You'd have to ask the guy who posted earlier in the thread. That wasn't me, I just answered someone else's question.

Any of the over seas people that got a pair with the materials sticker inside, does it show if there is any actual leather in these, or are they full synthetic? And can you post a pic of the materials sticker?

Not just the shoe game, it's a global phenomenon.Dumbest theory ever man. One of the reasons why I want to quit the game, it's just flooded with idiots
The world is full of idiots, reproduce and make more idiots, ETC.

sneakerheads are wierd.. if these were limited like chicago 1's you would be paying 400-500 dollars for these for these shoes. thirsting.. but since they are GR people cant pull the trigger on 220.
these are classics with the Nike Air.. you cant pass that up.. in a couple years they will be reselling 400-500 dollars.

It's simple, sneakerheads are hypes, no matter how hard they try to deny it. The only want to spend big money on something that not that many other people have. It's all about bragging rights and wanting to be the "best" at something. It's about impressing others and having something you can be proud of. That goes all the way to the people that collect PEs. It's nothing wrong with it.
If these were limited to 100 pairs at 400 dollars, people would be complaining that they didn't make enough pairs for the general public and they don't care about the average consumer.

That's practically any industry. When new cars come out they go for full sticker or above...
People want what they can't have or can't get easily.
Right now supply is outpacing demand. If/when Nike resets this up to where demand outpaces supply 2-1 game back on. At the moment not the case.

Why don't you reread my post and see that there's an IF. IF people continue to buy Jordan's despite the increase in price, NIke Increasing their prices to 300 is definitely plausible. If you honestly think I meant overnight, you're an idiot. In ten years, if they continue to raise the prices AND people continue to buy mass quantities of it, why would they not increase prices? If people buy at 220 (which it shows they have), if they buy at 240, and then 260, 280, 300 will happen. That's why I used IF. I have faith in humanity though. I hope people aren't that stupid enough in the future.

Almost everyone seems to want to be exclusive on here, yet most can't comprehend that paying for a Jordan logo is as common as it gets. Even the most limited Jordan's usually represent a retro model that has been seen numerous times. Ironic...and to your point, if these Maroon 6's were limited, people would be complaining about availability that couldn't cop.

A $30 increase in just over 12 months is unreasonable, especially considering retros were $40 cheaper before the first price hike. JB's been on some straight BS ever since this Remastered nonsense.

From a company standpoint, it's not unreasonable when you have people paying 400 for Chicago 1s, or 600+ for Bred 1s. I actually don't blame resellers. I blame the people willing to pay resellers. If people would stop paying ridiculous prices over retail, we wouldn't have been in this situation. Nike saw an opportunity to capitalize on unrealized profits and they took it, as they should. Everyone's complaining about the 30 dollar hike and yet everyone is still paying this price. I swear if these were 250 with only 100,000 pairs, people would be up in arms about the limited availability for such a "classic shoe". You miss out on a release, you move on to the next one. You cave and pay resell prices, don't get mad when Nike decides to charge you the same and cut out the middle man. Increased prices led to increased profits for Nike so at the end of the day, they don't really give a **** about consumers because profits WILL ALWAYS be the bottom line.

Just wait, retros will hit $280 next year. Nike's willing to take the risk of losing initial sales. They'll still make a killing after releases go on clearance for the price point they should've sold at to begin with.

Having worked for Nike for years and knowing their business practices. How do you expect them to make bigger revenues and more profits:
1.) Price increase
2.) create more of their "Quickstrike" product, such as these 6's
Every shoe that comes out recently has been way to easy to purchase this year. It feels like 2012 right before the big IG wave. When you can get anything on NDC. Nike had a great fiscal year this past and the only way to beat it, are those 2 factors. They are promising to be a 50 billion dollar company. Yeah, this is the beginning of the end, Look at the next few releases, PSNY 12 price tag, expect more of that.

L O L.
This.
Nothing is sacred anymore. Nike is trying to condition everyone to the new reality: stop paying resale and pay the source. Can't get them today? No worries, it'll be restocked or re-released later. And again after that.
