Think about it this way. You pay a homeless dude $20 to keep your spot. All the dude behind you does it give the homeless guy another $20 and he's gone.

... grown man clothes... but still moneyed b-boy prep... it's not for the flashy... but to put it together likethat either costs money for the gear... or patiently search it out... I just said I wear the same stuff... for a lot less...

Man, that really sucks on your part... I really want these shoes... I am a sneakerhead (wouldn't be on NT if I wasn't)... but I am also a family man with bills to pay and mouths to feed... you are basically saying I don't deserve these shoes because A.) I work hard so I can't camp out and B.) I put my family first so I am not going to drop a half months rent on a pair... that is sooo uncool that you want these shoes to be elite... why can't you just rock em cause you like em? You are basically saying that they won't be good enough for you if others can have them too... that makes me think that you are more concerned with the hype than the true aesthetics that make the shoe an elegant design... but there will be more. Maybe not this colorway and maybe not the sample pictured but there will be more. The law of scales of economy will be applied... how much do you really think the R&D on these was? If Nike sales 9000 pair @ $215 each then they will have made a little over two million on these... how much of that will be profit? even 90% profit would not have made this worth the time of a multi billion dollar international company. They create designs that can be reused and reappropriated... NTers and sneakerheads in general have created a hype for this shoe that Nike can now use as the best damn marketing campaign possible... am I really the only one on here that gets it???

Nike sells at a wholesale price to retailers...

Thanks for pointing that out... so Nike actually would have made less than 2 million I was giving them... that proves it for me right there... what would Nikeprofit from stopping the Yeezy now? It has become the most hyped shoe since the Jordan... they will make half a billion if they make this an ongoing model...how many brands does Ye have affiliations with? Can you imagine if (and IMO when) the collabos come out what Nike would have to gain in the long run... theycan milk this for a lot more than a measly 9000 pairs sold... these CWs may always be seen like the White Cement IVs, grails from here on out... but how manyother suitable Jordan IV CWs have released in the last 19 years??? I still want the UNDFTD IVs as much as OG cements... these Yeeezys can still be special tothe original "1st to cop" heads and they will probably retain value... but there will be wider releases of yet-to-be-announced colorways...
 
If I can gather 17 different NTers for the campout, I know one spot all 18 of us can shut down.
All 18 of us will get pairs for retail, we just gotta camp for it. Can I get 17 NTers?
Serious NTers only, no herbs allowed.
