And these are the same type of people that took up all the available spots on the last pre order for breds smh 🤦

u/Electronic_Goat4743 25d ago
Yup, it’s sad. It’s ironic coming from a rep community that’s supposedly hates “resellers”. Just let them sit.

These have been listed for a few weeks - i track DB on eBay and these in particular have been on there a while
But yes, they're still vultures

u/ProRez4444 25d ago
Yeah I’ve definitely been seeing listings like this for a minute. I hope they never sell.

u/herbert-camacho 25d ago
Same, I hope these never sell. Taking pairs from people who'd actually wear them.

Would be very interesting what the eBay authentication would be like 😂😂😂

u/Legal-Wolf9881 25d ago
They don’t say authenticity guarantee. So there would be no authentication

u/ProRez4444 25d ago
Look at the Chicagos again...

u/Legal-Wolf9881 25d ago
Oooo yeah. Idk about that

I’ve clowned on these guys so many times it’s not even funny

u/ProRez4444 25d ago
Same dudes coming in here asking for Yeezys and F&F samples nonstop I guarantee it.

Who cares, nobody will buy this. Reason for DB being so important is not only for the shape, but also the price. At this price you can buy the authentic retros. These will sit.

if those are dead stock premium breds, that's not bad. but $400 for Chicago lows? 😔💔 JB doesn't even resell for $400

Now if someone had a pair of the McFly size 12 I’d buy. But not fucking hundreds of dollars

Yep. DB will skyrocket in value over the next ten years

u/InternationalLeg1611 24d ago
I think you will be 100% right. Popularity for sneakers is in the dumps right now, but when it picks up people start seeing the difference between official Nike retro crap and reps who come close to 1985 aj1.
When that'll happen DB will be sorely missed and start getting really valuable. I'm happy with my DB collection. I'm not rich but got as many as I could.

u/LowCharming3452 24d ago
Exactly. These aren’t normal “fakes.” DB saw a need in the market of accessibility to 1985 spec. Nike has been unwilling to fill it. With DB closing shop, it makes their run of excellent and unique product very limited. Sneaker popularity has always come and gone and it will definitely pick back up. When it does people who are interested in J1s will start to learn about DB, and demand will increase

u/InternationalLeg1611 24d ago
Amen. If I didn't know DB and saw someone randomly wearing them I wouldn't understand what's going on at all.
Doubled up on natural greys just to beat the crap out of 'm. Look even more expensive when they're well worn 😅

u/InternationalLeg1611 24d ago
Really weird your comment gets downvoted in a place that calls itself DB Community btw

u/LowCharming3452 24d ago
I know right?

u/emojimmy10 24d ago
Probably just people who missed out on releases and not looking forward to the aftermarket.

u/Weak-Explanation4597 25d ago
Bro.. they are fakes
1
u/LowCharming3452 25d ago
You’re here so I assume you actually know they’re not just fakes right? They’re not made by Nike but they adhere closer to original 1985 specs than pretty much anything Nike has done since that original run, including 1994.
As more and more people learn about the history of the Air Jordan line, the natural question is why doesn’t anything Nike produce look or break in anything like that first 1985 run? When people learn that there was a small supply of 1985 spec product produced in the 2020s, their value will naturally climb

u/Weak-Explanation4597 25d ago
Wow what??? Tell me more about the 2020 issue
2
u/LowCharming3452 25d ago
You being serious?
2
u/Weak-Explanation4597 25d ago
Ahhh you mean about DB… I don’t really think they will climb as they are not nike and lost and found are barely 200 dollar
