Things have really changed
Just as recently as last year, the White/Cement 3's were incredibly easy to pickup. Only like 4 people were at the mall last year.
This year, more like 40. I thought I was straight, I went to Footaction and was about 8th in line. They had a flyer taped in front of the store that showed their size run -- 12 total, 1 of each size up to 13 except 2 10's and 10.5's. I figured I was golden because I'm a 10.5 but would have settled for a 10.
We all get inside and everyone forms and orderly line. Pretty tame as far as the customers really. But then we find out the supposed 12 pairs is really only 6 -- and the one size 10.5 they had went right away. No size 10's at all. By the time I got to the register, everything was gone.
Ridiculous. What I don't understand is, if the employees see 20+ in line and know they only have 6 pairs (they claimed that they didn't know anything about the size flyer and that mall security posted it), why wouldn't they let us know? Why would you have a chunk of people standing there waiting for no reason at all, if you know there's only 6? Poorly handled to say the least.
So sick of shoes right now. These were literally the only JB release I wanted this year.

Yea, the end of my Jordan collecting days is near. The game is littered with resellers like never before.Story time: (P.S. I know I'm gonna get hate for my story but please try and understand how I feel even just a lil' bit)-Go scoop my dude who is able to get a military discount at FL and/or FA. The goal was to get me 2 size 12's.-Get to the mall around 7:30. Only one other guy in parking lot.-Mall opens and we go inside and bolt to FinishLine (only shoes store in mall). It's me, my dude, the guy from parking lot, and 2 chicks. 5 people all the way till 8:45am.-Managers comes at 8:50 but is alone and doesn't open store till 9:30. He hands out tickets. I'm #3.-While in line, my dude starts to think about how nice the shoes are and how he'd be missing out. Last minute decides to effing buy the shoes.-My dude gets his sz.10. I go in and ask for 2 12's. 1 pair per customer.-Manager says I can get back in line and that they have 1 more size 12 left. -I ask is anyone else getting a sz.12. Yep, one skinny dude was.-Made calls and drove all around but to no avail. Didn't get my 2nd pair.First and foremost, I am EXTREMELY grateful I got the 1 pair I did. I'm just salty because I am a collector that stocks 1, rocks 1. These shoes are MAD clean and I want to wear them tonight but I can't w/o a 2nd pair. So now I'm trying to lock down a second pair.My dude big time screwed me over. He only came to assist in me getting my 2 pairs. His discount didn't work at Finish Line. I wish he would've known he may consider buying them a lil' earlier cuz I woulda brought someone else along to buy my 2nd pair for me. I am heated...

I went to my local mall, and Foot Locker only had 18 pairs. There were over 20 people in front of me. I woke up early for nothing. I'm glad I copped my size 12 last night on FNL.

they need to resell enough pairs to cover the one or two pairs they cant afford in the first place. not many reasonable people hold on to more than two pairs.

Out of curiousity...If you get a confirmation order e-mail from NDC, is it safe to say that I'm good? How is NDC with cancelling orders?

Dude like 3 people in front of me got the last size 8. I'm somewhat heated cuz I'm stuck wit this 10.5 now

you are being selfish IMO...
even if you buddy didnt tag along it was one pair per customer, so you wouldn't have been able to double up

Never received a confirmation email, but paypal payment still says "pending". Hopefully it went through!

ONE OF MY PAIRS AND MY DAUGHTER'S PAIR
MY DAUGHTER'S REACTION WAS PRICELESS
My niece has a mind of her own at this point when it comes to footwear lol. At the age of 4 (5 in April). Likes mostly AMs, but I try and get her in a few pairs of J's. Gotta get the girl colors though to make her smile. Gonna get her the Pink IV's, she's not a purist like me.
If I have a boy all bets are off.
