Do you know any good stores to buy Mens' Nike Basketball shoes?
I live near Shoe Palace and Shoe Pavilion, but never entered once. I bought all my shoes before at Foot Locker, but none close by now.
I need a store w/ big selection and low prices. Or should I just go on eBay and buy the shoes?
If you're a real cheapass...
Steve and Barry's. Ask for the $15 Starbury Shoes.

Says in first post... I want those at the lowest possible prices. I must have 'em! Hehe
Or are these impossible to find low priced in stores?

Why would people buy shoes on ebay? I've never understood how people can buy shoes without trying them on first.

You'd have to be 100% of your shoe size before buying on eBay.
Or, use eBay as method 2:
Buy $130 shoe at store. All nice and new. Buy it $90 new on eBay. The shoe is new, but it looks dusty/shoe lace is dirty. Take that eBay shoe, return to store, get $130 back.
In the end, you get "store purchased new" shoes for eBay's price of $90. Factory fresh new for an eBay price! Guess that's one use of eBay... Heh...

what if you dont have one of those store around? Pay ebay price for Starbury?
The Starbury shoes are just as good.

Not all shoes fit the same way.....
Try ZAPPOS.com
See how their prices are, they usually give you free return shipping if you need a different size.

I go to marshalls or AJ Wright, if you have one of those stores near you they have the cheapest sneakers.
As for the ebay shoes, its useful if you want the same pair you had before, you can just order the same size, maybe get a different color if thats available. I ordered a pair of sneakers from ebay to replace a worn out pair, because I wanted the same pair again and they came in brand new condition, not even tried on, so its even better than going to a store where everyone tries on the shoes.
Or you could just try on a pair at the store, remember your size, then go order them on ebay for cheaper..
