overslept 1.5 hours but clicked away on fta, ftl, eb and champs. Got through on champs with only a 4 minute timer, I'm extremely relieved.

TBH thats the best time to buy, the site traffic slows down and things actually begin to get processed
 
Looks like I struck out on FNL for the first time. Had to head out and run an errand and wasn't able to snag em in time. got an 11 and got the time on Eastbay. If this doesnt go thru, ill wait for a restock.

 there was only one pair left in my sz. i'm @ the register getting rung up and handing my money to the girl @ the register & the girl next to her working the other register said "that guy behind him came in here first" then i said "no he wasn't he was behind me in the line" then the girl proceeds to say "i saw him here first you'll have to take that up with my manager".the manager was the guy letting people in the store from the line and telling a dude working @ the register what sz.'s to pull from the back.@ this point i'm extremely pissed

 and just standing @ the register and the manager walks up and says yeah he was in line first referring to me & the girls still refused to sell me the pair and the manager says "i don't know what to do" i'm thinking to myself i can't believe what's going down.they obviously know the guy so i say f*ck it let dude have the 10 i'll 1/2 sz. up do you have a 10.5 & the girl says yeah so she starts to ring me up again and the dude worker that's pulling the shoes from the back walks up to the register & says "naw he can't get those put those behind the counter" i'm a chill dude but @ this point i was boarding loosing my cool & i said "you've already screwed me once are you going to just flat out screw me over?!".the girl seeing that i was starting to loose my s*it said unconvincingly "i'm sorry about that" & finally sold me the 10.5 i knew FNL was shady and held pairs but didn't know to this level.worse in-store release experience ever from the people to the store employees.

damn man where is this? I'm a laid back person when it comes to retail and food places, if you ever worked before you know how it is so I try not to give people a hard time or be disrespectful because i've been there and it sucks when someone treats you like garbage and you cant say anything because they are the customer etc, now in this situation I would have bugged the F out, like come on are you serious right now?! that's so f'd bro, man like yourself i'm a chill dude but when it escalates to another level like that I lose my temper and bug out

i'm glad you got your kicks man, that's some real grimey stuff though
 
Left the mall empty handed because people skipped the line at the time the mall opened but when I got home I checked out and got confirmation email on champs within 10 minutes of me being home.
 
FNL hit up my Credit Card 4 times, lol.. and only 3 credits.. maybe I will get lucky and that order will be processed.
 
I get the timer to check out on footlocker and I'm waiting only to get hit with a "We are sold out" FOH.
