That's not their right to assume that people aren't buying to wear. What a customer does with their paid for product is their prerogative. With the exception of a few posters who blatant let it known they resell, people on NT wear their shoes FWIW.
I'm of the belief where it may be worth it to just start paying resale because I don't want to be one of those guys that hangs out at stores all day to kiss *** in order to get a pair *coughs* Concepts *coughs*. Atmos denied all week they were getting them. Threw a bull**** raffle up and hooked up a few usuals under the guise of legitimacy.
How do stores not get a full size run? Like does Nike really send shipments without every size?90% of these skateshops were too shady for this release and I personally don't agree with nike moving forward to only dropping sb's exclusively at skateshops. I mean I probably appreciate the shops that were more upfront with it "our pairs are only going to loyal vips or skateteam" than the skateshops that say "come sign up for our raffle sizes 4-13 and spend extra $20 to gain extra raffle tickets" and most of those sizes and pairs are already gone.
one local skateshop required you to spend $500 worth of their products to be on the list for a chance to cop. One local skateshop made you donate money to gain raffles, and one of my friends won and they called back again 30 mins later and said sorry you didn't win, we didn't receive any size 8 and no you can't get another size. Another local skateshop is seen wheeling in a cart of the travis dunks into FlightClub after asking people to spend money for extra raffle tickets. Another boutique that got them held an IG raffle and surprise surprise, a Stadium Goods employee won.

Nj mostly. Nyc skate shops few and far betweenThere were a bunch of skate shops in the NY/NJ area that rattled them with 1 free ticket and then would give you additional tickets based on how much money you spent in the shop, non refundable. Interesting concept but wonder how Nike would feel about it

Everyone a reseller nowadays, don’t let the anti resell talk on here fool you. It’s too convenient with the appsyeah there were a bunch in Jersey City with this raffle method but I didn't even bother. Figured there would be a crazy amount of raffles at each spot and I don't skate so I wasnt gonna drop a bunch of cash on kicks to risk losing out anyways. I liked them but I was ok missing out.
I would like to say I'd rather a skater win them over me but if we're keeping it real, it was probably 90% hypebeasts who just wanted to resell who entered

Edit: I see that vinotwofour already mentioned this. wonder how many hypebeasts dropped $200+ to lose the raffle
Local skate shop did a donation raffle. You donated money for a ticket and all money goes to a non-profit instead of them. I trust that they're running an honest raffle, but my opinion is a bit skewed since I've won from their store off a free raffle before.
If it's legit then I lowkey prefer this because it weeds out a lot of people. And if I lose at least it goes to a good cause.

Ouch, don't think I'd do that if I ever paid resell on a pair. Prefer the bandana look much more. These prices OD. Unless size 9 dips to 800-900 range, I'll just stick to copping ts x Jordans
