eBay sellers see gold in new Nike Air Jordan XI Retro,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
eBay is often used to scalp,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], er, overcharge buyers when something comes out in extremely short supply. Witness what happens to iPad sales on the site after a launch, with those who persevered and stood in line for hours --- or more --- reaping 2x or more the value of an iPad. The same began happening on Friday, as a new set,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or rather a retro set of Air Jordans went on sale for the first time.

The demand was sky high for the Nike Air Jordan XI Retro "Concord" sneakers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which retail at $180 and are based on a design that first went on sale in 1995. Folks were so wild for them they jumped through hoops (pun intended) to get them.
In Richmond,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Calif. a man was arrested after he fired his handgun into the air,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in an attempt to scatter the crowd of 2000 - 3000 people, so he could get the shoes. He didn't get them. Most of the people in line didn't get them either,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as the stores in the mall were already sold out before he fired the gun.
In Seattle, a man was arrested for assault after he pushed a police officer. Needless to say, he didn't get his Nike Air Jordan XI Retro "Concord" sneakers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], either.
Other examples of bad shopping behavior include:
Lithona,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ga.: up to 20 squad cars responded to a mall after a large crowd broke down a door to get inside before a store opened.
In Dayton,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ohio,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shoppers began fighting while in line outside a store. Some people sold their spots in line.
In Indianapolis, Ind.,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hundreds stampeded a store,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and one girl was nearly trampled. Another shopper said she "was able to be the first one in,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but I kinda hit my hand on the door. I was bleeding but it's all good. It was worth it." [the Nike Air Jordan XI Retro "Concord" sneakers were more important than the woman's health]
Nike issued a statement on Friday afternoon saying,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "We are extremely concerned to hear of the reported crowd incidents . Consumer safety and security is of paramount importance. We encourage anyone wishing to purchase our product to do so in a respectful and safe manner."
