    False. I balled in my black and reds 11's for a couple of years. After 10 years, they're still in decent shape.

    I got my shoes in already !

    I cant imagine anyone spending nearly $200 on sneakers that were assembled by child laborers

    I would rather blow $$$ on electronics

    Those child laborers wouldn't have jobs otherwise. And their little hands really make for fine stitching.

    When were those Black and Red 11's produced? Construction of a 're-retro' is suspect. OG's and 1st run retros are good products. I know you haven't hooped in those 11s exclusively; how many other new Jordans have failed you?

    There were re-released like 2000-2001 and I played in them for a very long time now that I think of it..no grip and all.

    Jordan 18's were solid too. I think the worst shoes I've played in that were a re-release are these..

    I don't think it is like that at all.

    It's like thinking you are buying a BMW (or any other luxury vehicle) using it for what it is meant for, driving, and finding you have a Pontiac Aztek under the hood.

    The apartment analogy doesn't fit in this case because I don't buy things beyond my means.

    $20 shipping would take some of the brunt of ebay cost.

    $40 profit isn't profit. The user had to pay tax also, and so with their time. I know guys who camped out at noon or even earlier. I don't know about you,b but my time is worth more than that. time vs money, and it doesn't add up to these dumb resellers trying to strictly buy to sell, when it wasn't that exclusive. Ebay fees and paypal fees, it almost adds up to 15%.

    The gift of giving is what matters to most folks I guess...
    If I had a pair I wouldn't sell it, I'll collect them like baseball cards...

    I wanted to resell the shoes for $100 profit per pair, but footaction was not able to complete my order. So now I might just scoop a pair for me if the prices go lower say around $200. :)

    Nearly every Men's size is still available at the UK Nike store online... jump on it if you have a connect across the pond.
