Saw "Prelude" ...once the next 10 words didn't mention Kobe I stopped reading. But I scrolled down and saw success and the pack so congrats

This at first I was like why is there Kobe talk in the foam thread.....thought bigj had an inside scoop on some snake foams or something

Outta reps for the day already, but I'll hit you on the flip for this one BigJ. Great story, and a heluva come-up!

Thanks guys. Def happy it worked out. I was on the grind when I saw it was my size.
The penny 6 has a couple of dark spots on the left shoes fuse area but it's no game breaker. The foams are perfect.

The problem with Gentry, dude is really good at his job he made JB into a billion dollar brand. He made foams popular to a whole new audience he pushes out crazy packs. (CDP Penny Packs etc and charge crazy prices and ppl buy they them. Where ever they stick Gentry he makes the swoosh lots of money. As long as he is doing that dude will never leave or be forced to leave.... Sad but true

JB has been doing better since he left. The packs you mention were sitting and flopped sans a couple.
And I give him no credit for the foams stuff either. People were heavy on foams before he came over. All he did was flood the market with them.

Got my penny pack for $350 plus tax but it took some work.

Day 1: Prelude
Took my mom in-law to the airport and figured id check the outlet near there since its friends and family this weekend.
Got to the outlet and promptly saw a size 9.5 penny pack behind the counter but then i saw a slip of paper on it. :x
Asked the dude and he said it was on hold for someone.

Looked around the store some then ended up at the counter since i was returning my extra gold foams (lord knows y i thought i needed doubles).
Chatted with dude and he was real chill. So i was like was it on hold for an employee (so i could go rap with dude) or a customer (so i could make some moves) and dude said it was a customer.
Then he was like "the dude didn't seem like he really wanted the pack so check back tomorrow."

We chatted a bit more and he was like call back at 9pm the next day (right before close) and see if i can put them on hold for Saturday.

Day 2: I Holla
Set my alarm for 8:55pm and I am glad i did because i was playing video games and lost track of time. Called and they put them on hold for me.

Day 3: Success
Called to confirm they were still there
Got there and saw a dude i had actually purchased some shoes from that works there. Dude actually told me the customer's card was declined so he was like he wanted to put them on hold. They put them on hold but figured dude wasn't coming back. I personally think dude went home and saw no resell value so was like forget it especially since his funds was on E. The employee was also like a few people had put the packs on hold and that they thought about copping but no one actually pulled the trigger. Good for me

Moral:
Just chat with dudes.... at first they may be disengaged but a chill customer can get results more times than not. The employee told me what was good and how to make it happen. Wouldn't have gotten the pack without him.
