you got lucky, i was quick as well but that doesnt mean jack.

so far i think im the only one who got the SOLD OUT for a size 11 at around 12:25. i fully checked out and it told me they were gone and in reality they werent even close to selling out in that size. If that isnt the biggest screw over for this release on NDC then i dont know what is.

I got these and if this is a taste of how the rest of the year is going to go, I'm going to be skipping a lot of releases. Not a big fan of the other OG 4 colorways and unless they re-release the Oreo IVs this will do it for me.

I was working at NTLA during that release. We got a ton of stock on that shoe and dont remember anyone camping out for them. There were even some left at the end of the day. I bought them all, like 5 pairs, (couldnt use my discount) and put em on ebay. made some decent change

I was about to bring that up. I was able to get two pairs of 99's at the Niketown (Costa Mesa/Newport Beach) when it was still around without camping. Just went in that evening and picked them up. The shoe game now is definitely on another level. 
  
Yeah back in 2000 when the Space Jams came out, there was only like 5 people in line...Was in and out in less than 5mins. I even remember the Pearl Foams collecting dust and going on sale for $99 back in '02...Times have definitely changed for the worse.

passing on the black/cement's??? those are my grails
not a fan of Fire Red CWs - IIIs, IVs, Vs - so that's an easy pass for me

the white/cement, black/cement are must haves

i agree. i never had to camp out for shoes before 05. i still refuse to unless absolutely necessary.. times have changed..
 
also for the price people are "asking" for is the same price as a better than decent pair of 99' retros 
laugh.gif
 times. have. changed.
 
Oh yeah btw, for you guys expecting a RESTOCK on these online, dont bet on it.
the few sizes you might see that pop back up online are RANDOM and are from CANCELLED/DENIED CC and DC purchases.

There might be a few restocks in select Niketowns but that's about it. If you're down in Orlando, you probably have a good shot at finding a restock of these as the All Star Game is next week along with the Galaxy Foams.

Don't know where y'all live but back in 2000 for the Space Jams, there was about 100+ people at Champs out here in the Bay Area (Sun Valley Mall in Concord). That's the only time I have ever lined up for a pair of Jordans so I remember it well. Me and 4-5 other dudes showed up around 3am and Champs opened at 10am. By 9am there were over 50 in line and right before they opened at 10, another 50+ showed up and it was crazy. Everyone pushed up against the gate and they were only letting 5 people in at a time. People were acting like animals then, it's just 100x worse now. Since then I've bought all my J's online and never had a problem.

Hope it's not Mar 1st form SNS but as long as I get them I'm happy....

should get mine from DeadStock the 23rd...My dude at the FA here also so hooked me up as well so 4prs total....

The local mall here decided to open all stores at the same time to cut crowds and resellers down
 
Not really faithful about these restocks... might just go get that deal from my local mom and pop.. 2 for 470... hopefully i can get rid of one of the pairs for what i pay for it.. can't believe i'm even considering this.
