Definitely not a steal, but got these for 550 DS..pretty good price considering some are going for 800+ nowadays

But my best steal all time was two pair of Bucks for 150 total.

CDP XI $80( Worn 4x)
Patent Leather $80 (Worn 2x)

I've had my fair share of steals, but just finding a pair of these was hard. Then on top of that they were DS. And even better than that I actually wonthem. lol

Not a steal but when the cdp 11/12 pack droped I had a connectand knew I was getting 1 pair but when I showed up on release day after everyone left they asked me if I wanted another sz 10 pack so I called my gf cause she was waiting in the car and she came in and bought it for me

My deadstock 1982 George Gervin (ICEMAN) Blazer PE's never laced is my best. Bought them from ebay. I was the only bid. I thought it was to good to be true but didn't mind taken a risk. The picture, 1 pic, on the auction was real low lit and foggy.  I really didn't know exactly what I was buying and could hardly make out  the back of the shoe, I just knew it didn't say Nike. Anyway, I still bid like normal and snipped a bid. Ended up getting them for $39.99, true story. This is also probably 2003.
1st photo I took of them , tried to make it look like a old vintage nike photo.





Ended up buying a game worn signed pair a year later to go with them.

After years of searching since release date, a miscommunication on a pair resulting of selling to someone else, then faked on a couple times for a trade + cash deal, and fraud attempts, I gave up looking for these, fast forward a year or 2 a couple years ago, a homie of mine in the Netherlands emailed me and said, "Yo Cris, you know anybody that would be interested in some DS, Size 8 Amsterdams???" Yes, ME!!!!!

Then Bam...........






Cris.

 

[fat boy 915]

How much would a DS pair of Amsterdams go for nowadays? Just curious.

 

[crisone]

Now...hmmm, I'd guesstimate $1100+

Cris.

 

[fat boy 915]

WOW.

 

[crisone]

^ Yup...glad I got mine for about $400 a foot shipped from NL, haha.

Cris.

 

[airedweezy]

I was about to say Dam just 400 then read a foot lol!

 

[bguira]

very nice cris. dang. i wish i could find a 10.5 for that much

 

[ksteezy]

in no particular order

-My dog- being that we don't have a child yet, our pug has filled that void in our family, owning a dog doesn't compare to having a child but im sure it gives us some preparation.

-My camera- opened up a whole new world of opportunities to me, overtime vie developed a good eye, taught myself photography and im learning how to manage my own business.

-My car- the sense of achievement when you purchase your own brand new car with your hard earned cash is incredible.

-My apartment- bought it about 3 years ago, definitely one of my biggest accomplishments (pick-ups) to date.

-My wife- picked her up 11 years ago, keeping her in good condition

she's my Grail

-My South Beaches - only because i scooped them up for 225$ when the going rate was about 600

COME AT ME BROS.

2004
Was away in college at Wilberforce University in Ohio. Went to the $+%+% Sporting Goods to Pick up the Retro 2 Bulls cw because they had them marked down to $74.99. I asked the the worker did they have anymore Jordans in the back marked down and she brings out the blk and chrome Jordan VIII in a 9.5 and they ring up for 15.99

. So I cop even tho I wear a 10.5 -11 so It just give them to my cousin who banged them to the curb in 2-3months
