What’s the answer?
lots of shops have been having odd size runs, we all know the answer.
But if you’re there to buy a board, you can skip the line! Nocturnal really not feelin this hypeEveryone else's locals: "Anyone within the state can enter via this online form."
My local: "In-person entry is open for 2 hours in the middle of the day Wed-Fri with possible early cutoff based on demand. One person at a time, everyone else waits in line with the coughing broke-boy resellers and their friends wearing the Yeezys and Supreme hoodies in the middle of the summer."
Gotta appreciate the irony of not having a chance to avoid paying resale because I'm working to make money that will ultimately go towards paying resale.
I definitely agree , holding down your OGs that have supported forever and family makes sense but missing multiple sizes run of each color is a bit much.Of course. Bless the clientele that helped you keep the lights on even during the dark ages for dunks the past 10 years. Instead of some annoying kids, who just discovered they like dunks because Travis Scott, and who will never buy anything from you again that they can't resell, or any other SBs/skate gear
I'm sure these shops can't wait for Nike to stop torturing them with these releases.
Thoughts on stores that do an online and an instore raffle. Any preferences?
Most shops are run with a 1-2 person staff (1 typically always building a deck or helping a parent with questions in store). Like clockwork when these releases drop the phones dont stop ringing and the private messages dont stop.Why would skateshops hate these releases?
they prolly making so much more money.
they don’t gotta do **** but make a post. Check some emails.
and they getting guaranteed pairs towear or flip !
this is butter for them. Especially right now.

so what, theyre making money and increased foot traffic so even if only `1/50 buy anything extra its more money for them if they didnt have a SB release. every retail store has to deal with a hole customers its part of having a business.I mean I get why skatehsops likely hate these kinds of hyped releases.
Folks only come around for those types of releases. They aren't regulars.
The store sells for retail knowing at least half sold will then be resold for much more. You're scraping by as a shop owner making $20/pair for that person to make $500+ off it.
Not to mention all the phone calls and other bs that comes with it.
I wouldn't want to deal with it.
