I would think he went through a lot of work to get those. I wonder even if he did sell for those for 10 bucks above the retail like you said, if he'd besatisfied with the time he put in.

I'm guessing the picture in your avy is you based on education level.
Even IF he sold them at $200 PROFIT (means selling the shoe at $400 which includes cost+tax) it wouldn't even clear $10k.

rmk is good but the shipping takes mad long. took them awhile to leave hong kong's customs...
it took 6 days and then its stuck in customs right now in the u.s. the wait is frustrating. just a heads up to those considering rmk. you're actuallybetter off paying the same amount on ebay and getting them in three days, IMHO.

LOL I think the he meant he will end up netting $10,000 which of course wouldnt factor in his costs of over $8,000. Young people have a tendancy of thinkingthat if you got a shoe for retail of $175.00 and sell it for $375 you have made $375.00, quite contrare! Also have to factor in costs in the business world,GAS, TIME, TAX, HELP if needed!

With shipping included you're still paying $285ish and you're actually having to lose a couple weeks of shipping time.

just got mine in from the Eatsbay cancellation/restock.
if the Eastbay rep is still around, I too was annoyed at the labeling on the outside of the box. Doesn't seem to be a need for it. I'd prefer no oneknows what's inside the box. Mine got here in great condition, so no complaints.

it doesn't make sense to pay more and wait longer for something you can get for cheaper and faster.
3 days vs 12 days (from the time i paid) and counting...
you go on ebay, you find a bin or an auction about to end, you cop, you're done. you get the shoes in 3 days max.
you deal with rmk, you cop, you have to wait a few days before they ship, they ship, it gets stuck in hong kong customs for a week, it arrives here, gets stuckin u.s. customs, etc.
dunno about the rest of the ppl that don't have them yet but i wanna rock these. i'm tired of looking at them through a computer screen.

Those are probably sold already.
If he's smart, he sold them on release week when they were hitting peak sell-price. Hell, even now he would get $250+ for them. You factor the shipping andpackaging costs, you're looking at about $3,500+ in profit alone, around 5K if sold for $300+. That's pretty damn good no matter how you look at itimo.
Damn all that "where all the pairs go" BS. Gotta respect the hustle.

You could have ordered 2pr & then they would have sent in a undisclosed box. I believe they came from JB in that box listed like that so thateastbay knew what was inside & so that boxes are not damaged. Its smart, but stupid at the same time.

I wasn't trying to be greedy. Just needed a pair for myself. I could have ordered 10 pairs and put em on ebay. I was also nervous if I orderedmore than 1 pair, that my whole order would be canceled if the entire order couldn't be filled. All the cancellation restocks were gone in less than anhour....

Worst space jams or retro xi ever made period. It may look good but if you blind folded me and put shoes on and told me to walk around i would think the waspayless shoes. I put them next to my 01 xi red and black or my defining moments pack xi and its night and day on inside of shoe. i have another pair that stillhas not gotten here. I kinda hope the don't come and i get my money back. now i under stand when people sold them to make money. i thought the was crazyuntil the came in mail yesterday.
When i was a kid and you bought a pair of Jordans the felt like walking on clouds. Now its like walking on pavement were the toes are. Anyone who is not 30 orso may think the shoes are ok. but people like me who's first Jordans was the grape v in middle school when the came out originally. Im just mad the ruinedsomething that was once so great.
hey mj you owe me 150 bucks cuzz the only 25 dollar payless shoes with a jumpman and ice soles.
