Buy on Supwell appHey everyone, I'm absolutely loving this forum that @Yowana has put together! Like a lot of you, I am a running shoe enthusiast that uses daily miles as an excuse to purchase a new pair of shoes as often as I can :-)
In thinking through my strategy for selling used running shoes, I'm going to move to a fixed mileage and pricing structure. The agreement I have with my wife is that I have to put at least a hundred miles on a pair of shoes before I can think about purchasing another one. So, here's a list of all the shoes that I'm running in (all size 13). They will go up for sale as soon as they get to 100 miles.
The pricing will be as follows and includes all shipping fees within the lower 48 states:
Daily Trainer: $40
Super Trainer: $60
Race Day: $70
If you see a shoe below that you would like me to earmark for you, simply reply to this message and let me know which one it is. Please don't DM but instead reply to this message so that I can easily keep track of who's interested and in which order. I'll compile a list from first response to last response. Two weeks prior to a shoe being available, I will reach out to the first person on the list. If they are still interested, I will send them multiple pictures of the shoe after my last run in them. I'll work down the list in order and if no one is still interested I'll put up for general sale on the marketplace.
I'm a mid to fore-foot striker and my mechanics are such that I tend to get max mileage out of my shoes. At a hundred miles I can reasonably expect that there will be 150 to 200 good miles left in the shoe, with a few exceptions.
This process will make it a lot easier for me, and hopefully easier for those of you that are a size 13 looking to try out some different shoes!
Here's what I'll have available in the next 2 weeks to 3 months:
