For the past year I’ve been collecting these pairs? As time went on I’ve slowly began to notice that they just don’t fit like they used to. I truly love these shoes. And slowly noticing day by day that my feet are growing too large for these, is really saddening. I don’t know if discussions of selling is allowed here. But what do you guys think about me selling them? I planned on doing it on Depop so there’s no/less insane grailed fees. Right now there’s no one selling these in 9.5s on depop. I mean these things are untouched man I’m pissed. Didn’t even get to dirty them up. But my feet decided to screw over my bank account. These jjjjound vans don’t go over $170, both notre vans are very price at over $200 in my size, and I want to get back most of what I paid, as these are mint condition, but still used so I have to haggle with people. And my blends pair is legitimately $453 on goat right now. The thing is these have 0 hype. Do you think these are accurately priced based on their resale and them being used

$170 on the blue notre, $230 on the green notres, $120 on the jjjound mids and $300 on the blends pair that goes for $450 resale rn?

Im a size 9.5 going to a 10

Im not even a reseller(who resells vans??), it was hard finding these for a decent price

I just want them to be well received you know, these are beautiful pairs but they hold no Nike or Yeezy hype

    I can’t tell you if the prices you’re asking are reasonable but I used to be in the Vans collecting game a bit a few years ago and I don’t think it’s worth trying to sell on those resale sites (even depop). There are definitely people out there who are Vans collectors and will want the pairs you have but you’re right, it’s definitely a much smaller community compared to the other “sneakerhead” brands. You gotta go where those collectors are instead of a generic resale site.

    If you want to sell them fast you have to sell below whatever the GOAT/Grailed/eBay prices are, there’s a reason pairs on those sites sit on there forever. There’s a Facebook group called “Strictly Waffles” I’ve been part of for years, people buy and sell “collector’s” Vans on there (Vault/collabs/etc.), it was far more active pre-pandemic but it’s still fairly active. You’ll likely have better luck there than trying to post on some resale site with a bunch of fees.
