Dang this is harder than I thought. Do you have anything laying around that house that could be sold for $ on eBay?

Yes actually i have a New 3ds XL that is in ok-good condition and I have a few pokemon games and one of them has an f ton of rare pokemon on it which adds value.

It's the foundation of shitty financial management. What you do now with your first income is a hard pattern to break. 

This was not the purpose of the thread.

Speak with your parents, explain to them that you really want these shoes and that you're willing to do work around the house to save up for them. To be honest $350 is a lot for a pair of sneakers, you're 13 and still growing so they may not fit you next year. I'd recommend not buying them, but saving up for something that wont fall a part in a years time.

Who said to sell all his stuff? Just the stuff he does not need/want anymore.

One idea is "flipping". Check out craigslist and see what items that are relatively cheap that people are selling. Then go to the thriftstore, find something similar for a low price and sell it on craigslist for a higher price.

Are these shoes made from gold? This sum is near my paycheck for 2 months...

I guess things are different in different countries.
