is a pretty good option
Not sure if anybody is interested but got a pair of the Orca 2.0 (w volt) Racers ..... letting them go for $130 (what I paid for them) They are DS and size 10. Msg me if interested.
hey man, you should post this in buy/sell section or put it in your sig. These sorts of posts generally aren't allowed outside of those two areas
