Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

[ohmeohmy]

So I’ve got a ton of 998, 997, and 1500’s NB I want gone. Everything from c-notes, tannery, London cabs, lux goods etc. I don’t wear those models any more and also need to clear some space. Any chance there are people out there that sell your stuff on ebay/stockx/goat and deal w the transactions/shipping for a significant percentage? I generally don’t have much free time or simply would just rather play w my kids.

What size?

Looks good, but can’t wait to see Ronnies 240+ characters of text about his love for a pink shoe.

oh, you know it’s coming. likely to include details about how important/memorable this silhouette is to him

 

[jamesandstl]

Also, I see a lot online about people have issues with people like opening cases against a seller from PayPal or something or the people send the item back and it turns out to be nothing in the box and just overall getting scammed by the buyer.

I thought of the same exact thing when I posted.

Consignment shops gouge super bad, youll end up paying probably about 30 percent of the sale, if your lucky. what size you wear?

30% would work for me.......11.5-12

 

[humboldtdr]

Better off selling it yourself. You can use the free medium priority mail boxes to ship and pay and print the postage from online. Only hard part is dropping the package off at post office. I would not cosign if you can help it. They will most likely under value your item and they want a huge percentage after sale.

I understand im better off numbers wise. It’s a time thing for me.

StockX sucks for numerous reasons. I sold a DS pair of M998RF on there and they sent it back saying there were flaws on it (they were referring to the slight yellowing on the all white sole due to the oxidation). I responded back saying that this was 100% normal for older shoes and they sent a half-hearted apology email and then proceeded to ghost me on future emails. This experience, combined with their numerous security breaches has me soured on StockX. I had a friend who used to work for StockX a couple of months ago quit because he said the company was horrible to work for. I asked him about the security breaches and he said "Dude, the ones publicized aren't the first time this has happened. There were multiple breaches in the last two years that NO ONE outside of the company knows about."

If I were you, I'd sell directly here on NT to homies who are an 11.5 (DM me I might be interested!) first so you can take out fees. After that, eBay is 100% the way to go. eBay recently dropped fees on sneaker sales over $100. So whereas they used to take 10% for using their platform, you now solely pay the PayPal fees. It's a WIN-WIN. Stay away from StockX.

Rant over. Happy Sunday, everyone.

As a physician who is currently caring for 170 covid pt's, and is struggling with PPE shortage, this is some solace.

I wanna thank NB.

STAY THE **** AT HOME, PEOPLE.

There's a reputable guy on Twitter (@DblocDunks) who does this all day long. Feel free to check out his feed and hit him up if you're still interested.
