$160 for that pack is a good deal right there.
 
About 6 months after the last shot XIVs came out i bought em VNDS off some dude for $20 because he needed a hair cut. It was a friend of a friend.

Then in 2009 while I was out sofa shopping, I passing by a thrift store and spotted a sofa on sale that I liked. As I went in I spotted a pair of Fire Red 5's in a size 10.5 on sale for $9.99 on the shoe rack. I picked them up and sold them for $100 shipped. I would have kept them if they were a size 9

uuhhh, I figured that my find wouldn't match up to most on here.  That's insane..damn babyJs23, I wear a 10.5 too.  I  I would have known. I would of easily given you triple what you paid.

That was just luck that day

Last year I was in downtown LA and was walking down one of those alleys where they set up shops. This one stand had a bunch of backpacks, toys, and a couple of shoes on display. I was with my girl and I don't know why but I decided to take a look at their shoes. Mind u these were working shoes, sketchers, and other worthless brands. As I'm snooping around I happen to see a pair of oxidized green XIV in kids sizes. I immediately asked what size were they. They ended up being a size 4.5 (my girls size). Got them for $35! No yellowing, soles were intact, and they still had that strong smell that the OG XIV's carry. Don't know how long they had that pair sitting there but it was a diamond in the rough!
