doesn't really bother me as much as the rejecting my payment thing they do. I usually do all of my FNL orders on a CC that doesn't mess with my real money anyways.

Yea I know, but it doesn't stop me from taking a chance specially on a restock. From my history with them, 9 out of 10 I get through. Plus if they cancel, i usually get an extra $20 reward for all my trouble.

They usually send me a coupon, which I don't want since it requires me to spend money on something I don't really want as much as what I missed out on.
Different scenario if they sent me a $20 gift card or something. I don't mind the free stuff.

Ask them for a electronic gift card not a winners circle reward that has to be sent out to their printer / mailer and takes 30-60 days to obtain.

this reminded me of the restock Finishline had last year in February 2013 except that restock had A LOT more of a selection. To name a few they had White Cement 4's , Playoff 12's, Olympic 6 , Olympic 7 , and what surprised me was Last Shot 14s . It was just a random and crazy restock I couldn't believe the selection they had. I actually scooped up a pair of White Cement 4's off that restock. It was a good day to say the least. This restock was weak compared to that one.

oh I know it was someone in the stock room..When I worked at a shoe store years ago we would swap things out and have a friend come in and buy it for cheap.

So what did they ship?
The only one I saw in my size was the Laney, which I thought about, but I haven't worn the original ones I got.

im thinking only the GR type shoes were shipped meaning taxis, laneys, powder blue 3s, etc. the 3lab5s, gammas, and whatever else was limited might have been cancelled.
that's my assumption based off of only 1 person mentioning they got shipping and that was for taxis lol

We'll find out today on my end.
I successfully ordered the 3LAB5's in a size 13. Received shipping confirmation, and according to UPS, is on the truck for delivery today.
I did notice that my pair is coming from the exact same location (Indianapolis, IN) as their central warehouse, so I'm not sure if its actual store stock from Indy, or leftover warehouse stock that they found.
Hopefully I won't get the 'ol switch-eroo'. I guess we'll find out later today.

Yep, the illusive size 13...hate it.
I can fit comfortably in a size 14 if needed, and sometimes will purposefully aim for that size and just add an insole for really limited kicks. I've had better luck trying for a 14 (Bred 1's for example) than a 13.
Got lucky w/ the FNL restock. It's one of the perks of being an early bird. Always check and refresh M-F before leaving for work around 6:50-7:00. They appeared in the search before FNL tweeted it.
Another tip for FNL...if you stay signed in and have WC rewards, just always have something in your cart valued @ $20 (use insoles, shirts that won't go out of stock, etc.) and already have your WC reward "applied". Simply go through the checkout process where you add the WC/coupon, then proceed to go back to shopping. It saves you time when checking out, and still get to use your WC. When you check out for the kicks, simply remove the $20 items. If you REALLY want a pair of kicks and are having a problem with them accepting your CC, you can do the same w/ gift cards. Add some items that total the price of the shoes, go through checkout, apply gift cards (and WC rewards), then go back to shopping. When 8AM hits, add the shoes, remove the unnecessary items, and your WC and gift cards will still be there. Simply hit "Submit". Saves SO much time when trying to checkout as FNL doesn't use the checkout system like NDC, where its first to checkout...not first to add to cart.
I've had pretty good success using this method. The only time it DIDN'T work (that I can remember) was with the original 3LAB5 drop and didn't use the GC method (last minute change of mind after seeing some on feet vids). Got to the checkout screen....and card declined.
Good luck to others...hope we actually get the shoes we ordered.
