0:00
it was up guys this is time from our
0:01
psychics calm and I got another quick
0:04
show for you tonight so the LeBron James
0:07
on Zoom generation the black one came
0:09
out today and they were costing 175 and
0:13
some people be like man this is too
0:15
expensive yes it is because when they
0:18
came out in two thousand three or four
0:20
they were 110 or 130 right so I and then
0:24
what happens is there's something that
0:25
we call the inflation so inflation is
0:27
affected by a lot of things in a way
0:29
geez you know you're buying power
0:31
changes so what twenty dollars could buy
0:34
you in 2010 that's one that can buy the
0:36
same thing in 2015 so things change and
0:40
a lot of things cause inflation to
0:42
causing inflation so I wanted to kind of
0:44
share that with you today and then let
0:46
you know that um the price that you're
0:49
actually paying for the LeBron now it's
0:51
not really too bad 175 is actually okay
0:53
and I'll show you real quick with so
0:56
many pictures that I have what happened
0:59
from where years at 2004 to 2017 that's
1:03
like 12 13 years or how how's the price
1:06
change right so that's what we're gonna
1:08
be talking about today and and before I
1:11
do it and those shoes actually the
1:14
LeBron one when they came out on the
1:15
absolute generation I don't think people
1:17
went crazy crazy form like LeBron James
1:20
was like the biggest hike coming out of
1:21
high school and then everybody thought
1:23
man this dude it's gonna be all talk
1:25
my man look the guy I'm not a LeBron
1:28
faint but I'm a he's a beast man look
1:32
six eight six nine to 60 he could do
1:35
everything right he can possibly shoot
1:37
you could drive and now there's no hand
1:39
checking you can't stop her I'm gonna do
1:41
this like the Beast you know take away
1:43
all the whining that he does he's a
1:46
and LeBron James she was didn't really
1:48
take often like the LeBron seven there
1:51
are star stuff because everything else
1:52
was like ah and then when you went to
1:54
Miami that's when they actually get like
1:56
took off like the pre heat so Nikes
2:00
trying to like bring back down on the
2:02
old stars the classics and I think
2:05
they're really trying to repaint like
2:07
repair what happened with a Nike
2:09
basketball because Nike basketball is
2:10
dead no shoes is selling
2:13
so it's trying to repair that so let's
2:15
get into the show okay I don't want to
2:16
talk too much so I'm gonna share my
2:18
screen and I'm gonna show you I what I
2:21
alright what I saw oh goodness I ain't
2:25
even I ain't even got the pictures ready
2:27
that's the stupidest thing I've ever
2:29
let me see this alright alright so you
2:33
can find the inflation by using a CPI
2:36
calculator the Consumer Price Index
2:38
calculate that's what I used so in 2004
2:41
when the shoe came out it was 130 right
2:44
now with time what happens is the price
2:47
changes again as the impression now the
2:49
inflation price is 170 3.14 which is
2:52
this is how much Nike should really
2:54
charge for issue which is 173 and the
2:56
actual price knives like hundred and
2:57
seventy-five so you're not bringing too
2:59
much for a man like the 175 is actually
3:02
what you supposed to pay so Nike did not
3:04
take advantage all right you pay the
3:07
actual price so don't feel like man they
3:09
charging too much so I'm out of shoes do
3:11
it they did but this one they did so you
3:13
you actually playing the right price 175
3:15
is about is about right but here's the
3:18
thing uh Nike day and I talked about a
3:20
couple of days ago Nike if you go on a
3:24
footlocker I wrote the article I kill it
3:27
today I'm gonna go my website real quick
3:29
intro to you when you go full akame like
3:33
you don't see these shoes on footlocker
3:35
the zoom generation nobody else had it
3:38
but these tall nike.com undefeated
3:42
boodikka sneaker politic keith lobster
3:45

3:49
boutiques like exclusive boutiques like
3:52
Keith Nike just open install of Keith
3:54
are in Manhattan right
3:56
tonight he's like doing a wave like a
3:58
lot of the wholesale distribution
4:00
channel this is what I see so what
4:02
happens is you gonna see more and more
4:04
exclusive sneakers hidden like stores
4:08
like Keith and supreme because Nike is
4:10
trying to repair the basketball image is
4:13
well if you go on like Nike website uh
4:16
or if you go on a footlocker all the KDS
4:19
they say nobody buying them things so
4:22
they really trying to like get back to
4:24
having better sneakers
4:26
and in better prices there's gonna be
4:28
scarcity there's gonna be exclusive
4:30
sneakers and then footlocker having food
4:32
like I said gonna get issues but like
4:34
places like TTL are Jimmy guys I think
4:37
they're gonna suffer man cuz like he's
4:39
trying to just like do away they try to
4:41
go like Cosco DTC that right the
4:44
consumer so you gonna see a lot of these
4:46
shoes coming back but they only gonna
4:47
hit the Nike website so your inflation
4:49
price at 175 is actually a right so you
4:52
know paying too much for it and when I
4:54
check the price they go on price for the
4:55
shoes on ebay they going for at 2:30 and
4:57

5:17
let's go on the store listings so
5:20
they're going for like yeah 279 and 249
5:22

5:25
not gonna be paying too much rent ass
5:27
cause you know he made that many shoes I
5:29
wasn't even able to find out how many
5:31
shoes they made so that's kind of hard
5:33
all right so let me stop sharing my
5:35
screen and I talked a little bit so
5:37
basically you know way too much the 175
5:39
is I but now finally shows a problem
5:42
Nikes not gonna give it to Foot Locker
5:44
they're gonna hear it like boutiques cuz
5:47

5:48
to do it over like a wholesale
5:50
distribution channel so finish line and
5:52
all them they're gonna get so many shoes
5:54
man Nikes trying to go back to scarcity
5:56
is trying to make it seem like they
5:58
start that you get is like exclusive you
6:01
