Some time ago I was introduced to StockX.com by a fellow sneaker geek. Previous to this, I bought most of my shoes (usually Air Jordans) from Foot Locker, Eastbay, or even Flight Club. Recently I was looking for a specific pair of retro Jordans that I was having trouble finding in my size, but was able to locate them on them on StockX.
For those who buy and sell financial assets, they will appreciate how this online market place works. Just like with the stock market, buyers place bids and sellers place asks. When you get a match or an agreed upon price, a trade happens automatically and a trade is made between buyer and seller. The buyers and sellers are anonymous, and there is real time market data and even Indexes showing price trends in specific brands of sneakers. Perhaps most importantly, every pair is checked for authenticity so you never have to worry about getting a knock off.
StockX has sneakers, streetwear, handbags and watches. Between the sneakers and watches I’m in heaven. I bought my first pair of Retro Jordans recently and they were delivered yesterday. Brand new, authentic, checked for authenticity, and flawless. It takes about 10 business days from the time of purchase to receive your item as StockX takes care to verify you are getting an authentic pair. The whole process was quick and easy and I will be doing business with them again.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for shoes or watches!
Ain’t they pretty?
