Im 26 and actually was able to secure my pair online but you sound so  damn stupid.  Have you ever been a manager anywhere if you were you wouldn't be taking a bribe from a regular person and risk your job on that stupid nonsense. As far as copping online if you not on NT or other shoe sites its pretty safe to say you only know of the main shoe websites.  NDC,FNL,FL,Eastbay,Champs,Etc.  Now the site will crash as with any serious jordan release.  By the time you get to checkout its a good chance theyre sold out already in your size.  So you cant go to the store at regular time because they probably opened early now you the first person in line at the regular opening time only to feel stupid cause they sold out two hours prior.  TWO CHOICES camp with the rest of the folks socialize have a good time waiting, or pay reseller price

.  To many stupid posts like yours on here that serve no merit.  Do you and let other people do them

why do you sound mad? are you one of the dudes pictured above?.. i HAVE never camped out during my collecting days and i was always able to get every pair i wanted (QS, GR, T0, etc) through easier means (no inflated prices either).

wow I camped out once in NYC for the Pharrell's and ESPO's back in Jan 2003 (wow that was really 8 years ago) and I would NEVER do that again

I'm happy those days are over, if I can't walk into a store and get them or better yet buy online then it wasn't meant to be, I just happen to be Xmas shopping bright and early tomorrow so I'll buy them since I missed out on the Space Jams if I can walk into Footlocker or Finishline but if they are sold out...my life will go on

Must be nice to have connects.  Some people don't have it though.

some people care way too much about what others do for enjoyment.

at the mark up on JB shoes these days. $175 for the CG XI's, I remember when they use to retail for $125.

No wonder why I never looked back once I got out of the JB shoe game.

what is even worse is how they made you buy a pair of crappy 19's to get a pair of poorly made, cheap materials 4's for $300 of whatever they charged

kids now don't have any nostalgia to Jordan's anymore it's all hype, it's a shame, the only pair I splurged on since prob 2004 was the Infrared 6's because I still remember getting on Christmas 1990 like it was yesterday.  Kid's are too spoiled these days, when I was kid I got one pair of Jordan's a year and it was my Christmas gift so it's a shame to see Jordan Brand ruining that for me, I'd easily pay $175 for a pair of Jordan's if they were well made but they crack, have glue stains, crease instantly nowadays

.

Got a pair of Cement 3's for Christmas this year from my family (I'm 29 so I don't want anything but they refuse to buy me nothing so I had them eBay me a pair) and I can bet you a 03 retro deadstock will prob. still last longer than the 2011's.

I camped out once for the Pharell's & Espo's at NT Chi back in '03....was in line from 1 am-10 am.

All in all, I actually had fun doin it...got a chance to meet new people from several surrounding states, and even put a face to some NT screennames (anybody remember "ShoKKa" w/the Mario Lopez avatar?)

I dont look down on those who do it...maybe they dont want to pay inflated prices, or DONT have any hook-ups? Managers at shoe stores move around like chess pieces...once you establish a relationship with one, they get fired or promoted, and it's on to the next person. Also, I'd NEVER take my chances ordering online on a release day...forget that.

In the end, who cares how they get them......as long as they do. That's what it's all about (no Hokey Pokey)
