Yepp attempt. Source of your made up figures? virtually the same? Sure dudes are asking that while 75% of pairs haven't even reached houses yet.
Glad you and [@=https://niketalk.com/members/90136"lower the value of royals"u dudes kill me it ain't that serious there's real life going on out here, these are just shoes. some of u kids gotta lighten up .
and yeah, i was mistaken on the royals being retro'd comment. so kill me.
Man chill with that noise in this thread. Its cool you got them and want more but that comment keep it to yourself. You see all these dude wanting just one pair and you come here with that. Yeah not cool.

Nice haul! Did you manage to scoop up both at Serramonte? I heard that place was a zoo.
not for nothing but Royals did restock at a variety of places throughout the year this year. Mostly new Villa and HOH store openings, but they were available. combine this with the fact that the royals never released on ndc. i'm not saying they are a GR, but to compare these with the royals? i don't think that's possible.I'm pretty sure the same amount of all the OG 1's (minus the black/gold) were made in the same numbers, just different demand and that magic word we've been throwing around in terms of royals, "allocation". This release is just an aftermath of the royals. Nobody wanted to miss out on these, even if they didn't truly want them the resell value was enough to make everyone want to grab these.
Oh and not to toot my own horn but remember a couple months back when I was saying these would resell for whatever royals were going for on the market by the time they released, and would eventually go for $600....and a couple scoffed at me claiming GR, it's Christmas and its a black/red colorway so that = abundant pairs
Right.. it doesn't bother me, but was the " i only need one more pair" comment necessary ?

My source is my own common sense and eyeballs. The same stores I tried to cop Royals from had double bred stock. Villa is a prime example of this. Not every Villa received Royals but all Villa's received Breds. In fact, only 2 Villas in Chicago received the Royals and got only 8 pairs a piece. Saint Alfred's received 7 pairs of Royals and 20+ pairs of Breds etc etc. Some might say allocation was different but I don't agree with that assertion. IMO more Breds were produced yet you still have virtually the same prices for both shoes. Breds are just more highly thought of in the world outside of NT.
you guys know.....

No salt here just saying... just didn't like the unnecesary comment..after many hours at the camping spot and some scares because some goons didnt want to follow tge list and almost got away with it, me and my lady were 1 & 2 and a fellow cool niketalker that I met there was 3rd. Only 13 tickets were handed out and made it out safe and the journey was over. It was tiring but I had a good time not going to lie especially having some cool people there with you.
Just glad I got my pairs after the work I put in. Thank God!!!
