If you’re new to the Air Jordan game, you probably have a whole lot of catching up to do. With nearly every original Air Jordan already gone through the Retro cycle (with a few making several comebacks), the available options to build your Air Jordan collection could keep you busy for months – or you can cop this sick 97-pair collection in one fell swoop. This particular lot includes only the Air Jordan 1 through Air Jordan XIII in sizes 10.5-11.0, but nearly every pair brand spankin’ new and there’s some serious heat in here (’94 Retros, Eminem IIs, the original DMP, etc.). The asking price, however, is at $45,000, which boils down to $463.92 per pair, but the comfort of completing a sick library of Air Jordans in just one click might be too tempting if you have that sort of dough to spare (free shipping, though). Check out the entire collection below, and be sure to check the full listing from babiiicakes26 on eBay.

The Air Jordan Retro news continues as we get a first look at yet another upcoming OG colorway slated for a 2013 comeback. The return of the Air Jordan VIII in the classics “Bugs” colorway was first reported back in October of 2012, joining both the ‘Playoffs’ and the ‘Aqua’ for quite the package of VIII models in 2013. Aside from Michael making these incredibly popular, this White-based version of the Air Jordan VIII was rocked by Bugs Bunny in the classic Space Jam film! These have hit stores as a Retro twice before – once in 2003 and again in 2008 as part of the Collezione Package, so let us know if you might have these already in your collection, or if you’ll be targeting these come April.

Can you spot the differences? This Air Jordan VIII that was produced during the model’s Retro run in 2003, but this particular version of the famed ‘Playoffs’ doesn’t feature the chaotic pattern on the mudguard nor does it have the chenille material on the tongue. We’ve seen some funky Air Jordan VIII samples before (like that upside-down logo of the Aquas), but this considering this alleged 1-of-1 is a size 13.5, there’s a possibility that these could have been created for Michael Jordan himself. Check out the images below, and hit up the auction from Air Jordan collector extraordinaire depeche23mode on eBay.

Pictured here is a silo of the latter done up with materials, textures, and the ‘Playoffs’ colorway from the former.
