Laziness. Look it up on the usps price calculator. A shipping box probably weighs about 3 ounces. I always say my shoes weigh 3lb5ozs when i print a label. The doesn't even change between 3 and 4 pounds. At the MOST, he saved .75 cents.
actually he winded up losing $99.25, not saving $.75 :lol.

Damn, you better believe that I packaged up the pair that I sold for $875 with double bubble wrap all around along with peanuts in the box.

I even threw in some Nike Elite Football Cancer Awareness socks in the box for free...:D

you got to. for pairs that you get top dollar for tape that box up to the point where it is completely sealed shut. then get insurance for $1000 in case something happens to it so you can get $1000. also signature confirmation.

he should get the $50 off the insurance because even though it was a terrible idea not to double box it is still the shipping companies fault that the box and sneaker got damaged.
 
That's wild, glad you got some money back though. A crushed box is one thing, but those definitely took some damage.

Some recent and old pickups not pictured, but I desperately need '13 breds in an 11 and I'd be happy. Between my og 85 chicagos to the gym reds I just got, I have about 20+ pairs of 1s. Somewhat glad to see folks take more of an interest in them now as opposed to recent years, but damn can a brotha still get his pair without getting taxed these days!
 
 
Good news guys, after much back and forth with the seller he refunded me $100 for the damages during shipping. I was just glad he came to his senses and worked with me to come to a mutually beneficial agreement.

Thanks to everyone for all the helpful posts and PMs!
Nice! Glad you got it resolved. When I got my royals, the seller just wrapped the shoe box in paper. The box is beat but the shoes were fine.

I had a similar thing happen yesterday.. I went to the thrift store to look for Jordan's, and I saw a pair of black cement 3s sitting on the shelf. I thought I hit the jackpot, until I got within 15 feet of them.

LMFAO wow the Jordan 3 air max. They limited doe
 
Sad thing is the way things are that looks both higher quality than jb products and something they may release.
 
I wouldn't even worry about those creases sustained by the terrible packing job. Once you start wearing them the leather breaks in real nice and those creases will be a thing of the past. I've been wearing my royals to work out in and they have broken in very nicely.
