With the new year upon us and fresh off the holiday sneaker frenzy, the momentum is strong for sneakerheads to continue their binge at the 2010 SneakerCon. This buy/sell/trade convention will showcase some of the most exclusive kicks you can find from over 1500+ expected patrons and a long list of vendors, including yours truly. SneakerListing.com and the Sneakers Application on Facebook will have a table at this event to answer any questions you may have regarding our web services as well as also making available for sale a small collection of some kicks of our own.
Come on out to support SneakerCon and the other great vendors this Saturday, January 9th.

Official details and instructions will be announced here at the beginning of the event. The sweepstakes will begin at 12AM EST on October 1st and end at 11:59PM EST on October 12th. In order to enter you will need a Twitter account, so if you don’t have an account yet, sign up today!
SneakerListing.com is looking for help! Ever since day one we have said that this site belongs to the whole of the sneaker community. In order for that to be true, we would like to put the powers of moderation into our users hands. Having said that, we would still need to maintain the integrity of the site by entrusting these responsibilities to knowledgeable individuals that can represent the culture.
Calling all experienced forum moderators – If you have experience in moderating sneaker forums, are knowledgable in all things sneakers, are web savvy, and are interested in participating in our site, please do the following. Send a brief bio of yourself (one or two paragraphs), Include your age and where you currently live. Please describe and also include links or examples of prior experience in the field and also links to your social networking profiles. (Facebook, Twitter, SP or KicksOnFire Profile, etc)
This is not a paid position as the site is currently just starting out and not profitable. However, if the opportunity for revenue presents itself in the future, this will turn into a paid position. We are looking for 2 people.
Please e-mail all submissions to feedback@sneakerlisting.com with the subject “Moderator Position”
From his highly publicized obsession with sneakers to his renowned work as a talented DJ, DJ AM (aka Adam Goldstein) was every bit of a cultural icon to the sneakerhead community as he was to the music industry. We here at SneakerListing are saddened by the news and our hearts go out to his friends and family. Although his recent life was plagued by unfortunate events and bouts with substance abuse, we encourage everyone to celebrate his life, one that is filled with dedication to music and a passion for sneakers.
My original intention was to simplify the listing process for selling sneakers on the web and place as little restrictions on sellers as possible. However, without at least some structure and guidelines, we can not ensure an environment that instills confidence in the shoppers.
Listing Guidelines
All fields are required. You must fill in all fields when listing
The photo upload requirements must be followed. All five photos must be uploaded and they must be photos of the specified type. They are spelled out in RED next to each upload form.
DO NOT post images that are professionally taken product photos that you do not own. You must post photos according to the types stated on the listing form.
Photos must be clear, not fuzzy or distorted.
Photos must be big enough to see the condition of the shoe clearly
Photos of the UPC and the size label must be large enough to be read. If you can’t read the text on the label, then it’s too small.
DO NOT provide descriptions that are generic ad copies or paragraphs taken from other websites’ sneaker history pages. For example, do not write: “Released in 1985, the Air Jordan 1 was a breakthrough in basketball shoe design…”. Write something specific to the pair that you’re selling. For example: “I’m selling my Air Jordans I’s in Black/Red, I bought it on launch date and is deadstock…”
Entire Lots are not allowed. You must list each pair separately
DO NOT Include links to auction sites. Your listing will be removed
Shop owners are no longer allowed to post their stock in bulk on our listings. If you are a shop owner and are interested in advertising or other partnership opportunities, we would be happy to work with you. Otherwise, each pair must be listed as stated above.
All listings submitted will go through moderation before they are approved. If the above guidelines are not adhere to, the system will e-mail you to fix your listings. We reserve the right to immediately remove any non-compliant listings.
This post will continue to be updated as new guidelines emerge as necessary. All of the above are subject to change.
I would like to also point out that the above was provided by one of our users, once again this is the feedback of the community at work! Thanks again and keep the suggestions coming!
