I think you picked the exception rather than the rule. You see far, far more fixed price listings than $0.99 NR auctions for shoes in the tier of the K4 Chaos. No-reserve auctions like that are usually a deal for the winning bidder...I saw a pair of lightly used 11.5 south beach 8's go for 620...
The Sneaker Closet dude on eBay selling DS K4 Chaos in 11.5 must have read this thread....either that, or I know market prices better than I thought....I said a little ways back I'd expect to see them for 1100-1300, they popped up yesterday with a 1200 tag.
Let's just settle it right now, u...
not trying to waste money at all...but for limited releases, especially ones from a few years back, the retail price really has nothing to do with anything, let's be honest. I was just saying I'd *expect* to see DS K4 Chaos listed for over 1k on eBay...maybe you can stumble into a $500 pair at a...
^Replying to the discussion of DS Chaos IV above....
I think $1k and up is more than reasonable (esp for a DS pair). It's got overall scarcity, size scarcity, and unique aesthetic appeal. You can't even buy GR Kobe 4s for 300 anymore, let alone a DS or NDS pair of Chaos 4s. I mean...I'd be...
I've got a DS pair of K4 MLKs with receipt in 11.5, was thinking about selling them sometime soon and going 500+ on eBay. They're just not around at all, let alone the size/condition/receipt combo. Ebay takes too much in fees and ppl always want free shipping etc, so ur giving away prob 50-60...
200-225 is a slam dunk price for a buyer. Barely making $100 off the OG price. If you throw em on eBay, you gotta go mid-400s. Fees, shipping etc. plus all the peeps sending you "how low can you go" messages while your listing is posted...if you're just trying to do a favor for a fellow...
Thanks red...i was thinking the same, i might close the book on K4s unless I can double up on these...wouldnt mind buying used. Def agree with the "dope 4"! aside from the ones i listed above that are dope-impossible to find....
Thanks Jslimm.....u got a pretty thorough collection yourself. now I have to work on doubling up so I can rock some of these. Unfortunately the three K4s I'll probably never have a chance to grab are the Matadors, Christmas Day ids and the Mother Lovers...was pumped to be able to get the venoms tho
