resellers

The other 30 either haven't worn them yet or waiting for gooder

weather before application.

I gotta disagree with this statement.

I know everyone would like to say that resellers ruined this release but thats not the case and all you gotta do is look at the buy/sell market to realize this.  Lets say for example that Nike produced 70,000 pairs....I dont know for sure, and before you call me on it...NEITHER DO YOU!!!

  But we know these were a GR and they were heavily produced, probably more so than any other GR, but along with that came greater demand than we've EVER seen for a sneaker.  If you don't like 70,000 use 50 or 40 whatever you like, but we know there are LOTS!

now look at eBay and other seller markets.  Do a quick search for 'Jordan XI concord' and you will get approx. 2300 pairs of mens shoes.  From that you can probably take another 800 pairs off that number because of people labeling other shoes as concords and early release pairs and now you have about 1500 pairs for sale.  Yes there are some for sale through craiglist and other sites that provide private sales but look at the big picture.....even if theres 3000 pairs for sale, thats less than 10% of the amount produced.  And plus a lot of the ppl selling here and ISS and craigslist also have them on eBay.  I think everyone needs to also realize that most places you bought your concords from only allowed 1 per purchase.  The resellers got theirs, but they didnt get them from the places you woulda got yours.....at least not the REAL resellers.

just my 0.02.....

On another note.......I've worn one of my pairs 3 times and cant get enough of them.

That produced more than any other GR part is wrong.

A lot of stores only got two pair per size. Which wouldn't make it a large general release at all.

nice set brotha.
thought you were missing a ps in the concords til i saw the double strap.

so is this just for pure collection purposes or do you stay having kids yearly?
 
Resellers were born from this release. I did the wristband line up thing and used my magic to gain a few more pairs, but if I had a pair of Concords for every time I heard a 12 year old kid tell his mother (who was also on line) " Mom if I don't get my size I can just get another sizer and sell them and make money"....I would be swimming in Concords. If you don't think that these kids are going to grow into resale monsters your crazy. The game is doomed for the pairs that all the OG heads covet.

Every time I see a pair of these now I think of stupidity, I don't want to be mistaken for one of the idiots that camped out weeks or broke into the mall to buy sneakers.... THANKS JB you found away to ruin my favorite pair of shoes.

 I hate the stereotype that has surfaced with this release.

 you guys think you are breaking necks and people are admiring your shoes but in reality they are pointing and saying those are the shoes from the news that @#$@% are killing each other over.

This has bitterness written alllll over it. You guys notice, it's always the dudes that "passed" that seem to have a stynch of negativity looming over their comments?
 
It's kinda of presumptuous for me to just say because really, how can anything like that ever be proven. It's like the weather.

But don't be surprised to see sites promoting their restocks this week. Obviously, NDC and Eastbay won't but I would think others will. Prices will always be a tad bit more on those sites too. Somebody told me who works for something that shipments went out in small amounts to many places. I don't think chain stores are getting many in stock, so this will be mostly an online attempt this week.

No I just entered the tracking # into their shipping website.
 
Someone is trying to trade me DS CDP iv's + cash for my DS Concord 11.  How much cash do you think is fair?
