The $175 floor on the Air VaporMax Plus “White Platinum” broke: size 11.5 is $109
Sizes 8 and 9 also sell under retail, at $160 and $170. Size 10 fell $83 this week but is still over retail.
Size 11.5 is now the cheapest way into the Air VaporMax Plus “White Platinum”: $109 for a new pair, $81 under the $190 retail. A week ago the cheapest pair in sizes 8 to 12 was $175, in size 8, so the floor dropped 38%.
That is one size only. The next cheapest is size 8 at $160, and every other size from 8 to 12 sits between $160 and $336. If you wear an 11.5, I'd buy now. If you don't, this drop mostly passes you by.
How it got here
My nightly checks have only seen the cheapest pair change once since they began on September 29:
- September 29: $175, where the price started
- November 6: $109, today
So the floor held at $175 for over a month and then fell in one step.
What moved this week
- Size 11.5: down $71 to $109
- Size 10: down $83 to $216, still $26 over retail
- Size 9: down $41 to $170, $20 under retail
- Size 8: down $15 to $160, $30 under retail
- Size 8.5: newly listed at $336, the priciest size from 8 to 12
Sizes 9.5 and 11 didn't move. In all, seven of the nine sizes from 8 to 12 have a listing, and three of them are under retail. The table below shows each size now, a week ago and against retail.
| US size | Nov 6 | Oct 30 | Vs retail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | $160 | $175 | −$30 |
| 8.5 | $336 | not listed | +$146 |
