all right i've got these one-of-a-kind
posters from the nike air mag release
sweet you know the martin mcfly shoe
from back to the future yeah back to the
future too right it was the uh you know
the crazy lit up nike shoes that he had
exactly they sold i think 1500 pairs of
the shoes they optioned them off for
charity and these were the actual
posters that were there the ones that
this was releasing didn't actually have
the electronic laces all right no no
electronic places
i acquire the posters through trading i
start trading something small traded up
something bigger and uh ended up with
these posters they're rare but also
they're printed on a special type of
plastic they look great when i was
growing up i definitely wanted some of
those air mags and a hoverboard flying
car time machine any of that stuff
i mean they're definitely cool looking i
mean the delorean never looked this cool
that's for sure
i think the shoes from the second one
was probably one of the most memorable
things yeah
so what do the posters have to do with
the shoes though they made a short film
called back for the future to actually
release the shoe
okay so was this something you could buy
at the auction or was this just like a
display at the auction kind of it was a
display at the auction it's never been
available to the public
okay
any idea of what you want to get well i
was hoping for
about 600 bucks each
you know i've got a few concerns man
you know i know the shoes are really
popular i don't know if the poster
promoting the shoes
is gonna be something people are into
okay
you mind if i call someone in to take a
look
sure that'd be great all right i'll be
right back
if this guy had a pair of nike mags
instead of these posters it'd be a lot
easier to come up with a price but i do
have a really close friend who knows
pretty much everything there is to know
about nike and not much else
okay well these are actually back for
the future
it basically was just a little promo
film to promote the nike air mags a
pretty cool shoe it was designed by
tinker hatfield and he created all the
famous jordans your average person just
couldn't go into the nike store and buy
these shoes you actually had to be at a
live auction and you had to go inside
there and you had to bid on the shoes
that's the reason people want to collect
this shoe because it is limited some of
these went up for you know ten thousand
dollars and even more yeah i was reading
that it's because people were making a
donation to you know the parkinson's
research foundation
so what do you think man i mean he went
600 bucks a piece for him is there any
reason that a shoe collector would buy
the posters
um so you got three of them here yeah
i've got three you got this one
this
one and you're missing the cool one oh
this i know i know there was a four
poster set but
got these three the guy didn't have the
other one so he's missing one of them
these are all really cool but when you
look at these nothing ties these to the
nike air mag except for the nike checks
here
and here
and over here
the other one actually had michael j fox
on the little hover skateboard that he
had and you can see the nike air mags
that's the more sought after poster it
actually relates nike air max to the
poster to the movie and it ties it all
together
as far as these posters go i mean
it just doesn't relate to shoes enough
for me to buy these and hang them in my
shoe room i don't see any collectible
value here for someone who collects
shoes this is more of a back to the
future collector
okay
would you guys still want to make an
offer
well i'm just here as an expert today
man so my work is done all right thanks
a lot thank you
see you later corey i'll see you over
there go start cleaning something up man
so what kind of offer would you uh be
willing to make on these
tell you what man i'll give you 500
bucks for the set
oh
you got to take my wife out somewhere
nice man could you do seven
how nice does it have to be man 500
bucks is good she puts up with me man
it's got to be good
i don't necessarily like dealing with
one-of-one items you know none of them
have ever sold before how do i know what
to pay you yeah i understand to be
honest with you you'd probably do better
with an original back to the future
movie poster then you are going to be
doing these i'll go like 525 bucks i
can't really pay you much more than that
though 550 would do 550.
[Music]
yeah man i'll do 550.
go ahead and leave these here okay come
with me
it's hard to put a price on a
one-of-a-kind item but i think i did
really good with these if the right
buyer walks in here i'll definitely make
a profit
you
