Air Jordan Shoes Stampede,No Thanks

I can't believe that many folks could afford those shoes. (One Hundred Eighty Bucks ) Times must be better than I thought

It looks like some of those folks were buying them for resale on E-bay. Those Retro Air-Jordans are selling $189.00 in the stores . But on E-bay, they re-selling at over $600.
That's a big mark up.

And NIKE supposedly made $1 Billion on them, in the last week.
Great for business.

Aint that sad, Christmas is as bad as drugs and alcohol.
It makes people do some really dumb things.
All that pushing and shoving for a little brat who will
appreciate their junk for one week tops.
People fighting over shoes because someones name is on it.
Reminds me of a 3rd world country where people fight over
a piece of bread, that I can understand.

Borrowed from another site, but worth repeating. I'll be glad the Micheal Jordan endorses a belt, so they'll start holding their pants up.

I'd bet a quarter we are paying for the shoes too.

There are an awful lot of assumptions going on in this thread.

Since when, do facts, or even truth matter, on the GC or Politics forums?

Anyone who can use the search feature on their computer can get facts.
We like to argue them, make fun of others facts, provide facts that contradict facts, and discuss them.
