oh really

so how come he lives in a shytty Apartment?

and NO they do not ALL increase in resale value

dont let the net fool you

dude has an addiction - he won't sell a quarter of what he owns and even if he did he would not recoup that 85K let alone make a profit
Breh as soon as they drop most jump up in price enough to make a decent flip. Of course not all. Basic colors stay in stores forever but the ones that don't which is a lot become resale bait same day they drop.

I live in MD the new Hypebeasts resale capital. I know what I'm talking about

if u had dude's shoe collection you would not make a profit selling them:wtb:

them shyts valued at 80k
you would not make more than 10k selling his entire collection

it's funny how you dont see anyone flipping shoes as their primary source of income

Tell that to the OG Chicago 10s :mjpls:

It's obvious you don't know what you talkin bout so don't respond to this.


i'm not saying they don't appreciate. i'm saying, unlike other collectibles, sneakers do not see a considerable appreciation of their value over the years.

:rudy: @ the people saying he coulda did this n that wit 85k..well,yeah, he could've saved that money over a period of 10+ years,but, im sure A LOT of people have spent that much money or more over a decade on items that wasn't a necessity & could've saved up also :manny:

so basically what im sayin is..

priorities nikka; but hey if he happy living the way he does, who are we to judge?

I'm fukked up for laughing about this, but what if his apartment caught fire while he was at work or something...

He has a lot of fukking shoes no doubt, but the math came out to something like 150•350=$52,500....

well i have about 12 untouched unworn DS and i guarantee i can get at least $2000 from them.

for example. I had 3 shoes that i bought and eventually sold. the combined retail was $850.

i sold them for a total of $1475. thats a profit of $625.

:comeon: No one on here has hobbies? Living some boring ass life. shyt there's people that collect stamps and all kinds of other dumb shyt. It's not like dude had 85k and said "lemme spend this on shoes" it took him years to get to that point. His living situation though :yeshrug: who knows maybe breh is working on something to get ahead, maybe he can do something with shoes.
