Another part of me is looking at the money to be made.

Damn it!

No new information here. Of course Nike is gaming the system. And doing a great job. How else would you expect them to recycle previously released versions of shoes way above inflation considering they spend zero dollars on marketing. You've never seen a retro Jordan magazine ad or commercial. They rely exclusively on the hype they create by making sure not everyone gets their product. If they make enough for everyone, shoes lose their "exclusivity" and consumers lose interest. Nike's only interest is revenue and they know how to keep those streams flowing steady. 10 years ago the retro sneaker community wasn't very strong outside of greater NYC and some scattered big market cities across the rest of the country. I live in a pretty big city (San Diego). It truly caught on here about 4 or 5 years ago. Now it's global. All thanks to creating an artificially constrained supply. For those of us still in this thread it means good luck getting your hands on a trusted pair of chi 1s.

jordan used to have a magazine/booklet type thing, with jordan brand interviews and interviews with large collectors. used to get em in the mail every once in a while

that was super long ago. I used to get them too. I think one of the very last ones I got were the 18's/19's original release. 

 

[kilroythedon]

They put in work to get JB where it's at man.

Damn once an item is sold and even the label is created a deal is done

they were pretty cool, sure i've got one or two hanging around in some drawer 

.

only promo for shoes for me used to be SLAM, and the middle eastern dudes on Fulton St. showing me their release calendar

Hoping to get a trade done for a pair today (sadly not my size). How much cash do you guys think is needed from the other party if I gave up two pairs of black red xi low for their pair of Chicago 1's?

about $180.

Seems generous to do a straight 2-1 deal. But I might make that deal...hope it doesn't fall through.

 

[solecali]

about $180.

Damn $180 and Chicago 1 for 2 pairs of xi low's? I doubt the guy I'm talking to will do that. I was thinking of asking for $30-50 cash.

Yeah, that dude up there is trippin

I can def see $30-50 cash but at the same time I wouldnt do it because I wouldnt want to risk losing the deal

You never know, the dude could stop resonding when you bring cash up

Just take the deal and run IMO

Youll make that $30-50 back when these dry up for good

 

[sneakerfan1]

Lol.  I'd sooner snipe two pairs of those Low 11s off ebay for the 220ish going rate than to do that deal AND add cash to the Chicagos.  If someone is down to give you Chicagos for 2 GRs, take that deal and run.

 

[solecali]

Ok. Rep @getemchavez and @sneakerfan1 for the advice. It helps that I have over 10 pairs of xi low...haha.

Lol

1 month spike, 2-3 month drop, then steady rise. That's usually how it goes

It's all in the timing.  And if Nike for some reason decides to release them online, I expect a price drop while eBay gets flooded.
