nothing can be done. The price on the box is MSRP, Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price.... This shoe is an automatic sellout, its not like an odd AM95 colorway, these shops talk to each other to set prices for stuff like this. And I dont think they are wrong for doing so, with all these resellers talking about charging $2k+ these stores would be stupid to not charge more than $245. Its only smart business to charge as much money as people are willing to pay for an item.
I understand that "its not fair" or "I really want them to wear", well I want a ferrari to drive and I dont think they should be so expensive.

Yeah I dont agree with that format. I think they should do a raffle.
They could sell the raffle tickets for a $3-$5/one for each person on designated /& donated the money to charity.
When people buy there raffle tickets have them put their first 4 digits of their license/ID and name or some proof so tickets can be limited to one person. and if they try to buy more then 1 they are DQ from the drawings and their money from the first ticket want be refunded.
For his loyal customers give them 2-5 raffles tickets for no charge at all to higher their chances.
Have all the rules printed on a index card size paper and give it to them when they receive their ticket.
Meet up at the deginated time and have a nice size black trash bag to shake the tickets and good luck to those who particpated!
I really dont trust that hand picking stuff.... for all we know they could keep all the pairs for theirselves lol hand picking theirselves id say..thats why im so oppose to that format. I think this could be the time were they could help out an organization, build store awareness to new customers, and sale the shoes for what the intended price.

This is comedy. Do you guys know what you can do with $1,000- $3,000???
Stuff like this makes buying New Balance and Reebok pumps a whole lot easier.

That is essentially what I would do if I was able to get two pairs, I've been asking dudes that have PM'd me (from Dallas) they're shoe sizes but if I can get my Black size 11 and somehow can get another I'd cop and sell for the price I paid. Seeing how some of those people seem so hopeless it's sad so I though I could help. I did the same for the Space Jams but knew who I was helping.Originally Posted by DJ Proto J
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.
