I bought a Carbon 15 when I was 18
Just came up on over $400 bucks the other day selling Jordans I got when I used to be a sneakherhead, over double what I paid for em.

This seems like a good side hustle for when I start college, I'm really bout to come up on these dumbazz hypebeasts :ohhh:

I've seen people eat off of reselling shoes. It takes dedication though; having to wait in line for shoes and buying at least two pairs to sell. If you do it right you can make a nice sum of cash.

I feel like I can eat real good off this since I know which shoes are gonna be hot and which aren't. The hardest part to me would be looking like a cornball standing in line for some shoes doe. The wait time dont even bother me, I just don't wanna be one of "them":patrice:

Im only finna do local meetups. It's easy money since I live in the burbs now and these young spoiled hypebeast are willing to pay the cost to be the boss.
I was legit lookin at these lil nikkas like :heh: when I see how eager they are to get ripped off

Don't the websites be lagging alot when they about to do a big release? I heard you gotta be extra quick when you ordering limited releases online

Friend of mine liquidated a lot of his collection, used the money as part of a down payment on a condo.

It's possible to do this so long as the game stays up, just gotta keep your ear to the ground and see what the next hot things will be.

yeah you gotta be quick with it but you get used to it after a while.. nikestore doesnt lag out but the others do... if the site lags out you just gotta keep refreshin til youre able to get on.. i rather do that than camp out on line for releases & i pretty much get any release i want online

"What The Lebrons" :scusthov:

Idk why these hypebeasts go crazy over the "What the _____" shoes, they so damn ugly. Kobe and KD got them too I believe.

Idk man I would hold on to them their value could go up even more, that's why I'm a little reluctant too sell my Entourage Lebron 8s :patrice:
