Ghost chairs are the lamest thing ever. Do people actually get in line behind those? Imo, if people ever see em, you should just grab them and put them outside of the line

ghost chairs sounds like something a millennial would do

You couldn't pay me to camp. Between missing out on quality sleep and almost getting into fights with ****boys who cut the line is all too much of a hassle for me. Unless you're a starving college student or someone who has all the time on their hands because they're currently not working, i see no reason to even bother camping. I don't even like standing in line at Chipotle, let outside a shoe store for hours on end.

Anyone got a line on these? Foot Locker is doing a live raffle tomorrow with this triple black caged but I cant make it and not really about that life. I know they dropped on a few sites but keep missing. Any help is highly appreciated.

Not just your philosophy. Actual meaning of friendship is not profitting from your buddies. But whatever

I never understood this logic. So if you have a restaurant, and your friend eats there he should only pay for the ingredients and not the labor and overhead? If he was your real friend he would pay full price to support your business.

Paying full price retail is different than paying full price resale.

If you were to sell a friend of pair of let's say Copper v2, and the current market rate is $550-600, you can sell for that much or you can lower the price to $300-350, still profit while hooking your friend up. Better yet, if you really wanted to give it to him, you'd sell for retail plus tax.
 
As a good friend buying, you should always want to support your friend and pay them what they want. However if you're the seller, you should never want to maximize profit out of your closest friends. You can always meet in the middle for as a happy medium, or get them back at another time when they're not expecting it.

I'm surprised as well lol. I usually head out around 5-6 am and I am guaranteed a pair in my size for other drops. This time around I'm shocked they're actually this many people for this pair.

I wouldn't want my friend to miss out on a business opportunity. That is taking food off his table for my selfish gain. **** that, I'll let him do his thing and I'll just wear CB 1.0s. If he has 50 pairs, then it would be different because it wouldn't be a significant hit and I'd feel less guilty.
