AJ III Cardinal Feb 19, 2022

That was me... Not sure I just just looked in snkrs and seen the $200 clicked the button and got in line.... PayPal charge shortly after. Been a good week

I've noticed on some releases when I'm patient and don't try asap, let a few minutes go by... I get better odds... I was on the fence with these and only tried to see if I'd hit.

I know that works sometimes with the draws.

…But on FCFS, it makes no sense.

Naw it works with fcfs too, it might be cancelled/declined orders.... Definitely wasn't a draw today though. I hit patents late too the other day... Even marinas was a few minutes after.

What's funny is I've legit stopped caring as much lately, about any release... If I hit I hit, and its been working out pretty well

A Zen attitude.

Guess it’s not really first come, first serve then.

That’s how I am too, if I don’t hit oh well onto the next release.

Quality isnt bad at all

There is one reason why I would prefer Cardinal over Katrina’s and that is the white sock lining. Can’t stand it, along with all white soles

 

[Mamba4life]

I think the big difference between resellers now and back in the day is that back in the day, you had to know a little bit about a shoe, go to stores, actually put in some effort to be an effective reseller. You actually had to kinda be into shoes. Now? Stock X, Goat, apps, and raffles have made it to where you don't have to do know or do jack squat to be a reseller. Throw your name in the ring, win the shoe, post it on a site...rinse and repeat. I'll bet there are people reselling Jordans who have never put a pair on their feet.

i missed the CAMP-out days for Jordan Release

 

[allergic2broke]

I'm still taking Katrinas over these but to each his own.

I miss the mom and pop shops!

I'm not a big a 3 guy (Fears are the only other pair I own) but the Cardinals pulled me in, they are that good imho.

Bonus is I'm getting some sunset 5 vibes, another one of my all-time favs.

Cheers.

Good luck bro. I hope cop a pair at retail. I started crate digging and buying vinyl. It fulfills that void. The sneaker game isn’t the same. I love the color scheme and the shape. I thought about buying these, but I thought about the vinyl I could buy with that price. I don’t need the headache anymore. I know I have reached OG status when I would rather buy a pair of Wallabees Clarks before I purchase a mean color of white Jordan IIIs.

Especially a pair of Wallabees in a mean colorway!
I hear you, I've gotten back on Wallabees the past year or so.

 

[Davey Magoo]

Had an interesting convo with a Nike Store employee today, who was surprisingly pleasant to talk to.

I asked him if they had gotten any Cardinal 3s in store and he said, “No and I don’t think we’re going to either.” He said they’d been getting stock of most of the major recent releases, but didn’t think they’d be getting this one. Didn’t explain why.

At this point I feel like Nike simply needs to delay releases until they get their supply chain problem under control. Or at least push them back until they know that all the major warehouses/stores have their shipments.

 

[spiderjericho]

Thank God...they released the Black Cements a few years ago. If only they had retroed the White Cement back then as well. Any OG that retroes going forward is north of $300 on resell.

Wallies will last favorite, something you cant say about a pair of 3s.

 

[wombat]

Was able to get an unclaimed pair. They’re nice but would’ve been better with a matte finish

 

[spiderjericho]

Love that Cardinal Red. Making me Jelly. Hopefully, they drop to below $250 so I can negotiate a $240 buy me now

Looks like you had to buy a few pairs on the secondary market, why didn’t you just manifest wins on them when they dropped retail?

 

[spiderjericho]

^^^Wow. That was mad flagrant.

I'm being real and saying I'm going to have to manifest it from the resale market.

I think he was saying that in regards to the conversation shawndavinci was having with another NTer in here.

The NTer was talking about the struggle of getting these 3s/being realistic and how he had a feeling he’d miss. Shawn said something along the lines of being positive and speaking it into existence and it will happen no doubt. Lol clearly he didn’t follow his own advice.
