priorities > desires (no matter what your financial status is) ...

there has to be a breaking point where you say "alright man, enough is enough" because no matter how you analyze it, the buyers dictate resale prices. I have taken advantage of that many times and made serious $$ flipping pairs, and of course I have given into the hype and over paid for a shoe that I really "wanted" or "needed"... but when we are getting to the point where a somewhat limited $245 MSRP is going for almost $2k?? ... take a step back and really think about it, just saying...
you sir, are a scholar and a gentleman....

I just sent the pic to NIKESTORE and NIKE's twitter account.  NIKESTORE is wanting more info on the shoe.  So whoever owns this pair needs to contact them ASAP.
 
I officially threw in the towel after seeing the cracking. I'll buy them if I find a pair for under $500 so you can say I'll never get them. Can't see spending that much for something that peels. I mean if you spend $2000 to get your car or house painted and it peeled you would be pissed and want to return it but not with a $245 shoe lmao

I have been wearing mine casually for the past couple of days and it's been holding up.
No problem with my Solars either.

After seeing the problems with these, I'm re-thinking things. I'm definitely not in any kind of rush now.

Im serious though..because of this dude there no way I cannot drop less than $2 stacks.  I tried to offer dude $1800 and I am pretty sure he out beat me on that.  I thought it was someone else until I saw his tweet.
  @%+#@#..
 
to be fair, we've only seen 2 pix of paint cracking, they were both plats, and we don't know if they were being worn by obese people...

still pretty inexcusable, and it's insane to me that nike hasn't remedied this problem for once and for all, especially when it's time to produce what they surely knew was gonna be the most hyped sneaker of all time.

someone really does need to send these pix to nike and kanye.

and i'm sorry, dimez, but that's just hilarious to me... i would hate wearing the same size as that lil' gremlin, cuz his parents got infinite money so he will outbid you every time...
laugh.gif


did you actually find out for a fact it's him outbidding you?

wearing the same size as lil' blinky + the size they prolly make the least of = F M L...
laugh.gif
 
Iv'e given up all hope of obtaining a pair for now , its going to be a while until I get my pair because prices are still pretty high . I'm also not desperate enough to sell some of the shoes that have some value to obtain these and like Diplomat said "Patience"

I didnt win but the dude from akron right next to me at the bar did... seemed like there were more than 250 people in it. but im glad they raffled 18 pairs, i was thinking they would do like 5 pairs. I didnt wear my yeezys to CGS3 b/c i figured a bunch of people would have them on, but i only saw like 3 people with them on while i was there. Was my 1st time seeing the plats. i wasnt impressed, way better in pics than in person,  but they do look good on feet.

yeah I looked at the bid history and could tell on feedback... then he said he bought both that were on ebay.
man I dont think that 's really his size because I think he said he wears like a 6... 6.5 I think....

I knew this is the risk I would have to take before these dropped...I predicted this %!%+...
 
well has there even been a 6 - 6.5 on ebay tho? if not, he's prolly just grabbing the next best thing...

what size are you again?

man, it's gotta piss you off even worse knowing he beat his pair to the ground and posted a pic just for e-props, and he's prolly buying just to replace those...

btw, i'm trying to track down who that pair belonged to with the paint cracking...

it's just too perfect, the most hyped shoe of all time, everyone is dropping 2 stacks + for, has crappy quality and typical paint cracking...

there was a 6.5... went for almost 2400.
My true size is 7.5/ More of an 8 side.  I can wear early 2000 in an 8 and be ok.

Now It seem like nike make 7.5 big..so some shoes i'll go to a 7 mens....

I got an 8 in solars.  They fit ok...but I can tell they're gonna crease... so I want a 7. 
 
Which one of you doods are trying to sell the Bolars on Ebay for 3-6K autographed by DJ Clark Kent? I'm just curious as to why you think the autographed box makes the shoe anymore valuable?? SMDH...
 
i remember when Franalations told me he wouldn't pay reseller prices on the 2's, dude just dropped $2k+ each on multiple pairs of solars
laugh.gif


wish i was handed money like that

Finally was able to secure a pair of Black/Solar's.

Coming from across the pond, so now the waiting game begins.
