Is The Air Jordan 1 High ‘Electro Orange’ a Good Sneaker to Resell?
The Air Jordan 1 High ‘Electro Orange’ received a lot of hate in the weeks leading up to its release. The release date for the sneaker was on the same day of writing for this story.
A year ago, this sneaker would’ve been an automatic buy and probably would’ve resold for more than it is now. Aftermarket prices at the time of release date were sitting around $200 and $230.
However, in today’s resell market, Jordan 1 Highs — or most pairs of sneakers — don’t resell like they used to. Sneakers aren’t doing bad, but unless it’s a hyped pair of kicks like Mocha 1s or University Blue 1s then you might have to start the long-term hold game if you really want to start making money.
For the Air Jordan 1 High ‘Electro Orange’ specifically, quick flips might only net you around $10-$20 per pair. If you live in a state that doesn’t charge tax on sneakers and you can get free shipping on them, you might make a little more money.
Here are a couple more ways you can use to make more money with the ‘Electro Orange’ Jordan 1 Highs.

Sell pre-orders on eBay
Pre-orders on eBay are one of the best ways to sell sneakers at the time of writing this story. Not only are they easy to list and sell, but they are fee free. That means you don’t have to pay any selling fees if you sell sneakers over a certain amount of money.
Also, you don’t have to have the sneakers in your hand to make a pre-order sale on eBay. They can still be in the mail and you can list them and get paid for them. Just make sure you adjust your handling time of the listing to a longer amount of days.
Sell locally
Local sales are similar to selling on eBay because there are no seller fees to pay. It leaves you more room to make a profit.
However, selling locally means you have to have the clientele to buy your sneakers. If you don’t already have a following then it will be difficult to find someone to buy your sneakers.
Also, you might have to meet in a public location to sell locally because you probably will not know the buyer well enough to trust them.
Hold for a year
You can always just hold onto the sneakers for a year and see where the price is then. The shoes will more than likely go up in value between the 6–12 months mark.
Holding is always a great way to get a larger profit margin on your sneakers.
