It’s only getting more and more difficult to pick up original Air Jordan pairs. As the number of Air Jordan collectors grows every year, the set number of vintage sneakers from the line continue to get snatched up, passed around, and un-deadstocked. Which is why this group is such a crazy opporunity if you’ve got the cash to make it happen. Shown is a group of OG Air Jordans in various conditions, including the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan VI, Air Jordan VII, Air Jordan VIII, Air Jordan IX, Air Jordan X, Air Jordan XI, Air Jordan XII, and the Air Jordan XIII. Take a look at all the pairs rounded up in the group after the jump, then take a look at the auction to purchase them from quentinours on eBay.

As we reach the halfway mark of the Air Jordan ‘Black/Neon Green’ collection we arrive at the Air Jordan XII, a silhouette that should be fresh in everyone’s mind thanks to last year’s thorough retro treatment. This special #XX8DaysofFlight pair has the neon green sections looking a bit brighter than on previous entries. Of course the upper is the same-a jet black to go with the stealthy theme surrounding the upcoming Air Jordan XX8. Stay with us should any more images pop up and remember that there’s a chance to win each sneaker in the lineup from the folks at Jordan Brand.

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.

Ray Allen has been a major player in the Air Jordan PE game for decades, with plenty of sick colorways made just for the Jordan Brand athlete throughout all stages of his NBA Career. His most celebrated stint was his Celtics years, when he won his first NBA Title, set a record for most Threes in history, and rocked some of the sickest Jays we’ve ever seen. This Home-based White/Green PE was one of many XIIs he rotated throughout his Boston stay (the entirety of XII PEs can be seen in our Air Jordan XII PE Spotlight feature), so check out the images below and place an offer in the listing from joycelpc20122012 on eBay.

12/12/12 – it’s a fortuitous alignment of month, day, and year that falls on our laps just once a year, and considering we won’t see that abbreviated date for another century, we might as well take the cue and feature the most iconic “12″ sneaker in history – the Air Jordan XII. This Tinker Hatfield design was unveiled in the ’96-’97 NBA Season, worn by Michael Jordan in four different colorways – the “Taxi”, “Flu Game”, “Playoffs”, and the White/Red – and in all those shoes, MJ has pulled of some amazing feats of excellence.
