are some pairs much less tumbled than others in the swoosh/heel area? And are some extra laces wrapped in a circular ball?

Hmmmm now that these released... Will Jordan brand ever retro collabs like the Fragments again or is it like once in a lifetime?

JB retros everything. Collabs aren't exempt from that. We've seen it happen over and over

Yes, but I've seen some happen way sooner than expected. DB 3s for example

So true
I think for quite some time eBay had no option of adding insurance into the shipping cost, optional or not
CYA
Always send insured unless you don't mind taking the risk...I personally never take the risk unless something isn't even close to $100

Not everything. Nike/JB is more likely to retro an OG color but retro+ colors are hit or miss especially when it comes to collabs.

I can't see frags retro'g anytime soon if ever....so a retro in the sense of a new production run of a collaboration between Jordan and the outside partner I would imagine would involve a new contract and new profit sharing margins. My understanding has been that both the collaborator and Jordan (or Nike) own a portion of the design. While Hiro has an individual contract with Nike his Fragment design company has a separate contract for its collaboration. While I know from time to time you will get a collaboration that pops up on the site not long after a release .... what was the last Jordan collaboration reissue.

Also consider the fact that Nike can release the frag color way stripped of the fragment branding. They did do it with the sock darts. GRed a few of those colorways without the fragment treatment maybe 2 years or so after the fragment drop.

I could see JB releasing white tongue Frags....always changing just a little. You know they're still holding out on the black tongue black toes, just trying to double dip on that colorway.

They've got nothing to gain from that at that point. Demand for 90% of retro+ colorways is wayyyyy down. It's not what the people want so I think it would be wasted move. What they would do is probably drop the shoe with a slightly lighter or darker shade of blue, just to make it "different" enough to consider it a rerelease.

I actually think this was the thinking behind the 'sour' blue 1.5s

Yeah but again Nike isn't stupid, those weren't a targeted release, much like the rare airs. If they want to retro the frags they'll do it in an acceptable way

I for one love the black background.
Studies have shown that this type of setup is actually easier on the eyes, short term and long term. That's why all types of industrial control rooms, that run any type of computer controlled automation have black screens with any color font on top. Even the water system and dispatches (PD/Fire) have it.
Just a lil Fyi...
