I'm just now becoming a lil bit of a sneakerhead and somebody showed me the Jordan 12 wool and I gotta have them, brehs.

I wear 11.5 and everywhere I look, they're $400+. Is that normal? :why:

Can somebody recommend a way for me to get some type of deal on these?

They released a while back so you're only going to be dealing with resellers but check ebay. Honestly though I'd suggest go for more recent drops like Playoff 12's or Black Taxi's that achieve the same look with the resale not being nearly as high.

Y'all going after those 9's tomorrow? There doesn't seem like a lot of hype and resale isn't very high, should be easy to cop. There are a few colorways I like but the UNC ones are not one of them so I'm sitting this one out.

If you’re going to spend $400+ on shoes, it better say Fendi, Gucci or LV on it. fukk I look like spending that kind of dough on basketball shoes that only the kids would appreciate.

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster

Man. You aint lying. Just got back from Manchuria and every airport i visited, little ass kids was breaking they necks (a toddler stretched the hell out his stroller doing a double take, haha).


The polar end of the spectrum was senior citizens axing if they came like that or i bought two different shoes. Lol.



Good convo piece tho.

I won the raffle on a ma maniere(I’ve had more Ws on there in one year than all 8 years of snkrs) But yea these are sitting everywhere. Because of course no one buys Jordans over 4 anymore. Full size run on snkrs. They are closer to the OGs with the jumpman logo on the back heel.

You better not pay fukking 400 for some 12s. Especially some wool fukking joints when summer is approaching

I wanna get the Retro 12 black taxi but I gotta bid.

Can somebody explain to me how these bidding systems work? :dahell:


Do you just go on there and offer the lowest amount you're willing to pay and then somebody outbid you and you're in a bidding war?

I haven't bid on something since eBay like 12 years ago. Is it like that or is it different?
