You get any Denims? I struck out bigger than s**t at all 3 locations. I usually go to the Baybrook HoH because its closest for one and they seem halfway decent. The manager Greg seems pretty fair, too. Even though i never win crap there lol. Northline seems ok as well. Galleria HoH though? Pshhhh, they seem just shady to me ... Could be entirely wrong though.

Usually it's 10, but all 3 stores held them till 6. Like you, I f'd and showed up 10 mins late for the Bred 11s and my shoes had been sold. Learning lesson for sure, but I wasn't too broke up because I got more than my share of 11s.

WAS ABLE TO SCOOP OFF NDC ON THE DENIMS NO PROBLEM. ACTUALLY GOT PAIRS FOR OTHER NIKETALKERS AS WELL.
I CAN SAY FOR A FACT THAT IF YOU ARE ENTERING RAFFLES AT GALLERIA FOR LIMITED RELEASES, YOU WASTED YOUR TIME, EFFORT AND GAS. FOR RAFFLES, NORTHLINE AND BAYBROOK ARE YOUR BEST BET.

learned that the galleria was weak from the cork fiasco
I never shopped at the galleria so I had no idea how corny they were
I only go there for the chicks anyway

What happened with the corks?
I had a guaranteed ticket for the asg force maxe and bc of some chick ringing me up the wrong items I had a hold put on my card.
I had to leave for 10 mins to get it straightened out with my bank and when I came back my pair was gone.
Manager said she couldnt do anything for me.

Speaking. Of craigslist I saw posts of one guy having a pretty much a full Size run of corks. Had a pick full of the asking 900 a pop.
He. Always posts in all caps.
Browsing through cl he resells large stocks of shoes.
Every post he makes has at least 7 boxes of pairs stacked together.
Wonder if this guy has the connect to gallo or even works there.

I think he's the manager, the nter told me his name but don't care enough to look it back up
but yeah, dude is weak as hell
between him selling all the pairs and hoh having somewhere around 10 employees there's nothing left
I don't buy anything outta there off principal whether its the only store who has it or not
most of the shoes I like aren't limited anyway

we really have to do something to get more shoes into the city
the h is too big for damn near one store to control the entire market
damn all these sneaker summits, time to focus on some fairness

Yea man I completely agree. But we just have to be lucky we have 3 HOH, even though some may seem shady. I've been a member a long time, don't post as much but trust me I'm always on NT. fairness is hard even with raffles and tickets. Money talks and there is ways around everything. I literally live 2 mins from HOH baybrook and I just hit that spot for tees and occasional air max 1s or something easy. I hate the way the "shoe game" that's what people like to call it, has changed so much it's ******ed. Honestly with shoe releases now I just use Nike.com. I'm only 24 but started collecting when I was 14 and it's only gotten worse over the years. I'm done with Jordan brand, never got into kds/Lebrons/Kobe's. all I rock now is air max/roshes/ janoskis.

Never shipped at HOH Galleria an probably never will. My connect is batting around 98% as far as getting me releases. But I do know HOH Galleria is extra shady. My boy came off with a pair of corks & didn't even enter raffle. He just put $ in someone's pocket and he was guaranteed. He even caught the "random" Royal 1 restock that nobody else seemed to know about. He tells me that he's pretty tight with the manager there and he's always guaranteed at least 1 pair.
Active Athelete is straight but they can be kind of greasy too. They're still holding Yeezy 2's, Galaxy Rookies, and who knows what else in the back, those 2 I know for sure. Offered to sell me Y2s for $2500 a few months ago but I declined. . But they have looked out for me too so I can't be that salty towards them.
