y'all cats are mad. Can't even talk to someone right. Smarten up son...
Common sense tells you you don't LOOSE money on business deals. So you're suggesting we spend all this money at a specific store buying shoes, and other items you don't want/need, pretending to "be cool" with someone you don't know about, or care for, all so they can possibly set aside some limited releases for you in the future in case you want one? Common sense should tell you that's a bad deal. If you add up the collective amount you spent to get your "connect", you probably aren't paying much less than reseller prices.
BTW, W T F is "real recognize real"? There's nothing real about this deal. You're using the employee to get what you want. How is that "real"?
How do you Loose money? I keep it tight in my pocket. Not LOOSE.
But on the real, how the hell is that losing money? If I am going to buy a shoe cleaner which I buy normally, and it will ensure me getting a limited pair of shoes that I can FLIP for an extra hundred or so, why not? You make no sense. I have a Swoosh account and have a good handful of stores that have already locked my pack down. I didn't spend a dime. It's all from me buying my kicks from places that I consistently go to. They know I'm good for the kicks, so all I have to do is make a quick phone call and I'm set.
And you don't understand the term real recognize real? When I walk into a store, most store employees I talk to already know I'm there to buy kicks by my tone, demeanor and appearance. I don't have to suck up or smooch to anyone. They hold stuff for me because they know I am good for it when I ask. I usually double up too.
The whole point of me posting that is to give noobs like you an idea as to what can help you get some help from store employees. Don't worry about me, I'm already well into my employee benefits. Keep paying retail and camping out buddy. I'll stick to my Swoosh discount and my employee 50% off sales.
