StockX is superior to Flight Club, imo. They let you bid on shoes, rather than selling you marked up shyt. I've purchased kicks off StockX for much lower prices than Flight Club was selling them for. The tradeoff is that you might wait a week or two more for your shoe because StockX verifies the shoe before shipping it out.:francis:

Alot of these mfs are really herbs that couldn't dress or get hoes before they got pub n rap check. U see it within sports world too it's alot of lames dweebs who wouldn't get no action or play if they was regular mfs working 9-5s mfs better be grateful a Jew gave em an advance which they gotta payback now that show money dried up now til next fall it's bout be alot of rap nikkas finessing or getting finessed no sympathy for both parties.im glad I don't have prove nun to nobody no more these ig rappers etc are too gullible but try play like they street n hipped mfs that's been into sneaker culture no dam well u not supposed to spend extortion prices at flightclub stadium goods etc complex are sum vultures exploiting tf outta ppl vice too n fuk vladtv. My apologies for my rant but I'm bout fed up with all of this shyt this Rona shyt is like a blessing in disguise:yeshrug:

I saw this video the other day and was a little annoyed bcuz it’s deceptive...stockx doesn’t offer a flat fee for a sneaker...shoe size is very important and shouldn’t be ignored...prices on places like stockx...GOAT etc vary by size per shoe so you cannot accurately compare prices w/o knowing the individual’s shoe size

pj tucker looked heated :mjlol:

But, I think this is fake. These are all celebrities. All of them can easily afford this. By expressing sticker shock, they're making these kicks seem more valuable than they are.

Rona and the shutdown has exposed how phony this entertainment industry is. It is all smokes and mirrors. When the only thing that matters is food and paper towels, nobody gives a fukk about what brand you're wearing. :francis:

Big facts I've been sitting back observing mfs since last Feb because I had to be on my P's&Q's because the asw was gonna be in my city so i waa checking everybody's temperature from streets to Hollywood n this play they pulled with rona global shutdown proved my point even at asw mfs is phony af breh I done lost alot of respect for alot of ppl in Feb n now I've been just looking see who's really dumb trying act smart and I haven't been proved wrong yet. Mfs still worshipping celebs that are really broke n will rob their own fans if them checks stop getting cleared

And not to mention they throw bullshyt fees on top of the shyt. I got a bid for $185 on some shyt but the total is $215.

Na

just because you can afford it don’t mean you wanna spend it. I make a decent amount of change and I’m still pressed when I gotta spend 400-1k on something.


You gotta remember a lot of these people were not always rich, so it’s not like they out of touch.
