Retail or bust.
Sometimes you have to pay a little more before release because some shoes go up even more once they release.
The Thought Of Nike Actually “STOPPING Resellers” Is Laughable At This Point BruhSMH @ Nike tryna stop resellers yet they allow back door wide open .
never understood the concept of paying well above retail prices before a release
yes i understand peace of mind but dam dont count yourself out, but I know money isnt an issue to some so paying resale is nothing
You Do Realize These Are Being Backdoored, BY THE CASE, Right?Stealing cases and allowing backdooring are two different issues. I would imagine the early pairs that are circulating are stolen or fakes.
That's your opinion unless you took the picture, these could have been stolen off a truck for all you know.You Do Realize These Are Being Backdoored, BY THE CASE, Right?

Sorry To Break It To Ya But I’m Speaking Facts
The Thought Of Nike Actually “STOPPING Resellers” Is Laughable At This Point Bruh
Meanwhile…
I dont think the markup is as much as we think it is. The stores with Nike accounts are prbly asking for twice the retail price and selling it in bulk to the resellers. Resellers are asking for an additional $3-400 or something close to that, on top of each pair. Lets say they get 40 pairs from a single store. That's 12k and then they gotta go and barter with other stores and get all their stock. I don't condone reselling but its just a Ponzi scheme to make money at this point. On that tangent, I walked into a store today and grabbed the orange air ships lol. Asked the dude at the store if they were sellin out and he's like nope, full size run. People only come in for pairs they can flip (dunks, Jordan 4s, and jjjjound asics collabs)Son!
Let's say they were "stolen" from a truck or train, given the prices they are going for in the resale market, that's possibly a 40k to 60k come up... that's bananas!
But I'm leaning more towards a mom and pop or boutique offloading their product, which is also bananas... they want a piece of the action too
Man, this sneaker game is crazy
Stores are definitely doing it though.Thinking these stores are willing to backdooor shoes for maybe an extra $100 over retail and possibly loosing their Nike Account is crazy. These shoes are stolen and fakes are definitely mixed in. These replica manufacturers have the same Nike containers because they also make legit products. It’s already been confirmed.
Nail on the head. When you’re 18-20 years old and making $15hr. Selling 10-15 pairs early for $100-$150 a pop is tempting.Stores are definitely doing it though.
Most of the time it's a manager-type not the owner. They don't care if they lose the account.
Rich people like the same limited shoes you like… Only difference is they got way more disposable income than youAnd as long as you chumps keep paying resellers, this will continue to happen.
The coldest part about all of this? It’s that these shops will take your info from entering their “raffles” and sell it off to big marketing groups…
NikeTalk imaginations run wild
So the owner just like, maybe all the Jordan 1s that were in the stock room just vanished and won’t ask questions??? Right….
