did you buy the yotr online or retail and where? i'm curious and envy you right now

 

[dc30]

I have all 4 12" Ghostbusters in that case haha...good looks indeed...

As for the box on the YOTR's. It's the same size as the other 2, just the way I angled them for the quick pic.

 

[dc30]

Those Rabbits I got from eBay from Air-Randy...they were not cheap. But now as I see Niketown NY and my HoH here are doing a lame raffle and are unsure of a shipment respectively, I don't mind that I spent the $$ on them when I did. Have a feeling reseller prices after the weekend are going to be just dumb high.

No i'm glad, b/c JB finally came out with a new sig shoe worth buying, granted at first people were kinda skeptical. When i saw the wht/blk i thought they were hideous (still do), but in other colorways, this shoe looks nice, plus the little added perks, 2 insoles, shoes wrapped in a d*mn cloth. Its the small things.

I salute you JB.

Now lower your d*mn prices.

I'd say $170 is fair considering the quality of the shoes as well as getting 2 different midsoles and the extra tidbits with it.

Keep in mind that this HoH manager was trying to charge customers $300 for Foamposites last weekend on release date. What do I make of this and how would y'all handle it? My crew, all longtime NT members, and myself have been loayal customers and back when the original CDP released (he was the manager @ Footaction then), got burned by him in a similar fashion.

Are you trying to get your pairs on lock? Or is that price after you wait with everyone else?

I use the non flash, but it really doesnt matter, they both slow WAAAAAY down with heavy traffic.  It took about 10 minutes to complete my order with the Cool grey's

^^^D@mn. Gonna do the phone/computer 1-2 combo on these tonight.

@joekamel - I was just trying to go cop them when they opened, but he wasn't even entertaining that as an option. No early line or possibility of getting them @ all without paying the elevated "extorsionistic" price.

That's messed up. Not sure what you can do about that. I mean, who would you go to report that stuff? Maybe call em out by name on NT? Don't know.

 

[prostaffer]

@ Dimez

Thanks, sorry I misread. That is terrible. Maybe he's just saying that to scare people, since I doubt he can actually do it. I wonder if HOH prohibits employees from purchasing on release dates.

Set a Trap dude video everything, Shady Manager...
There's plenty of that here in Chicago Burbs, Managers that are arrogant sons of V-tches...

This is why I rarely buy from sneaker stores...

I know a good amount of the mom and pop joints pull that, but you shouldn't be seeing that from Niketowns or HoHs.

 

[iv tha mercy]

only 87 pages of hype for this shoe, hopefully this is a good sign. Granted these arent a GR, but fingers crossed.

 

[optimusp517]

I'm not going to dig through 87 pages of goods, but the YOTR is one per customer?

 

[prostaffer]

+1 joekamel

I actually buy from a mom and pop that gives me discounts, doesn't rape me. I got my white/blues for retail and early cuz of the good relationship.

I go to FTL/HOH expecting to pay retail, not reseller prices. That is wrong on so many levels. I don't even know how a retailers POS system allows them to charge more than MSRP. It's obviously a scam or a way for them to secure shoes for themselves.
