Essential BRAD PIFF'S SNEAKER THREAD

[Brad Piff]

So this dude im selling my tiffs to on ebay asked for a picture of the price tag on the box and a picture of the receipt. A little odd i thought but I sent them.

Now hes asking for the receipt within the shipped box. I asked why if I already provided proof of authenticity. He says he's buying them for friend and needs it. This sounds suspect or is it just me?

If u already sent him pics why not just send the receipt to him? I send receipts to people if I have em even if they don't request them. Don't think it's suspect at all. Just take out or cut out any personal info on the receipt if there's any in there.

I guess I'm also a little leery due to the fact one of the three responses in his reviews are "Did not pay for item he won, buyer never intended on payment, do not sell or buy from this person"

 

[Brad Piff]

its not unusual for someone to take a few days to pay on there even though they should pay soon after theyve won. worse case scenario go to your options and pick "resolve a problem" & report them for not paying. just dont send the shoes before the payment clears.

How MJ made $90 million in 2013 Off The Jordan Craze
Nike released the Air Jordan 10 “Powder Blue” retro sneaker on Saturday, 20 years after the first Jordan 10s hit shelves. Like all the Jordan retro releases, this one was highly anticipated and first-day sales hit $35 million. For perspective, in all of 2013, Adidas sold $40 million in the U.S. of the signature shoes of its top star, Derrick Rose. The Bulls’ current star guard isn’t the only one operating in the shadow of Jordan. Reigning MVP LeBron James is the top seller among current NBA players with $300 million at retail last year for his Nike shoes, according to data tracker SportsOneSource. Jordan crushed those numbers with $2.25 billion in U.S. retail basketball salesin 2013. It has been more than a decade since Michael Jordan last appeared in an NBA uniform, but MJ most certainly has still got it.

Jordan made an estimated $90 million last year thanks to the rich partnership he enjoys with Nike. His 2013 earnings eclipsed those of all other retired or current athletes save boxer Floyd Mayweather. It marked Jordan’s biggest earnings year yet in a career paved with monster paydays, which peaked in Jordan’s last season with the Bulls (1997-98) at $80 million.

Jordan entered the NBA three decades ago after three years at North Carolina, where he announced himself to the country his freshman year with the game-winning shot in the 1982 National Championship game. Nike saw the marketing potential of Jordan, drafted third overall by the Bulls, and offered him a five-year contract worth $500,000 annually plus royalties. It was a huge sum at the time for a shoe deal, but it was a partnership that would lead both parties to unprecedented heights.

Jordan took the court his rookie year in 1984 in a pair of red and blackAir Jordans, which matched the Bulls’ uniforms, but did not feature any white per NBA protocol. The league banned the shoes and fined Michael $5,000 every game for wearing them. Nike covered the fines and capitalized on the attention with a commercial with the following voiceover: “On September 15th, Nike created a revolutionary new basketball shoe. On October 18th, the NBA threw them out of the game. Fortunately, the NBA can’t stop you from wearing them.” A marketing juggernaut was born. Read more..
