i verified with their call line they will get the blk/wht as well
Ok, good news. When I called (and on their site) it only mentioned the Black/Red. Any word on them getting the ASG?

Because you're preventing someone that wants to keep the shoe from getting it for retail. Resellers destroy the shoe game beyond belief for marginal profits at best. The term 1 to rock 1 to stock is OK with me. But one to rock 1 to stock and 3 more to pay them off is not.
It makes sense, but I'm not gonna sit there and be upset at someone who chooses to use sneakers as an outlet to make extra dough. Don't knock him, be upset and the people who fall victim and give these people ridiculous amounts of money for general releases.
Reselling been going on before me and you were even thought about, people make it seem like it's some new epidemic. Can't be mad at a tactic that's been practiced for decades.
AND...whose to say that when I leave those extra pairs, that a reseller isnt coming behind me and grabbing them? For me, it depends
on the release and the relatively ease of me getting the shoe. Like I have said in the thread before, if they are rotting on shelves here and everyone else needs them, ill pick them up and unload them at a fair price. I would expect everyone to do the same, if similarily situated. Its been done to me, and I have done it. Plain and simple.
haha good looking on the link.. too bad no more XXL or even XL, 4.99 a great priceStill haven't got my shoes from windycity but just ordered this shirt anyway. http://www.homersapparel.com/collections/lineup/products/missing

Just FYI you're responding to 2 different people about reselling. Nothing I say or do will change the fact that resellers exist. If you re-sell shoes then do your thing, but you got it all wrong if you don't think the game is twisted because of resellers. I've seen stores sell FSR's to people that have no intention of keeping the shoe at all and turning them around for a profit. Look at the Jordan Retro 11's for example, everyone paid attention, everyone took a swing at them and a lot of people struck out. Ebay has FSR's going for 350-400 a pop though. You're telling me that's ok?But just because you choose to do that good deed, didn't have anything to do with anyone else. You did that out of your own kindness, so why you worried about who's coming behind you if you leave a pair back? That's not your fault to worry about if a reseller comes behind you and cops.
I just think people look to point fingers so much at resellers when fact of the matter is that too many people sleep on releases. If you want it, become attentive and make sure you cop. It's that easy. There's no sneaker that's un-obtainable for the right price. Not everyone is as kind as you and as fair.
I'll give you similar storyline here, I copped two og sonics. Planned on keeping both, but when I saw all these other colorways coming out, I decided that I was going to part ways with one. So I looked at eBay, resellers were going anywhere from 160-225-250. I said alright, I'm going to charge 157 shipped, which covers the insurance, the cost for the box, the label, and the 4%. So by time I'm done with everything else I probably end up with like 128-135.
Offer to sell that extra pair for 157, people hit me up saying that's too high. I go on Craigslist and someone gladly gives me 160. Am I wrong?
Because I offered a reasonable price, opposed to what people want. All these websites want 180 and you'll be lucky to get a damn return label if you cop. You can't fault me for not selling for retail like you did, because 9 times out of 10 the people you help out aren't going to return the favor. So excuse me if I don't use the same tactics. If these were true grails for most people then they would've jumped on em two weeks before the release with the packer pre order and the YCMC preorder like I did.
It's just a constructive conversation, but I'm interested to see where you ascend with your standpoint.
