F the resellers!! They buy as many pairs as they possibly can as soon as shoes are put up for sale, which results in many people that wanted to wear and enjoy the shoes having no option but to pay resell prices if they don’t get lucky with raffles or shock drops. They aren’t doing anyone any favors. I’d rather buy reps than pay a reseller hundreds for a shoe.
And to your second statement, that's how the world works. When the gas prices went up because of the sanctions on Russia the oil companies raised the prices and took advantage of all of us. It goes back to that sang doesn't it, "don't hate the player hate the game"
@@user-gj3qo6os3w hey gee, im only interested in and referring to the culture of snkrs, which has consistently grown since the 80s. Reselling, in this form, is relatively new when compared to the culture of snkrs. Do you think before you type?
@Jordache Jordan I'm having a really hard time on trying to figure out the point you're trying to make here. You haven't said anything to contradict my statements
True, Jordan’s always been associated with black culture, now since the culture vultures are making all this money reselling off of it now it’s cool for them to wear it and showcase it smh.

Now the people who didn’t like the sneaker culture are getting into it now because these how big it is on social media 💯
@@jb33rd not only that, it’s very profitable nowadays. Lol everybody and they mama is suddenly a reseller now 🤦♂️and tbh it seems like it’s more culture vultures as resellers making the most money off of it
I'm a reseller and I agree even with reps. I personally don't like wearing them but if you wear them I don't care. There's people like me and people like you I'm not a hater
Sadly that’s never gonna happen as long as capitalism is around, at this point sneakers are seen as assets like a stock that could be worth money and even more money than the amount paid for said sneaker.
I bought my son a pair. He has all three versions of the Space Jams J1, J11 and J31. He loves them and wears them to school. He has 14 pairs of various Jordans. Most of his shoes still look new. My daughter collects Jordan 11’s and has several unworn pairs. Her basketball team was sponsored by Nike so she always received a discount on their merchandise.
Another thing people forget to mention is these fees on these resell sites like ebay! They charge $20-$50 in fees and shipping is a good $15 and that makes the taxes more. So its a good $50-$75 extra in fees etc. only adds to the bs.
People are claiming "Resellers"... Chad says "Buy what you like..." dude most of the sneaker people ALL buy the same shoes and when they are over them or want to cop a different kick... they all sell at the same time. I wish more sneaker purchasers were self aware. Again many of the people aren't active resellers... they sell their shoes once the flavor of the week is stale. Me??? I cop to keep em for good, and rotate them in my wardrobe.
I would love to be interviewed an give my opinion from a consumers point resellers are bad for the culture they hold 90 present of sneaker releases hostage by charging hundreds and thousands dollars
I personally don't like the quality on fakes. You may claim that some fakes have good quality but the real pairs always have better quality in the materials
I feel like the resale market is kind of correcting itself. The prices were so high and inflated during the pandemic when footlocker, finishline, etc. weren’t open to the public so the resellers were the only place to get these shoes
Let's not forget the taboo letters UA or what I call dupes. A lot of people going overseas to get a pair of shoes that are undetectable on feet for retail cost. You actually think the shoe tubers with early access are showing legit pairs? NOT!
Droped a stack this year on the Jordan's my mother couldn't afford as a child. The Jordan 1 came out my first grade year. I didn't like them. It was the Jordan 3 an 4 that I wanted in 3rd an 4th grade. Now I GOT EM' 😉
I just picked up the white cements. They are nice. I have five different versions of the Jordan 3’s. They are my second favorite after the Jordan 11’s.
This is why I buy reps and if resellers have a problem it doesn’t affect me. If I like a shoe I’ll buy the rep because paying hundreds for 40 dollars of labor and material is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever heard 🤣🤣
It's one thing if you skip the release of a shoe and then months later you're regretting not getting it so you now have to pay resell but what's really messed up is if you're literally on the website typing in your information just to see you didn't get the shoe and now the shoes like 2x the price despite being officially released 5 minutes ago. I hope all these resellers buy all these shoes just to have them NOT sell and are forced to sell under retail. I understand we live in a capitalist country and everything has a price but making profit out of everything is what's killing us as a society because we're all guilted into even your hobby has to be making money, so you have these dudes hurting a whole community of people all to make a quick buck. If you hit on a shoe and realized you don't want it later that's cool but don't buy 5 pairs and instantly put them up for sale for 2x the price when there was a guy who really wanted the shoe but they didn't buy bots and rig the system to make sure they were first in line
I understand this interview is not for the culture but for moms and dads who are not apart of it. BUT the guys name is Jeff Staple, not Jeff Pigeon. his brand STAPLE has a Pigeon logo and the shoe was the PIGEON DUNK from 2007. Also no offense to the host but Jordan Mids are NOT the same as Jordan 1 Highs
Imagine buying a piece of accesory on your body that wears out the fastest then never wear, the irony in that. Kids if someone judges you by your shoes in your group, he aint the kinda person you should be knowing. Instead of valuing what is in your head.
Everything is so hyped now a days. What ever is hot people go for it. I remember getting infrareds 6s for retail in 2019 at footlocker . Too this day not ever selling knowing the price there value at will never forget that day 💔💔😍
If you have good taste …you can find 30 dll sneaker that look like 500dll that’s the real art of the sneaker game …..people are waking up to the real price of shoes 👟
If I don’t score the shoes from the actual website or store….I DO NOT PURCHASE from a third party (Goat, StockX, etc). Some of those third party shoes have been fake as well.
Resellers are exactly thinking about how much profit they can make off the average person. To say it's not about value is just a straight out lie. If shoes didn't have value there wouldn't be Resellers 🤷🏾♂
Sneakers are basically like baseball cards; only so many are coveted, and only so many of those are rare or hard to find. It doesn’t help when resellers are using bots, or having shoes “back doored”, in mass quantities and flipping them for profit. Sneaker heads want nothing to do with helping resellers profit anymore.
You are so right!! Not sure why I started to be on SNKR App to buy new releases from 2019 to 2021 and cumulated 300+ pairs of Jordans. I also bought $40k worth of Ohtani cards in 2018. Combine value of $100k. Thank god i didn’t put those money in the stock market. Jordan 4 Metallic purple is my holy grail, Jordan 4 bred, fire red, PSG,
they're straight businessmen, they dont care about "sneaker culture". It's all about making money, and it's ridiculous how people crazy resell prices .
@@peewee3030 I wouldn't feel dumb at all. I love looking at shoes. Lmao!! And you claimed over or 8 years old. It's cool to see other people like me who can't stop buying shoes
Resellers drive up demand for the shoe that’s the only good thing about it … If everybody could get every Jordan every-time a new pair dropped people would get sick of the shoe game real fast .. that’s my opinion though
Hmm possibility? Is never a data that you can put in a balance sheet.. 🤥 all the sellers who have to promote their commission tell you the same thing possibility, possibility, possibility .. Easy to convince the kids their parents pay so much.
The sneaker industry is fine. The crooks who steal our shoes and try to sell them to us for thousand is dying. Thank god. I hope they all go out of business. Stop buying reseller prices. Buy reps until these guys have to get real jobs.
Hahahah yes hopefully the reseller market folds. The prices they charge and drive the market prices threw the roof every single release is bought up and geld hostage and made to pay 100 to 500 above retail just to be able to enjoy the new general release Shoe its insanity and feels criminal
@dizzle1119 yeah its not going anywhere but the prices have been more then crazy then 2010ish day one releases on every single shoe. Sneaker prices have been super inflated more and more ppl are buying less right now and it's cuz usually capitalism works great as well with supply and demand it usually drives prices down to compete but resellers are copin retail and turning around and boosting prices 100% on regular sneaker. No ones dropping prices to compete cuz they all want the max. Normal everyday ppl are seeing this the very small percent of ppl buying 500 dollar and up shoes consistently aren't gonna keep every reseller happy no one wants to pay prices like that and it's already being proven these prices aren't sustainable. Ripping ppl ppl off then reselling high is a crazy business strategy. I get it the grails ill pay and most ppl who love the shoe or want it will pay the high mark up cuz there super limited or PE or a shoe from the 2000s but on every single shoe release they buy out and then turn around to resell the shoe for double that's not gonna last. I've been knowing shoes and seeing the community and everytime things get like this everyone losses someone has to give and more often then not it's the reseller who has to take the "L" and drop there shoe to a reasonable price or maybe skip buying 50 to 100 of every shoe to resell. The small resellers are gonna drop like Flys and th big guys that been in for many years can eat the hit and drop a bit and survive. I'm not talking about the market for used new or limited shoes dying out im talking about all the hype heads invading the shoe community and taking advantage and screwing over our fellow collectors or shoe enthusiasts.
@@Mosesybanez Bro, I'm not having a difficult time w/ every release. In fact, I am often getting the shoes I want for less than MSRP currently.

That female news anchor is fiiiiiiiiiinnnnee
Stop reselling. It’s trash and predatory
97 Nike uptempo are way over priced not paying 200 for those
Before resellers sneakers was dope
They have to go back to having a job so sad
They better start by redefining those prices
Reps are the reasons.
Hype kills
What shoe is the bald anchor wearing? I want em
Faqs wasting their money.
Why buy worn shoes just buy new ones
crazy people
@@punapeter yup also if they buy new ones and hold it to sell for more ok but most times they find no buyers then it ages ..I once bought Jordan's off a dude and turned out being ten years old.the sole fell apart due to aging the clue on the shoes wear out ..
@@certifiedquality6381 I don't waste money on dumb purchases. $25. tennis shoes for hundreds is for suckers. I ONCE bought a pair of red leather tennies shoes, Fila. For $10. at Ross. because they were the only ones, and happened to be my size. Only shoes I spent more than $100. on were probably cowboy boots. And I don't even wear them anymore. $30. slip-on loafers from Walmart are what I buy for work shoes.
@@punapeter yup I bought fila and Ross in the 1980s 90s ..I might switch to Nike for better running shoes instead of wasting hundreds on Jordan's that most times its quality don't last .
@@certifiedquality6381 nike intentionally makes their sneakers start falling apart after the 10 year mark especially when not worn and midsole not stitched. You should have knew what you was buying tbh.
Resell no good. Sneakers are 100 dollars, not 200000! Stupid and dumb!
Total B.S! Everyone needs to stop buying resales, then they'll go away just like anything else!
Great interview!
Jeff Pigeon??? WTF. Lmao
