Don't fall for those ebay prices people... 99% of them are shill bids. Look at the bid history of them - 0 feedback! Also, there is a size 12 going for$710... COME ON NOW!

And it's gonna be deadbeat central too.
Some people will get legit profit funds here and there, but it 100% what it seems.
As usual...

it is what it is...
this is American and its a free country...if you have $$ to purchase something and someone else misses their chance...the missed chance is valued at the extra amount the reseller charges...the age old question...HOW MUCH IS YOUR TIME WORTH...
when the CDP came out last year...I bought Two packs at $495 shipped...why...because I earn enough to make sure I don't have to spend hours in the cold to get them...
why does someone drive a BMW when a Toyota is just as reliable...because some want leather riding up their crack and can afford to have so...
do you guys knock doctors who have to charge $90,000 for a liver transplant and they rock a rolex...
this thread has actually gone from hypebeast reselling arguments to a class system argument..god's and clauds...
for you youngn's ...the stock market is a slot machine dressed in a suit and everyday there are millions made by firms...every dollar made means somewhere someone lost a dollar...theres only so many dollars...
My suggestion and MODS please step in...how about the hypebeast reseellers stop posting for a day...
just my two cents...
it's a muta*** shoe...grail or not...it's plastic/leather/rubber..... can't imagine what the zuh zuh forum looks like Christmas eve...
^^^I feel you on this. Im a collector as much as Im a reseller. Hey, its better than selling drugs and its legal..lol. But im not a reseller in the way that Iwould go and couple a stack of multiple pairs to flip. Im good with getting a pair for myself and maybe 1-2 pairs to sell. So I can feel people being mad atthe guys buying a sh*t load of these only to jack up the price for the people that really want these. But in the economy we live in, whats wrong with making afew extra dollars? If people are willing to pay that price then so be it. Im not not one of them and wont be, im only 29 years old and been into sneakers since9. I would cop heat here and there back when I was young but when it comes to actually really collecting, Im only 4 years strong. Its a expensive habit and oneof the ways I can afford all these shoes is from reselling. We all do it. We know the value of our shoes, would you want to get rid of a pair of shoes you ownfor a lower price knowing they are worth much more??....Just my opinion on this but not all resellers are bad. lol.

*sigh* looks like my hook up isn't going to come through. I knew I should've gotten another pair.
I really don't wanna pay these re-sell prices so anyone taking trades for their SJs?

- They hand out index cards, but I can't obtain a size 10.
- I go to Footaction at 11:45 last night, who received 180 pairs (about 10 of each size) and they open at 5:30 AM. They have a line of 15 people already, so I waited.
- An hour later (1 AM), more people arrived, making the line enlarge to 25. The security makes us stop standing in front of the store.
- Before we leave, we all create a list of who was in which place. We take pics of it for proof.
- I sit downstairs until 3 AM, and cops come and check our information for some reason. They then tell us to leave and return at 7 AM (The store opens at 5:30 AM)
- I go with my instincts and arrive at 4:45 AM. At 5:30, they say we can go to the stores. Everyone pulls a Usain Bolt to the Footaction, but the people on the list just speed walked there.
- People who just arrived 5 minutes beforehand thought that they were the first ones in line. People were even laughing at the thought of creating the list. Funny enough, the Footaction decided to go with the list and we ended up in the front, while the others who laughed at the list were in the back of the line. People were heated.
- I scoop up my size 10 with easily and leave to get some McDonalds (Steak, egg and cheese bagel FTW).
In the end, there were about 70 names on the list, so the 70 people were in the front of the line (I was somewhere between 18-20). I had to go back to the mall to get gift cards, so I went to Footaction to ask how long it took for them to sell all 180 pairs. Well, they started at about 6 AM, and they were all gone by around 8 AM. Also, my Space Jam XI's also have those white balls, and a small glue stain on the tounge, but the carbon fiber and everything else was perfect. I'd say that this was a good purchase for me.
TaggPopperNJ: I'm glad you got your pairI didn't know any pairs were still left around here.
These came in today also. Thanks xilegacy.
Newport Mall? whooaaa!..lol. I used to live in Jersey City, I know it had to be crazy out there. Ive been hearing storys all over the place about thisrelease.. I couldn't imagine camping out for these. especially in JERSEY!!??...lol. Talking about 20 degree weather right now. Good you got your pair, Feelbad for those that didn't. My boy is tight right now, Finishline.com played him on his 3 pairs. He got the email today that he's not getting them.

Can we stop getting pictures of what the shoes look like? My god we have all seen them by now its getting ridiculous, and to the sad people who have to resellfor money we don't need pictures of 15 boxes. Those of us that have them can see them.

On some real $@$%, that's not fair to everyone who missed out. That's what I was saying yesterday. The 0 feedback people are either deadbeats or shillbidders. Look at all those high price auctions. What are the chances of everyone making an account just to buy some Space Jams. I feel sorry for the legitsellers too, because I've gotten @++!$@ over by buyers who press Buy It Now, so they won't pay and leave negative feedback.

Damn, I was there all tripped out none of my online orders went through, but I ended getting my 3 from shoetrends yesterday and my 2 from ndc like 10 secondsago.
Dealt with the madness for nothing
Fights left and right riot police geared up pepper spray guns in hand ready to pop off! It was crazy!!!!
My boy got up in there and bought 18 pairs though and they interviewed him for the new. I bet dudes who waited and didn't get from Arden were mad salty
Sacrameno has so many damn sneaker heads. Northern California is just bad in general, unless you live in the boondocks, like watsonville (no offense)

snipes shop has a fsr. i just ordered 2 more size 11 for 220 a piece. thats not bad at all. thats like retail plus shipping for those who missed out. if youwant to check it out just google snipes shop and you will find the link. i hope i can find more restocks. back in august i paid 300 shipped for a pair fromair- randy and i just sold that same pair last night for 350. i got 2 other pairs that i got on discount from work for 132 a piece.
at all those hatersthat talked crap about people buying these early. there the ones that are now scrambling to find a pair on ebay paying 350+.
