I've read the rules and I believe this thread does not violate them.
We all obviously know the JB sneaker game but what about the shoe boxes? I know for me the shoe box is just as equally important as the sneakers. A dent, scratch, hole or any type of deformity annoys the heck out of me. When I shop at the outlets you'll see me not only looking if the shoes have been tried on or worn but also paying close attention to the condition of the box. I always try to get a pair that hasn't been tried on (if the laces haven't been undone, more then likely it hasn't been tried on) and a "perfect" shoe box. I worked at the Nike Outlet here in Las Vegas and working in the back more than 80% maybe more of all the shoe boxes came in perfect. So, my point being is when I shop at Niketown every damn Jordan I buy comes with a imperfect box which i don't understand why. Its like they sat on it or tossed it around for fun. All I'm saying is if I'm dropping $175 on YOTR 2011's, my box shouldn't have a huge indent across the top of the box. That's why I always try and order online just because more than likely the shoe box will come in perfect.
How important is the JB box to you? Does the condition matter? Do you think twice before buying a pair of Jays if the og box is missing or been replaced with a different one? Or do you not care at all about the shoe box?
Post pics if you have any f'd boxes that pisses you off.

Also, when the III's released this year with the og themed box, you know that built more hype for the III's. Don't deny it!

I'm glad I don't have your OCD. The box is well a box to me, if it's messed up then that's unfortunate but it doesn't bother me
Hahaha.. I wouldn't want you to go through the process I go through. Nor anyone else

I gotta have my box, I will not buy shoes from a seller if O.G. box is not included. A few dents in my boxes doesn't really bother me as long as they aren't falling apart. To me the shoes are not as valuable if they don't come with O.G. everything.

Idgaf I only care about the shoes I could care less if it has of box or not
I'm wearing the shoes not what it comes with
But I know serious ass collectors want every little thing that the shoe originally came with

exactly how i feel. hate when people b*tch and complain over a missing retro card or box. :smh:
Not that important. Having the original box is a bonus, but as far as I'm concerned, I just want a box to keep the shoe in.
