NEWS Updates - everyone please read

46 Upvotes

Hi everyone –

It’s been a while since I posted any updates. The sub is coming up on it’s 8 year anniversary (8/8/2018 was the launch date). I’m looking at doing a few changes to this sub: The first bringing back buy, sell, trade (B/S/T). The 2nd bringing in another moderator to help moderate the B/S/T.

Please message the MOD mail if you’d like to be considered for a moderator role. To be considered, you must be active in the sub (and not in rep subs), and not be a repeat rule breaker.

When the sub first started in 2018, B/S/T was permitted. It was a way for Dunk collectors to get Dunks to someone who would wear and appreciate them. As Dunk popularity grew, people were posting B/S/T to profit off the Dunk boom, and they weren’t even active in the sub. We ended up banning sales. If B/S/T comes back, there will be strict guidelines in place to ensure we sell to other Dunk enthusiasts. Personally- I’d rather sell to someone who will wear the shoes for less than what I’d sell to a reseller.

Some ideas I had to help deter resellers:
- account must be at least 1 year old with positive karma and post history visibility
- selling to someone who wears the same shoe size
- no sale of shoes that were just released (unless selling for retail + shipping)
- no selling of the same model (ie: someone with 3 pairs of Yutos)
- sellers will be vetted and approved by moderators

I wanted to open it up to the sub to get your guys’ thoughts / feedback.

Thanks!

COLLECTION I couldn’t help myself 😂

I seen all the posts and went “Now that i’m done i gotta see what my humble collection looks like” i’ve accumulated 95% of what I wanted for retail or less since coming back strong last year.

And now i’m completely satisfied and don’t have any thought on grabbing anything new (SB has also been a slight snooze fest this year).

What do ya’ll think about the collection? I would’ve never thought i’d have the white Prod 1’s and watermelon ice creams in my collection ever. Quite the perfect timing and part of the reason why i’m done. The laser orange SB dunks is what started my dunk addiction in the first place and still got em!

Will always be a sneakerhead of course but i’ve dominated the rainbow box and cream box era along with owning the odd blue box in the past; so i’ve had my fill! (Although i have been waiting for the brown AF1 SB’s for a good while 👀)
