I keep telling myself im gonna sell off pairs that i dont ever wear or ones that i dont really need. But when i get them out and look at them, i can'tbring myself to selling them. I know i will regret it like i did when i sold my olympic 7's , my blue 3's and my 12's. i even miss the 20's isold.

I keep thinking about how much money it would be. I went as far as taking them all out and started taking pics. I eventually couldnt bring myself to do it. Butive seriously thought about unleashing at least 90% of the collection. I could never bring myself to sell the aquas though.

Yeah I'm definitely down Derek. It's sounds like all of this has been planned pretty well honestly. I can try and get a few more people that I know andsee if they're interested. If we finally do have a Summit this summer I want it to be right and not just completely bomb like Shoe Summits in other citieshave. Deveroes opens this saturday, February 9th at 10:00 a.m. From what I understand B96.5 will be there for the grand opening.

I think its a little of everything. I've come to the conclusion I'm never happy with what I have, and I don't have the money to buyeverything I want. I know that no one else does either but I don't know. I've only sold a few pairs as of right now. I have a couple more I'm gonnasell now and just let the rest of them sit in the closet in the basement and sell the sometime down the road.

ayy... Deveroe's is real nice.. they didn't have as many jordans as i would have liked to see but they had alot of forces that pretty much made up forit (at marked down prices too).. the main thing i didn't like was that all of the clothes was way too big.. in alot of stuff the smallest size they had wasa 2XL.. but that just might be cuz of it just opening.. but overall, its real nice

As far as the clothing goes, do not expect to see alot of stuff smaller than a XXL. For some reason the owners only order XXL-6XL
JB/Nike typically comes in XL and sometimes L but mostly XXL and up.
