Agreed on all accounts. The market for AF1s is pretty fluid because there isn't a constant supply of them to force price stabilization. So, the market almost gets reset every transaction. The question is how badly the buyer wants them, because in a lot of cases it isn't like he can just pass on one offer and easily find another pair elsewhere.Originally Posted by 8tothe24
ah I see. And I'm talking about sellers in general. Never dealt with gusto, so I can't talk on that. And I've asked plenty of sellers to see more pics, usually the first thing I do (and anyone spending money on used items should do) if seriously interested. I had more than several say no way to the request- total red flag. But I'll say it again, they're only worth what you're willing to spend on 'em. Just me though, if you guys have a system that works for you- more power to you. As long as we are all happy with the products we pick up it's all good. My only advice is to know what you're getting before you buy it.Originally Posted by BIP Roberts
I thought you were talking about my recommendation that Mr. Co take a shot on the cheap bisons. But, re: the courirs, well, first of all, it looks like they may have sold because they're not up there anymore. But, regardless, gusto isn't some random ebay seller. He's a pretty established and trusted guy. So, if anybody wants to see more pics or has questions should have just contacted him.Originally Posted by 8tothe24
$40 is all fine, but homie wants $180 for them. I've seen plenty of AF1s that have very nice condition uppers and the sole is rubbed to hell. I don't have any clue what condition the soles are in... but, a picture would've helped. I just view a shoe as a shoe, it is meant to be in contact with the ground and if the sole is beat, you know the air sole is beat. But like you said, if you really want a gem, then have at it. Just saying, dude is charging 180 without a full picture set, he is tripping if he thinks he will even get half that. There was a pair of size 10 Mushrooms that sat on ebay for about 2-3 years, the uppers were very nice but the soles were burnt to shtick and dude wanted like 400 for them. It is what I always say, a pair of AF1s are only worth what a person is willing to spend.
^^ and damn Mike, you continue to kill it. Those blk/green high canvas are amazing.
