I'd be leery of those Frags if thats the trade.Theres not a person on the planet who doesn't know what frags are worth.

sounds too good to be true. hope it works out
 
The majority of the world doesn't know what Frags are worth, let alone exist..:lol

I'm meaning there isn't a person who owns the frags that doesn't know the worth of them. My fault.

Thats why i thought it was too good to be true. What moron with frags would make that trade?

I was hoping he was, but I guess he came to his senses.
 
My only beef with the whole trading of sneakers business , is are people only trading for what is deemed equal "by the market" or trading for what they truly like ? I know it didn't happen but If the dude really wanted the LMs and giving up the Frags was worth it in his opinion, I don't think that makes him an idiot. Maybe depends on why you're in the game.

I tried trading a pair of bred lows for Melo 1s and the annoying *** high school kid wanted me to throw $ on top because the Melos were "worth more" . The local FB groups are more of a pain and a microcosm of everything wrong with this hobby.

I hate the trade game. I think if shoe's are $50-$75 apart, its equal. I think its laughable if ANYONE has to throw in $40-$50 on top. Thats just being a cheap bastard.

But when you're talking about one shoe is double the price of another shoe.............

It makes no sense. Unless they were friends. I traded Bred XI's for Royals to a homie. He doesn't like 1's and I had a extra XI. This was week after release of royals.
 
The double up
1000

Trade game has gone to the hole...

I wanted to trade my breds for pair a royals and folks be asking for $200-300 on top???? Lmao
 
Yea.
I'm not seeing this from a resellers point of view that's why
this is business at the end of the day. Majority of people will not lose out on money to do you a favor. If royals are selling for more than the breds in the aftermarket (which they are) you will most likely have to add cash.

I fully understand that...I guess Im old skool...I enjoyed those days of exchanging shoe for shoe when there was no "market value" labeled on them...

that was a completely different time. Jays would go on sale and you could find them for under 100. I'm not trying to deter you from your trade though, if someone thinks like you do it might get done. Or maybe someone might only ask for $100 on top
 
If your friends. You don't add. That's the old days. Pplhave always wanted cash on top in them situations where there's a diff in market value (the more expensive pairs at least) if you both don't know each other
 
Even from outside a that point of view, his royals are rarer your breds.

$100 I can do...anything more than $300?

Maybe in your eyes...but I see as much Royals as Breds...

Hows the hype in Australia? I know folks go crazy for Flyknits
 
One second here. There were roughly 750k black and red 11s made and they've been released 3 times prior

Royals had roughly a 25k production rate with many pair being distributed over seas we only two previous releases.

There undoubtedly is less pairs of royals than b/red 11s

Hypes worse here for Jordan's cos they give us 2 stores for hares and 1000 ppl entered at each. Supply isn't anywhere near the demand so Jordan's get so much attention I can only cop from overseas
