CLASSIFIED KICKS

For the past few years Sacramento Craigslist has been the "life line" for local sneakerheads like us at NIB. Unlike eBAY auctions, it allows buyers and sellers a more personal approach to doing business. Advertisment is free, and you can include a contact number. However, the challenges often outweigh the benefits. Besides the fear of B-grades and variants, many locals advertise DS that are actually VNDS. Some will ignore offers or refuse to include a picture. And that's just the buyer's point of view. As a reseller, many responses include low-ball prices. And let's not forget the "sketchy" meet up spots! Bringing a buddy is great, but if someone's going to rob you-they're going to rob you. Thank you Sac CL, but it's time for a consignment store in SacTown.
