hopefully not they wanna hoard shoes and fuck the consumer so they can't get kicks its karma fucking them in the ass no lube. shoe game is a joke now its all about making money screwing the consumer people don't buy kicks for the love of the shoe they buy kicks for what they can make in money
My thoughts exactly, resellers make it shitty for everyone. I wish there was an app that lets people swap shoes with no cash involved. We are overpaying at retail let alone resale. Idk I’m the type of buyer that wears my shoes all of them, otherwise what’s the point if you spend all that money but you don’t enjoy that you bought?
Honestly people preordering in bulk to resell at double or triple the price deserve it. Only people I feel bad for those who bought 1/2 pairs to wear for themselves.
Everything in investment is a risk, why would you say Bulk buyer deserve it? Did they do anything wrong to you? I believe most buyers went through a lot before they build up the capital to buy in bulk. Is hard earn money.
Amen. The sneaker industry is complete garbage at the moment, and both resellers and these corporations who do nothing about resellers by choice so their shoes will sell out are to blame. That's not even to mention the hypebeasts and culture vultures who have been slowly making this hobby corny for years
@@NachoAverageFinds Sure being scammed out of money is messed up and isn't right at all, but we can't just forget that a lot of resellers who get their stuff in bulk don't give a damn about the pockets of the people they tax, or about the average consumers who they take opportunities to purchase for prices they can afford away from. For a lot of these guys their livelihoods come through consciously trying to disrupt the market for average consumers with the sole intent of making money off the backs of a clientele with more money to spend on sneakers or desperate buyers (or both) which is also messed up. I definitely don't care about hustlers getting scammed. I care about people who just wanted to get some shoes getting scammed
People hate resellers because they hoard already scarce shoes, sit on them until the price inflates, then sell to the bourgeoisie. If they were flipping shoes to someone abroad who couldn't get them and short-term, i'd say fair enough. The problem is your average consumer can only get GS now - other than winning a raffle - and in both cases that's if they're lucky to varying degrees. People with little to no love for the game are making profits while actual sneakerheads get scammed on a pair of reps or just go without. The hype bubble is about to burst anyway. It's become way too over-inflated with the number of releases and retail prices going up and up. An increasingly small number of people will remain interested the rest will order reps or get basic sneakers from non hype brands. Anyway that's my opinion, some of these resellers got greedy and are learning it's not supposed to be a get rich quick scheme. They got finessed the same way their customer's do.
I had purchased 10 pairs, all personals. My decision to do so was influenced by paying 350 per sneaker, never being able to buy at from a legitimate retail outlet and seeing a growing amount of people getting fakes from so called authenticated sources. So now I’m out 1.7k.
I think the amount of orders he had to fulfill just grew so much his business module couldn’t support it anymore. When I first started using zadeh , all my shoes were coming 2 weeks after release date, the more hyped shoes were like 4 weeks . Overtime that delivery time got longer and longer.
@@NachoAverageFinds I have been ordering the holiday 11 from him since 2014 (legend blue) and have no isues!! I seen the writing on the wall and stopped ordering over 8 months ago!! I'm small potatoes compared to some of these people Ivhave less than 1,000 in orders owed!! Me or anyone I know hasn't ever received any thing with stock x tags but I have heard rumors of stock x, ebay so I believe anything at this point I hope everyone can get there money back!! Once the resellers found out about zadeh that's when things got so bad and out of control!! Also the fire was suspicious as hell also back in 2016 I believe there is alot of info people are not discussing and I'm wondering why
Sad most of us sneaker heads can be gullible if you don't know how most of this shit works .I only had a pair stolen from in front of my house and I was mad ass hell I could only imagine Big Big money.
Crazy. I remember seeing those walk through vids with all those releases stacked up. If this was happening with the legit shoes imagine the fake market and those new "UA" shoes.
As someone who's into reps, I can promise you there's no such thing as UA. It's a term replica makers came up with so people would feel less guilty wearing reps. Shoes are either legit or they aren't. There has only been one example which one could call UA, being the revenge storms. Those were backdoored in factories in china in large numbers, being sold behind the brand's back. One could argue those were UA, but to be fair, they're just legit pairs the company didn't know existed.
@@bazzz1396 same thing happens with Jordan’s and Nikes. When Nike contracts a factory to make a product, the factory makes extra and back doors them. Nike can’t realistically monitor a factories output because the same factories that’s contracted to manufacture shoes also manufactures thousands of other products from hundreds of other companies. It’s a self sustaining system
@@r.porter1300 that really doesn't happen, that kinda stuff is really well controlled. It happened with revenge storm because it was a much smaller company overlooked by a literal rapper. It happens with materials, some rep factories buy leftover material from official factories, but there's not a big amount of shoes that are backdoored. There's always the early pairs that get out of the warehouses early, but "UA" really isn't a thing in practice. A shoe is legit or it isn't.
it’s crazy this happened, i was in a cool group where the main feature was bulk group buys from Zadeh. Just one example, we got the jordan 12 twists for $160 but minimum buy in was 4k. What’s crazy is that some people actually got their pairs.
I am a sneaker head, I collect sneakers because I love em. I pull my sneakers out and just look , feel and adore them. When I can’t get a Jordan at a decent price when they drop because they all have been bought up by re sellers…….. do I need to continue and explain if I give a damn about re sellers….?.
wow. i'm kinda sad this happened, this is where i pre ordered all my personal pairs like my BC3s, BC4s, FR4s, Concord 11s, and Bred11s back in the day. i thought they were great, took a risk though when i made my preorders because even when the specific sneaker i wanted was still a rumor or still a year before release date i would go on ahead and preorder because they would give it in such a good price, and my pair would always come through eventually.
A lot of people were buying personal pairs. Some people were buying personal pairs and extra pairs to make up the cost of their personal pair. Others were bulk buying to resell at profit; but the fact is that it was actually good for average consumers. Why? Bots and proxies are used to get sneakers from releases, the costs involved are what drive prices up as the botters are the ones controlling most stock. Zadeh selling at below retail for bulk buys allowed resellers to sell at lower premiums to average consumers because they didn't have to make up for bot and proxy expenses. The effect this has on the resell market is yet to be seen, but the volume he was doing was in the hundreds of millions of dollars; the likelihood is that botters will now be in charge of this stock, and prices will go up to counteract expenses.
Reminds me of some ebay sellers. They take your money. Ship after 30 days, wait two weeks, message you to say sorry the shoes have been returned to sender can you confirm your postal address, ebay money back guarantee has finished and then the seller just ghosts all your messages
You know, as a scollector of shoes and other media. We have to keep in mind that their is always someone trying to exploit our interest because of our disposable income. Sucks but that's the reality of it. Unfortunately, as long as the market exists this will continue. Of course I'm talking from my point of view. As a collector. I really can't empathize with resellers. Copping kicks is cheapened by bots and people ( or any other media)
Do a brief history on Avia! There is pretty much nothing on RUclips regarding the brand. They just did a retro of the Avia 830 recently if you want to get your hands on a pair, only like 80 bucks
I feel bad for those who were just trying to buy a few sneakers for personal use. As for resellers, I quite honestly can't bring myself to have sympathy for them.
True bro. Lately they basically using bots to scam all the pairs and only making about 25-30$ off most pairs after tax and fees stock x ir ebay charges. But it costs us, those that actually want the shoe over a $100 extra!! What’s the point dip shits? $30 ur putting up $200 and waiting a month to get ur money back and dealing with shipping and listings? Lmao. Get a job yall. I can see some pairs but every damn Jordan or air max. Foh already.

I'm glad I didn't order anymore yellow toes after the first pair i brought . I got 3 pairs of cool grey 11s and got all three pairs last month. I just need the money back from the yellow toes but if I don't get that money back I can't complain most lost way more than me
I could belive that in the beginning he probably was legit from bots and cook groups but I'm sure eventually he was mixing in fakes to fulfill orders once it became popular. Wendy Lee does bulk orders as well. Lol. Wouldn't be a surprised if his orders were getting caught by customs becauseof the frequency and the amount. Considering his business model and price point the only way he was making that much money is to buy fakes. If he bulk ordered fakes he was getting a huge profit. With retail prices being $200+ how can he give a $50-60 discount off top and still make money? That should have been a red flag for anyone looking to get involved. The second red flag was the amount of time it took people to get their shipment. If your sneakers came 4 weeks plus after released you have to wonder how if they are sold out? The only place you can get that many sneakers made in the necessary sizing for each buyer is on the fake market. I feel bad that honest people lost their money trying to get in the game but that's where it stops. Their greed erases any compassion after that. If you were getting the sneakers at a discount I'm sure you were never going to sell it for retail or a little over to be fair to the community. You was going to price gouge and get quadruple the price so be honest about your intentions. The resellers are no different then drug dealers. So if you take a chance with a plug understand it's a chance the plug can run off. You can't cry about it. What are you going to do call the police? If it was fake goods now you are in trouble for buying and potentially selling fake goods purchased via PayPal where you probably paid as a friends and family. So the money is gone. Too bad so sad 🙃
Reselling is just another form of legalized gambling. Place your bets, hope that you hit on grails and collect a nice ROI. The more successful you are, the riskier you’re willing to be. At some point the bubble bursts, and if you’re unlucky you end up holding the bag. Until you’re a market maker or reset your risk threshold, expect to take some Ls.
Funny fact is when everyone was receiving their shoes at incredible good prices for resale these resellers didn't complain at all 🤔. Now that everyone got a kick in the ass everyone is crying. Justice serve to those vultures who always put money first zadehkicks only used your desire to copy cat him. Everyone single person who lost a lot of money are resellers 🤦😆
I'm just a regular dude that wanted a pair that i prolly couldn't get easily. That's why i used zadeh, but there is definitely an issue when he never fufills orders and you get banned for opening your mouth.
@@thomascalderon598 I got banned also because I requested a refund however I told him that I wasn't going to pay for any refund fees and his policies where illegal under PayPal policies and honestly he did not argued much and refunded everything and I never dealt with him again.
@@DownUnder43 see, at least you knew about paypal's policy and zadeh's contradict each other. Some of us didn't bother to think about it, which is our fault. i'm glad for you that you got out before this happened. i can only imagine how bad it is for other people like me who just wanted a pair for themselves. it got so bad that the FEDS shut down the website and the oregon state government is involved. So whatever he did, got him in a really bad spot.
When I was a little boy my daddy told me a story about a fool and his money and something about them scene party or soon part it I don't remember which
Are the resellers who were getting supplied by Zadeh making crazy money going to get there money back ?Or are they going to lose there money? Being resellers
I preordered the cool grey 11s patent bred 1s and thunder red 4s for personals and I got them all but they also sent me a 2nd pair of cool grey 11s by mistake it was a size 11 still got it sitting there lol now I’m very concerned if they’re even real
The bigger the scalper the bigger the loss, all in all Zadeh did something good for the sneakers community. I'm sorry for the people who bought shoes for their own use.
It’s kinda hard to feel bad for people that gamble with their money like this. At the end of the day, to trust someone promising a service who isn’t verified to be working with a company that can ensure product is a huge red flag. Buying a pair off someone yeah theirs risk involved bc you don’t know what your gonna get but you can rest easy knowing the website usually has your back, but something like this?? I mean it seems like the writing is on the wall that it is way to good to be true
So you're saying you feel bad for resellers, who practically cheat to obtain the sneakers so the rest of us have to pay higher prices. There is no honor among thieves. Zeheh and his customers are all thieves.
If I ever wanted a pair of shoes sold at inflated prices, I just get myself some good quality replicas. My rotation's a mix of retails and reps for a while now and I'm satisfied.
Love this channel and all the authentic love it brings to the shoes we grew up with and love. But I never want to watch anything from that Jake guy, buying 13 Cool Greys is just ridiculous 🙄. Resellers get zero sympathy.
Resell and hypebeasts have ruined the sneaker culture. It's not about having dope kicks anymore. I still like sneakers, but I see it as plain as day.
💯
You might be right
Are the resellers getting there money back ? Who were reselling under Zadeh kicks
Big time - they have rotted the sneaker Scene.
hopefully not they wanna hoard shoes and fuck the consumer so they can't get kicks its karma fucking them in the ass no lube. shoe game is a joke now its all about making money screwing the consumer people don't buy kicks for the love of the shoe they buy kicks for what they can make in money
To be honest I don't feel bad for the resellers at all. I feel bad for those customers who purchased for their own personal collection/use.
Both are terrible situations

Justice serve to those vultures who always put money first zadehkicks only used your desire to copy cat him. Everyone single person who lost a lot of money are resellers 🤦😆
I'm just a regular dude that wanted a pair that i prolly couldn't get easily. That's why i used zadeh, but there is definitely an issue when he never fufills orders and you get banned for opening your mouth.
Not 100% of people were resellers
150 is still a bit for shoes tho. at least for people that use them for themselves
@@thomascalderon598 I got banned also because I requested a refund however I told him that I wasn't going to pay for any refund fees and his policies where illegal under PayPal policies and honestly he did not argued much and refunded everything and I never dealt with him again.
@@DownUnder43 see, at least you knew about paypal's policy and zadeh's contradict each other. Some of us didn't bother to think about it, which is our fault. i'm glad for you that you got out before this happened. i can only imagine how bad it is for other people like me who just wanted a pair for themselves. it got so bad that the FEDS shut down the website and the oregon state government is involved. So whatever he did, got him in a really bad spot.
When I was a little boy my daddy told me a story about a fool and his money and something about them scene party or soon part it I don't remember which
😮...Oh geesh...😬
Interesting how no one has live videos from him or actually his face photos 🤔
I bought two cus I really wanted them and now I’ve filed a claim with PayPal so we’ll see what happens.
As long it wasn’t past that 180 day window you should be good!
@@NachoAverageFinds yeah it was in April
If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
Ponzi clip u found is gold 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Dude you’re video is way better! I watched it right after I uploaded this
@@NachoAverageFinds ahhh thank you sir 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I don’t feel bad for greedy ass resellers!
2 uploads in a month !!!!! lets GOOOOOOOOO
Lmao haha dude I wish it was more! I made this video in one entire day.
Are the resellers who were getting supplied by Zadeh making crazy money going to get there money back ?Or are they going to lose there money? Being resellers
I preordered the cool grey 11s patent bred 1s and thunder red 4s for personals and I got them all but they also sent me a 2nd pair of cool grey 11s by mistake it was a size 11 still got it sitting there lol now I’m very concerned if they’re even real
If you get scammed for pair of shoes, don't know what to say 🤣🤣💀
Lmao
Wish I could feel sorry for a reseller!
I have no sympathy for resellers they’re the reason people are charging $1k for a pair of 1s I’m glad they got scammed
The bigger the scalper the bigger the loss, all in all Zadeh did something good for the sneakers community. I'm sorry for the people who bought shoes for their own use.
I'm just waiting for the Netflix Documentary to come out and detailed this Ponzi scheme and the Sneaker game in general. It's hot for the taken!
Bro said condolences, people got scammed they didn't die...
Discord link expired
I just checked and it looks like they’re not allowing more people on the group. Sorry about that!
It’s kinda hard to feel bad for people that gamble with their money like this. At the end of the day, to trust someone promising a service who isn’t verified to be working with a company that can ensure product is a huge red flag. Buying a pair off someone yeah theirs risk involved bc you don’t know what your gonna get but you can rest easy knowing the website usually has your back, but something like this?? I mean it seems like the writing is on the wall that it is way to good to be true
Never heard of this business but this terrible
Shady business
👀🧠 crazy times we live in
Indeed big Rob
So you're saying you feel bad for resellers, who practically cheat to obtain the sneakers so the rest of us have to pay higher prices. There is no honor among thieves. Zeheh and his customers are all thieves.
If it seems too good to be true…….
Lol
Honestly they get scammed because they are being greedy ..
better make sure those 13 greys he's got were not reps xD
If I ever wanted a pair of shoes sold at inflated prices, I just get myself some good quality replicas. My rotation's a mix of retails and reps for a while now and I'm satisfied.
when it sounds too good to be true......... also r.i.p. ray liotta aka henry hill aka tommy vercetti you will be missed
More than likely those were UA…just saying. No way he had that many shoes to sell/ship
That’s what some people are speculating
'Cause - Greed ... I have no sympathy.
Brian is just a leva in disguise
Thanks LevaLokz! See you at work!
Where where is Coffeezilla haha
Nah f you resellers lmao SO happy
Poachers getting scammed is just karma doing it’s thing
Damn I hope he pay for he did to the consumers
This guy got me for 10 BIllion dollars.... Dam
Haha
I'm glad the resellers got "GOT"...I DON'T FEEL BAD FOR THEM AT ALL 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾
Rescalpers got rekt, stop funding their lazy scams and buy reps. Teach the market a lesson - I hope it burns.
To all the resellers and scalpers that got scammed....HA HA HA
I’m more focused on the green jar. You a weed head?
Lmao nah it’s mentholatum
I don’t feel bad one bit. Resellers suck. Go get a real job. I get VA disability and I bust my ass every single day.
To those who bulk bought to resell and lost money 😂🤣😂🤣😂 that’s hilarious! How does it feel?
150 for cool Grey 11s
If that don't smell sus then your fool
Honestly it seems you are doing all the work man, change the channel to Bryan Average Finds lol
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck resellers
Talk about an L
Hahaha
I love wearing sandals and cheap shoes. Glad I'm not in the sneaker game.
Love this channel and all the authentic love it brings to the shoes we grew up with and love. But I never want to watch anything from that Jake guy, buying 13 Cool Greys is just ridiculous 🙄. Resellers get zero sympathy.
Meh don’t care for resellers getting got tbh 🤷🏽♂️ they do it all the time to desperate foos
Still a wild story
He also owns eugreen. Dispensary. Dirtbag. Eugreen notill farms
