Smaller size Yeezys are worth  more due to ladies wanting them. They were low key happy as hell for that size swap. I'm sure I could have asked for more because they listed my size 9 for $1100 but there really wasn't much I wanted or didn't have. My original goal was to get black and white OVO and just tack on maybe $100 cash.

Centre is the best really?...no disrespect but dfw needs so much more for such a big area when u go to different cities and see their sneaker scene we are so behind but I guess it could be worse...I always hear crap from other people in other states that at least y'all have a niketown but it's the worst Niketown rollin'

Yep! I mostly just happy we got somewhere to make trades and not have to deal shipping. At this point I don't mind grabbing an off size if I strike out on my size during a major release. And they are pretty fair. I know they gotta get a some profit

If you're someone who buys mostly Jordan's and other basketball shoes, then I guess I see your point.

Centre currently has the best selection around of runners and other shoes that you don't have to wait in line for or fight crowds just to get a raffle ticket. They're doing the best job locally of giving people options (Diadora, NB, asics etc.).

I agree though. Dallas is definitely behind but it's gotta' be extremely difficult for a shop owner when the majority of consumers buys the same Jordans week after week.

my issue is that DFW is the land of jordan zombies i guess i look for diversity but there is none here....at least in dallas there is a Centre tarrant county /fort worth does not have one store that sells nb,diadora,asics,saucony like Centre matter of fact we dont have a house of hoops in fort worth but dallas county has 3 i dont feel i should have to drive over an hour just to cop kicks in a major market like fort worth we need more all around and not these bootleg resale shops either

sports sole only good for GR jordan folks.... nothing exclusive goes there we dont have an adidas store anymore so to cop yeezys you gotta deal with footlocker family dirt,still corrupt villa/dk stores new name aint change the employees that work there raffles are 100 percent rigged and let me not forget blk mkt the worst of the worst all yeezy releases are back door there....
