this. haha i noticed they added a buy it now for 10,000$ on a few pairs.
you also have to take into consideration that fox's hollywood pals are probably bidding on a pair to win for themselves/donate..

On the Q & A:

Q: DO THE 2011 NIKE MAG SHOES POWER-LACE?
No. For the power-lace feature you will have to wait until 2015.

If only I was rich... These shoes are so fucking cool. They are ugly but I do not think I would wear this if I owned them.

You haters need to learn how to watch good movies. I bet if someone wore these in the hangover you all would be jizzing your pants over them

they are for a good cause guys, my god. what's more sad is you douchebags dropping $40 on cotton tall tees with a Jiberish logo screen printed on them because mommy gave you her credit card.

No, they're for suicide. 

I hope someone here buys them so we can all point and laugh though.

who cares what the price is. obviously people are willing to pay. i think we all would do the same if we could make bank off a replica shoe. the simplicity is the genius.

so its 150 pairs a day through the 18th.. I'm guessing by the 14th or 15th they'll be under a grand, and then the pairs on the 18th will spike back up. at least I'm hoping. want a pair bad.

first of all....man you kids suck these day. One of the best movies of all time. Second......look at all those fucking SUPRAs out there. Those are so fucking ugly, and just as big.

All of them are going for around 6k now. Like at least 30 bids each.

For the people who keep asking why we don't know where they are from: we do, we just think they are ugly.

Granted, the money is going to a good cause.

Hmm, he was right about the ebay so kinda weird about the fairly conflicting statements:

Q: WERE THE 2011 NIKE MAG SHOES USED IN THE FILM BACK TO THE FUTURE PART II?
The 2011 NIKE MAG shoes are movie prop replicas inspired by the Nike shoes appearing in the 1989 film Back to the Future Part II. The 2011 NIKE MAG shoes are not designed or intended for normal wear and use as footwear.

the ones that went for 40k were actually sold for 9959, the remaining 30,100 was just donations being made that they added on to show how much people were donating. or thats what i heard/interpreted.
