Official Nike Air Yeezy 2 thread vol. 2 - 6/9/12 Global Release Date: NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

I actually did help out a couple cats around here, and flipped the rest on eBay, to help cover the hefty prices I paid for the other colors I couldn't get for MSRP.

Cool thing is, we got a small circle of us on here trying to help eachother out via pm and stuff, cus we know we're all just trying to actually wear them...

If someone on here does have a hook up on these and is thinking about passing cuz you just don't like em or whatever, and so you're leaving em for someome else who wants them, you should still cop and just sell em to someone around here you know is gonna wear them. Otherwise there's a good chance they're just gonna end up in a reseller's hands (most of these will initially).

I'm not trying to be negative nancy, but these selling out of stores for $1,500+ is a bad sign, and perfect storm and recipe for these to easily turn into a $3 - 4K type sneaker, and never come down.

Now what that one spot in Minneapolis is doing....foul in my opinion. Not only do you have to purchase a weak matching sweatshirt, but you're bidding on pairs via DM.


Same thing a store did here for the first Yeezy's. But they did an actual auction.
 
Chitown how big is the state st camp ? Also hows rsvp the chi camp may begin tonight if this is already happening we need to stick together to be safe at this point
 
I think what the "old"guys are trying to say here is...... dudes breaking their banks, or depriving their family of money that could be used more wisely.... "you better check yourself, before you wreck yourself".

anyone copping for that price and trying to resell has to mark it up even more to make a profit.

at this point it seems like a majority of these will be sold from stores for way over box price.

the only thing that could really change the game at this point is if nike surprises us all and they send a TON to corporate stores like FTL/HOH, NT, etc... in which case a ton will be out there that were copped at MSRP...

the reason galaxys came back down to under $1,000 is cuz most of them were sold thru corporate stores who have to sell at box price, not boutiques that can mark 'em up. gave the resellers wiggle room to come down and not actually lose money on them.

but on these, a lot of resellers are having to pay $1,500 just to get them out the door. a far cry from box price...

what would be AMAZING is if all these resellers buy these for huge mark ups and try to flip for $2K+ and then all of the sudden nike restocks a bunch of box price sellers, puts them on NDC, etc.... would really burn the resellers and make it hard for them to break even in a lot of cases...

Nike doing a big a restock and putting the shoes on NDC would permanently kill the re-seller game. It would be beautiful, but will never happen.
 
I bought my Yeezy 1's from this guy for $600 months after release date. Now the Yeezy 2's are starting at $2500-$3000 on release date? This is insane

There are people already lined up at HOH from what I saw this evening and at RSVP from what I read.
If that NT Chi campout was still going to happen it should happen soon, peeps be out here thirsty.

And someone already got stabbed out there at HOH state street.  I'm sure you'll hear about it if you haven't already.  Be safe everyone.
My boy text me about it but I wasn't sure if he was just messing with me since he was out for drinks.
I have finals tomorrow so I might stop by after and see what HOH is planning on doing now.
He wasn't messing with you.  I wasn't out there but I saw the video...

Glad I'm not the only one that thinks this is ridiculous.  Thats my state.
 
what if FL,HOH,FA decide to drop the morning of the 9th with out infoming us???? be pretty smart and would avoid galaxy headache....

From what I've heard confirmed, 2 stores in the country are getting them.  Hopefully more confirm this week, any other Alberta folk PM me and we'll try to get something going.
