you're going to payment loop, and then you're going to get your info banned. Not worth it on this go IMO.

I tried with paypal and credit card and gave up, because I didn't want to get a bunch of charges and banned. I have all of those anyway. I was just thinking about going a whole size up.

Your referring to like the first year Jordans came out. My first recollection of Jordans was when a neighborhood dude had on Jordan 2s and I was in awe (1987). My second is my godmother buying me Fire red 3s -1988- when they came out in the 3rd grade, and all my classmates going crazy because i had JORDANS.
When you say Exclusivity is buying shoes that everyone else has, but others want and that Sneakercons are full of people with the same sneakers. You have to remember that Sneakercons is a place where sneakerheads/hypebeasts/resellers congregate so thats normal for them to have similar shoes.
10-15yrs ago you would see the same thing you see now. I attended Dunk exchanges and similar events in the early 2000s and SBs were king. 20yrs ago you would see more diversity yes, because the internet didnt factor in as much and Jordans would be the most popular shoes. All we had in the 90s was Eastbay and word of mouth.
You mentioned Sneakerheads and Absolutely we buy what we like ultimately. And as with any other collection based hobby rare/limited items are coveted. But not everyone on this board or at a sneakercon is a sneakerhead. And back in the day if you liked having "fresh" kicks it didnt mean you were a "sneakerhead".

The internet ruined a lot TBH lol. For example, I remember when you would have to pay extra for a pair of Jordans to get them early or after they sold out... cost for a 125 dollar pair? 175 ...now its rent money

Jordan's were just another sneaker, and you could have turned heads with anything new. Jordan's didn't have prestige that they have now back then in the early days. Jordan didn't have a legacy, he wasn't even a champ until the VI. People had the same reaction of Bo Jackson's. I had people asking me about Lotto's and British Knight's. I was one of if not the first person in my school with British Knights. It was a totally different era, especially in New York. That's why when they retroed the Jordan I and 3 they weren't received well.
And a Dunk exchange is for Dunks. And SB's were a niche crowd and was built on hype. That wasn't the norm.
An actual Sneakercon would have been totally different. It would have been what was rare and old. Just like on this Forum the retro thread has gone through phases. Now it's just the Air Max forum, because Nike added hype to Air Max's with Air Max Day.
So no, today wasn't comparable to yesterday.
Because today people don't mind being one of 50 people wearing Yebras at a sneakercon.

one did but all the others got nothing. A guy in the discord group chatted with adidas and they said neither restocked and all would be cancelled.

oops.. i have like $2000 ghost charges each on both of my cc's

it could possibly. Because they're all ghost charges and you spamming Submit Payment, and eventually adidas payment system is gonna flag your account and your info for the "spam" and ban any future orders with that info. You won't be able to order anything from adidas for a while, not shoes, not clothes, not socks, not toilet paper. I'm speaking from experience and experiences many people in here had.
