Grins ear to ear, in short though, the one thing you will never see @a-friend talking or complaining about again is,

"man I entered every raffle in my city, all 16 and no luck, took me 3+hours just for nothing, plus 50-75 in gas cause I burned a whole tank, then I woke up @6am and went on EB and clicked add to cart from 7am-10am wasting another 3+hours for nothing, then I went BACK to the malls doing unclaimed raffles, @10am one @1pm and one @6pm all in different cities and I showed up to all when the line was already to deep, so now it's 8pm at night and I have no shoes, my WHOLE day is gone, and I'm salty"

+50 thank you I will have another next grab!
I like my time though, for sure. Who cares who eats on my extra on top, I've eaten too because I saved time and day. That's worth $250 on a slow Tuesday at work for me, a Saturday though priceless man, priceless

I hear you but I took up for you and for you to run back in the thread beating your chest like you won the superbowl is mad disrespect to the cats who are in messed up situations with employees stiffing ppl out their hard earns. Be humble my brother. I'm happy for you to say the least

Do not wanna hear about the missed RSVPs and the people waiting for raffle calls.

See ya'll Saturday.
 
One of the FTL I stopped at today …I literally had to wait for the Mgr to run and get some more Raffles tickets from Who knows where for like 20mins..

It was 11am on a Weds….

All i kept thinking was how many tickets are in one whole raffle TICKET ROLL….. Gezzzz  #DEAD

Got cool with a customer at my job only to find out he's a manager at a major FL in my city. Let's just say these Carmine's will be delivered to me on sat and future releases. There is a GOD. No more headaches. Finally

Thats what happens when people take their whole family. 

People bring new borns to get tickets...
 
Didn't even bother picking up raffles since they're all rigged I've enter many raffles with my friends and never got one call
I'll just cop online Saturday

Cmon bro. I forgot who I was taking up for and to comment like that isn't right.

And that map is misleading. If you stay in a small city and got like 3 stores with 24 pair it will be easy to strikeout and for all those who be saying 300+ means nothing but a bigger city. Same effect just do so light homework and you should be good

Disrespect? You lost me there, please explain. Beating my chest?, Nah man this is a forum I'm sharing my experience and welcoming feedback.  And man, I appreciate if you thought you were taking up for me, but I don't need taking up for. I have no problem with one persons definition of a connect as opposed to mine. If anyone agrees with me cool, if they don't cool. It doesn't mean we aren't respectable to each other at the end of the day, right?  Some are, some aren't, I try to be

A connect to me is a person who can get you the shoe albeit the fee is somewhat reasonable. People don't do stuff for free that's crazy it's that way but we do have a few stand up ppl but that's rare. Think about when more exclusive kicks drop it will pay dividends

I had a real connect back in the day 2000-2005! My man would hold the shoes for me in the back. I'd come in an hour after release pay for my shoes and leave! Just had to call him a week B4 they dropped and had to make sure to talk kicks and Jordan with him before I left store! Good stand up dudes like him don't show up much this day and age.

I can see where the extra $50 spent in your case is not a big deal! Time is money, amen to that! After breaking down all the running and strikeouts...I get it.
 
missing this release when trying everything you can

i think the real problem will be due to people doubling or tripling for themselves though

Yeah I had a manager at ftl like 2011 I think when I finally got back into collecting again. They threw me off with the whole fusion phase and what I wanted wasn't coming out so I quit the game like 06 until the end of 2010. She looked out for me mainly because I was loyal. She got got fired over some crazy stuff. That's how it is...you get a plug lose a plug. It's all good I just look out for people who look out for me. Sometimes I give without expecting anything in return. That's how this collecting thing should go. People just caught up with what they have and other's don't. I couldn't care less if this is a massive GR I like it enough to buy regardless of hype. Wish I still had her around for releases like this and it's only gonna get worst.

I'm just trying to figure out... Where do you pee when you camp? If I could figure this out... My life would be so much easier.
 
looking like way more people in my area are after these than even the concord lows like it's not even close, still have to double up no matter what
