i agree with you 100%.. its just the mindset of resellers thats wrong... they main problem, they also buy sneakers for themselves, so that cuts into there potenial profits( cant get high off your own supply).. if they didnt care at all about they're product.. they could make a very decent profit (and some do)... but if someone was moving say 10 pairs a month for an avg of $75 at the end of the year thats $9000.. nothing you can live on by any stretch of the imagination, but that could definitely take car of a few bills, vacation, home improvements etc... if resellers looked at the game like that, then they'd be on top..
i know a few guys that they make triple that reselling but their getting FSR of basically everything that has value,

Are you referring to the "new" NDC where all the bot braggarts on here won't prosper? Or when the Lebron XII drops?

PRETTY MUCH.
THIS IS TRUE OF ANY MATERIAL GOOD. WHETHER IT BE SNEAKERS OR GOLD. THEY ARE ONLY WORTH WHAT OTHERS WILL PAY.
I WOULD KILL FOR MY CURRENT STOCKS/INVESTMENTS TO SEE THAT PERCENTAGE OF RETURN.

Is it? Not for some on here. You can go back and you'll be able to put the Captcha (2+2) together to figure who had problems picking up the Elites today and who were the straight edge suckas.
And there isn't going to be a new NDC. If Ticket Master can't solve the bot problem then neither than Nike unless they're going to inject an insane artificial intelligence/shady buyer defense algorithm on the site.

But then you wouldn't feel "cool" by busting out a fresh pair that hardly anyone has.....
Lol sorry man, couldn't resist, just giving you a hard time, no offense meant. All in fun. I collect as well and don't really understand the "cool" factor because only about .01% of the population would even notice a rare kick or PE. I just buy what I like and what makes me happy but you gotta do what makes you happy I suppose.

Never once said that every pair I own needs to be limited/special. I have shoes I love that aren't worth squat (Atmos x Pony Slam Dunks, Way Of Wade 2.0's, etc)

..and you're a liar if you even elude to not wanting limited kicks.

Everyone's all about that "Wolf Grey 3's" that just dropped and I'm over here thinking like, yeah, and just like how the Carmine's are the new Grape 5's, everyone and their baby mama just wearing those shoes. I just think the Bred 11's are ruined too.
When I go out, I don't see anyone wearing King's Crown. I don't see anyone wearing Gator Kings. I will be proudly wearing the Elite SE's to the Gym.
I will be posting up some great pictures of the Elite SE once it comes in.
I personally can't stand when I go out and see someone else with the same pair of shoes as me. That's why I STOP buying Jordans.

saw the gator king restock the other day. can't believe they're still available. I didn't personally like that CW...but tons of folks did.
Only Gumbo League shoe I picked up was the KD....

Taking my comment wayyy to seriously man. Relax. All in fun like I said. And as I stated in my post, it doesn't matter to me if it's limited or not, If I like the shoe and actually get through, that is all the reward I need, whether it be a gr jordan or the mvp Xs.
And you stated what I quoted literally word for word lol, not much to analyze really. Cant really call anyone "lame" when you get all excited over wearing a shoe that hopefully someone will notice and think more highly of you lol.

This is why i have also lost interest in Jordan's and have been moving more to the Lebron's and KD's...

I live in a small town, so I never have a problem with seeing tons of other guys wearing the same kicks as me....but I think it'd get on my nerves if it happened a lot.
...but here's the thing. Most of us are huge fans of Nike...and I'd imagine the majority of folks on this forum have collections that consist mostly of Nikes. That said, you're gonna have a really tough time standing out in the crowd if you wear Nike/Jordan shoes all the time. If you want to be different, cop Puma, Saucony, Asics, Greats, Diadora, etc etc etc. If you're walking around in some WestNYC x Saucony Cabin Fevers, I doubt you're gonna run into another guy with the same kicks as you....

And you shouldn't need sneakers to make yourself stand out or to be different. (No one cares what shoes you are wearing anyways, trust me, unless they are just beat to absolute hell) But if that is what makes you happy, cool, no reason to resort to personal attacks.
I mean this in the humblest way possible but I body build, the shoes I'm wearing are the last thing people notice about me. And I don't really care if people notice them or not, bc who cares what other people, especially strangers in a damn mall, think about you. I was just having some fun with you, no need to take offense.

As for buying limited shoes, I did, do and always will get a kick out of it. There's a sort of high involved with actually getting them, first of all, because it's so difficult to do...and then there's the secondary satisfaction of knowing you have a shoe that stands out in a crowd.
...but again, I'm not one of those guys who acts like GRs are beneath him. I've got tons of GR sneakers. I bought a pair just the other day (black/gum LBJ XI lows). I even pay full retail for a really expensive GR here and there (Kings Pride, Miami Nights and Everglades LBJ XI's would be the perfect example). There are some really nice GR sneakers dropping on a regular basis. Hell, the majority of the Jordan retros folks lose their minds over are nothing more than glorified GR shoes....and God knows I've bought more than my fair share of those over the years.
...but, honestly, I don't know how any guy in the sneaker hobby could say "I don't want to own any limited sneakers" and mean it. I'd have to question whether that person's telling me the truth or not...because I can't grasp that concept. It doesn't matter what hobby you're involved in, you're gonna want to own the more rare/expensive items...be it comic books, toys, ball cards or whatever. Is there a ball card collector out there who wants the 1989 Topps baseball and 1989 Upper Deck baseball factory sealed sets equally? There can't be....
