And the comic book version of a 6/10. Starting with a 4/10, price goes up pretty significantly per grade point - up 50% from grade 4 to grade 6. I realize this isn't the best example when it comes to

Another recent pair graded a 6/10. Almost the exact same issue as the #airmax180 - paint cracking on the midsole. pretty much any time you see almost any pair with paint chipping or midsole paint crac

A few more shots of that #nikeairmax180 #sample . Look at the top right pic - notice the nipples are all still present and show almost no wear, while the midsole pics (top left and bottom right) show

Recently came across and graded this pair of #sample #nikeairmax180 ... Nothing special about this pair other than the fact it's a sample. Insoles look virtually brand new, upper and soles looked pre

Time to grade...feels like I'm in a casino up in here. I kinda wish we had those RFID chips but these honeycomb holograms will do for now.

Yo are these real? Legit check? Seems like this might be an early version of the Don C Jordan Legacy 312 at that pricepoint 😂@buffaloexchange what are you doing with these prices? These are so so bad.

@crossroadstrading and @buffaloexchange are like my favorite places to shop. It's all about the 'thrill of the hunt' at these places and there are only a few things more thrilling than finding somethi

My next question was going to be "what would YOU pay for a Shoemetrics graded perfect 10/10 pair of concords, but @mustang_chris_50_hyka threw it out there already. He's looking for a perfect pair and

And some more flaws... What do you think these should be graded? Swipe to see what I see...

*SPOILER* Look at the height of the midsole on the medial. These types of inconsistencies drive me crazy!

What's the first thing I noticed while grading this pair of Air Max 1s? Swipe to see what I see... *SPOILER* Look at that massive glue runner coming right down the midsole. Gross!

Can anyone out there ID these Vince Carter BB4s? They don't have a #nikeid tag but that's not to say they can't be IDs. Size 12.5. It's a GR colorway (I had the same pair) so that's why I don't think

Same pair, same size, came in the same box. You’d think part size would correspond with shoe size...like wouldn’t the air unit and window be the exact same size depending on the size of the shoe? I du
