There's another pair of the 2.3 glows on the auction site and the shipping is 300 with 5 bids up to $40 while kimguroos haven't sold for a total of $339. Somebodys gonna be mad when they find out the true shipping cost!

That's too bad. There doesn't seem to be any shortage of Glow Ballistecs on the Bay, pairs have gone for as low as $200, but of course you always get the chancers who try to shift pairs for $400+ too. Seems like there were a lot more than 200 pairs, like some sellers are saying.

I have reported one of those 3 times for excessive shipping and handling to eB@y, someone who is selling a pair for $50 with shipping of $352.73. Supposedly eb@y is "cracking down" on this, but the item is still listed. eB@y is going to sh*t, in my opinion. I have tried calling them with issues and all you get is put on hold forEVER (seriously, I have held for up to 50 minutes, hearing recordings say "your call is very important to us, someone will be with you in a moment" and never get a live person. eB@y SUCKS!!

I think at least 3000 pairs. maybe 5000 max.
anyway we don't see many glow in dark shoes ^__^

It amazes me that there are people like the guy with a starting bid price of $459.99. I just don't get it. Can't he understand that he's just not going to sell for that price? It makes no sense.
 
I listed mine at a start of $199.99 with $10 shipping. I believe in fairness, so I think anything crazy like $459 is just ridiculous.

Well I finally got thru to someone on the phone @ the b@y, and the listing with the $352.73 shipping has been removed, along with his other listings for CB 2.3 Glow Ballistecs. Maybe hopefully they suspended him, too.

I listed a pair of Glow Ballistecs auction style with a start of $199 as well, and they did ok, not great. It seems the real demand is for the Fed day shoe, they are bringing $350 to $400, but not the Nadal shoes.
I think that since people can get the look of Nadal's shoes and spend $120 for the non-glow retail Ballistecs, that hurt the demand for the Glow Ballistecs, while the only way to get the Fed day match look is to get the limited edition shoes.

I don't know about that. I got a pair on **** for 290 SHIPPED. That's essentially what I would have to pay someone to buy it for me plus a little something something for their time.

I definitely agree with your statement about the same look of the nadal shoes. Be interesting to see what they go for in a few years! Don't think I'll be able to part with mine though:)

honestly, I don't think the price will be go up anytime soon.
possibly slight temporary price increase during holiday shopping season.
the shoes is a little strange than apparels. last year, 09 US open fed shoes price were dropped. the price range was between $60-200. during the 09 US open and right after, the shoe price were $300-$400 range.

I don't know how much glow in dark will play in the future and rafa's items are slowly getting popular so will see after two-three years later (hope glow in dark will last longer than 5 years...... (Rafa's items are much less popular than fed items now).

how about NOT

I know Nadal is a champion in his own right, but he's not Michael Jordan status. Even his original Jordan 1's, deadstock pair, have gone for $500-800 max.
Click to expand...

but jordan shoes does not glow in dark hahahaha.
I don't think it will be $1000 per a pair unless someone get nadal's autograph.
anyway, glow in dark feature is very unique idea for the shoes. Hope it will glow forever ^___^

That's actually exactly what I plan on doing. This year at cincy I got two tennis balls, a hat and a sports illustrated cover all signed by him. Granted a shoe is harder to get signed but gotta try!

If you're going to troll me on a 5 year prediction do it in 5 years, not 5 weeks.

Yes, $1000 was over-blown and I wet myself when I had them in my hands.

I just think these are way more valuable in the long run than the USO 2009 Oreos for example.

Not trolling you, and I'm sorry if you are offended. I was just noting how things have changed pretty quickly with the Glow Ballistecs. I too was hyper excited at first glance, but only a few weeks later it's interesting to see that they have turned up in high numbers all over NYC and their value has been diluted somewhat. You weren't to know that would happen.

JoelDali, I have respect for you, especially considering you were the guy that went to the Open and bought things for board members.
 
Does anyone have a pair of the black and lime socks they would sell? I am very interested if so.
Its a pity they don't release awesome exclusives at the Aus Open.
 
JoelDali, do you know if they sold the hot lime wristbands in the smaller size at the open? All I've seen and heard people talk about are the double wide bands. But there's a guy on the auction site who has three packs of single wide bands and said he got them at the open. Just wanted to get some feedback before potentially bidding

ask for color code. hot lime should be 340 but there were two different hot lime color though.
I saw it at bay but looks like slightly different green than us open nadal wristband more like azrenka wristband color or european version of hot lime color.

He said the color code was 341, so close but not the real hot lime!
 
I can help you guys to get the black/hot lime doublewide wristbands, I don't know why here in Mexico they are, also there are white/gold doublewide wristbands and some blue-white small wristbands. The problem is, the shipping from here to USA or europe is quite expensive. Tomorrow I'll let you know the shipping rates, and if you are interested I'll put 'em on the bay.
P.S. I apologize for did not answer the e-mails that some members sent to me, I have been very busy.

Thanks Juanabiss, my emails are nuno.ricardo.ribeiro@gmail.com and nunoicedfire@hotmail.com for Messenger chat. Please add me so we can talk better.

I'd really wanted the hot lime with black swoosh but they're harder to find, if ther's any available, i've spooked with Nike Stores (international and National, Portugal by the way) but they say that wristbands are out of production and are past model, so they cannot get them.
 
I went to get pasta out of my cupboard last night and out popped a brand new pack of these wristbands. I keep WBs in wierd places.

I'd sell them but I only bought 1 pair dude.

:(

Woo!
I was finally able to land some of this gear! I am in California so I have been especially unlucky with getting a hold of this stuff, but I finally got some photo blue stuff. Quite nice actually! I just need to get a photo blue conquer crew and I'll be set!

Cheers!

Hi Juannabiss, I´m in Mexico on holiday.

Do you know where to find tennisclothing in Mexico?
And where can I find the wristbands (black-lime)?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Josh, of course I know.
There is a store called Martí, there are a lot of those stores in Mexico, there you can find the wristbands in black/lime and some other colorways like white/gold, blue/black, etc.
If you can't find the store or there is no store in the place, I can buy the wristbands for you and send them where you are.
Btw, where are you going to be?

Hey juannabiss,

I was wondering the cost of those wristbands in Mexico. I am up in California and was wondering if we could discuss sending some up here. Shoot me an email through my profile.

Thanks!
