Been into Adidas since my youth, all my footwear exept 1 pair of dms for work is Adidas inc Ransoms for the winter. I buy and sell Adidas for a living(partime) but wont expand on this at the moment. Ive 2 sets of trainers 1 that stays in the box and 1 that gets worn.My son(16) also collects and has star wars, jeremy scotts and a few originals. He recently on a trip to the states got invited to the staff shop in Portland, which cost me a few quid.
Most rare pair? well this week got my hands on a pair of W1 Low Adicolor in the wooden box with all paints etc as new.
Glad Ive found this site as it shows to the wife Im not more odd ball and theres others out there with the same passion.

Buy and sell for a living?
If God gives you lemons you should find a new God
Sorry UK based.
Buy anything I think is cheap and move it on for a profit.
Thanks for the welcome.

Does your buisness include buying up as many limited releases as possible then doubling the price and chucking them straight on the bay?
Or, just selling general release old stock.

Let's be crystal clear: do you buy Adidas superstars on the cheap and resell them at a profit?
If so, does this include hard to find, limited releases?
If God gives you lemons you should find a new God
I dont buy new releases and sell them on, I tend to buy old seasons stock and sell it on.To give you an idea when the Kopenhagens came out in yellow and black at size? I bought a pair for me at £69.99ish.4 weeks ago I found 2 pair in an Adidas outlet for just over £17 each, which I bought to resell. The only Superstars Ive come across cheap have been star wars jedi and rouge squadron but these are old stock now.
I buy most of my stock in mainland europe where the trends/tastes may be different.
You dont see many Superstars about but what I do doesnt seem to be cheap compared with what you can find spending a few hours on the net.
Im not in the loop with people like No6 where new releases sell before the doors open. Im like most I find my trainers/clothes by research and many miles on the road.
