THECOOLSHOESHINE is as legit as they come, so when this auction ends (on a popular size at that), consider it a good baseline for Foamposite "Galaxy" pricing. Not to say you won't have to spend more (especially if you're, say, a size 13), but it's unlikely you'll get a pair for less unless you're willing to take chances on a 0 feedback bidder with no photos. And, well, good luck with that.

Now, these are coming from Canada, which explains the $35 shipping. Of course, if you're willing to pay $1,500-plus for a pair of shoes, the extra $35 shouldn't bother you much. (Conversely, if you're selling shoes for a thousand-percent markup, why should you be charging for shipping? But that's not our problem.) We like the Galaxy LeBron 9s in the background, too. So casual. "Why yes, I got those, too."

Ah, the old "let's put the name of every hot shoe in the listing so it gets more search results." Dude. You're selling a pair of Galaxy Foamposites, which might be the hottest shoe in the, um, galaxy right now. Do you really think adding "KOBE" to your listing is going to make it more popular? Then again, with 48 bids in, maybe it worked.

Hooray to no reserve! Also props to the painful honesty in the listing itself: "The only explanation for the asking price is because that's how much I bought them for and I'm trying to profit off of them." Welp, good luck fella.

Again with the pointless keywords. Yes, I suppose you might draw in that person looking for copper Foams who didn't realize Galaxies existed. But we doubt it. This entrepreneurial soul seems to have gotten his hands on a bunch of pairs, as that ceiling fan photo appears quite often in the Galaxy listings. But fam, please, lose the autoplay Khaled.

Not only does Dom want to sell his shoes (well, if they meet reserve), Dom wants you to know how to get in touch with him. Along with his e-mail on the tag, Dom includes his Twitter handle and his NikeTalk name. What, no Facebook link?

This might be our favorite Galaxy auction. The listing is simple and to the point, there's no reserve, and the photos even include the Foot Locker receipt. We also like the use of the date on the card, which gives the whole auction a sort of hostage situation, proof-of-life vibe.

Another Canadian auction, this one includes lots of large, clear photos — although no handwritten tag. That said, the feedback should alleviate any fears.

We're not entirely sure about this one. The price is higher than definite legit auctions despite the zero feedback, the terrible photos and the hastily written (we hope) description. But given the way people are fiending, who knows?

The outlier. While not nearly as insane as the pair that got bid up to $70k-plus (or the ones with five-figure opening bids), there's no reason Galaxy Foams should be selling for just short of $6k. But the seller seems legit enough, and the photos look real (make your bed, dude). Just know you can do better.
