If he doesn't ship he still gets charged sellers fees from ebay so he would have to list them at a much higher price to absorb the " double fee".

Yeah I'm thinking this will backfire more frequently, atleast on the high ticket items... how do they handle a repo?
send Bernice to pull the shoes off your feet and ship em back?

That's YOU and the "homie" sk8. tons of people put shoes on credit cards and pay them off over time. It's the same difference except you pay FC fees instead of your credit card. I don't see you ranting about the PayPal bill me later option either. It's the same difference and the consumer ultimately doesn't care whom he's giving the commission to whether it's FC, PayPal, a cc, a loan shark, etc.
other venues allow for payment plans ie jewelers, car lenders, banks, mortgage companies, etc.

Have to read into it. Are they even allowing you to take the product before its paid off?

I haven't even seen it yet... but he said financing which means you take it, unless he meant layaway which would make much more sense in this market.

I have to agree with this. I know a few people who use daddy's cc to buy shoes and struggle to pay it off monthly.
As BigJ alluded I think this is more of a way for FC to move product. Most people that go to FC window shop unless its a tourist who just needs to buy something from FC. FC use to be a great store 10 yrs ago but now I think its part of the problem in the snkr community vs a pillar

10-30% interest! yeah most CCs are much lower than the high end of that spectrum... even my first BS secured card I got was like 20% so if your credit line isn't high enough for those shoes you just gotta have then maybe you should work on that first but hey, whatever floats ones boat.

Honestly, it's just free money for FC if they set it up properly.

That wasnt always the case with FC Im talking years ago as stated in my post.
But FC doesnt accept every shoe and very few GR are accepted but they also sell shoes themselves. I could be wrong but I think they have a few snkr accounts as well.

Man I been away for a minute. Wanted to see how the olive joints looked. 85 percent for the black gucci but why is it in 2 weeks instead of the 2 or 3 months like it was...I guess that's why people financing shoes.
My little perspective on financing, you don't have to pay the duration of the terms. You can pay things off early. My whole thing is if you got the cash, spend it on shoes and stuff alike. You don't want 3 little bills being a big bill. However credit to cash ratio while making payments is a art. You have to be anxious to pay off balances. Destroying your wealth is a no no. And not every release is worth purchasing and"real" people won't pick at you cause you got the new pokemon (sneakers) every other week. 800 dollars is shear stupidity if you have over 50 shoes unless you making plays thru purchases. I still like shoes I just hate the new guys who act like thirsty little females on trl.

You can laugh now if you want to, but I have them and on feet they look sooooo much better, plus I got so many more compliments about my Curry's than when I've worn foams. And it's mainly because I went for a shoe that wasn't as sought after as Jordans or Foams that people aren't used to seeing on a daily bases. Even a guy in the footlocker was like damn them sh*ts look butta in person. I'm getting tired of clunky foams, from the price hikes to the wack color waves they've been putting out the last few years.
