How are they able to restock like that and sites like Footlocker and Eastbay can't? Are these B grades or something?

a lot of sites do this to help move product. On release date they wont make the entire stock available...when the first group of shoes sells through quickly, people want them badly if they missed out. thats when they hit you with a FSR restock and the hype is still there

I'm pretty sure FNL pulls stock from any one of their stores that has stock available for their restocks.  I got my second pair of VIIs sent from a Hattiesburg, MS store with a store receipt and the typical online receipt.

they are all about numbers. If I am given any attitude for any reason, I just don't go back there. They got mad at you and now your advertising for them

my manager was explaining this to me. typically when a new shoe is released, the goal is to sell at least over 75% of that shoe within a certain number of days(i forgot the exact number) inorder for that shoe to be considered successful. this will also be the basis of what the store will recieve in the future(example: if the bordeaux's do not sell well then the store may not recieve many cardinals coming up).

If that's true, I don't understand why my local footaction ordered TWELVE pairs, not twelve of each size, twelve total. Every hyped up release sells out quick here, not sure why they are worried about having stock sitting. They're probably doing it so they can rape craigslist or something.

from the sounds of it, everyone who wanted these got their pair for the most part. wish every release was like this.
