Not every person backdoors to friends. When they backdoor to resellers, they may get $20-$30 per pair. If you backdoor a FSR that's a easy $200+. No brainer for some, especially when there is little chance you will get in trouble.I don't understand dudes who backdoor, man. You're still gonna make the sale no matter what, so how does it benefit you whether the shoes go to your homie or a customer? The way I see it, you're risking your job and getting nothing in return. It's not worth it to me and if dude gets mad cuz I won't sell the entire stock to him, he's not a homie.
$2-300 is less than a minimum wage employee's paycheck. Not worth it.Not every person backdoors to friends. When they backdoor to resellers, they may get $20-$30 per pair. If you backdoor a FSR that's a easy $200+. No brainer for some, especially when there is little chance you will get in trouble.
Plus when you backdoor, you feel like some god with early access to coveted shoes and selling off while making quick profits as well

Not worth it to a lot of people who make a decent income and have solid professional careers, but for those who work at retail footwear stores who make between $10-14 an hour working 35 hours a week with barely any savings and living check to check while using their retail job as a stepping stone to something better in the future, it's well worth it.$2-300 is less than a minimum wage employee's paycheck.Not every person backdoors to friends.

Example, say I backdoor 1 FSR of CC 11s this weekend and 1 FSR of Breds 1 next weekend, that's $600 in 2 weeks, probably more, or the same amount they make in 2 weeks. And you have to think, most working there are working part-time, as a college job or have a full-time job and just for the discount.$2-300 is less than a minimum wage employee's paycheck.Not every person backdoors to friends.

Especially, when your in college. Legit some dudes give you "God" status. A good friend of mines was a part-time assistant manager at Hibbetts in college. Dudes would be legit willing to do his papers for guaranteed tickets for JordansNot worth it to a lot of people who make a decent income and have solid professional careers, but for those who work at retail footwear stores who make between $10-14 an hour working 35 hours a week with barely any savings and living check to check while using their retail job as a stepping stone to something better in the future, it's well worth it.$2-300 is less than a minimum wage employee's paycheck.Not every person backdoors to friends.

But part of the appeal, as sonicjai alluded to above, is that those who backdoor get an uplifted ego because of the "service" they provide.
Funny you mentioned dudes willing to do papers for tickets. From '09-'11, I had a couple buddies who were in grad school. Both of them couldn't write a research paper if their life depended on it. Every two weeks it seemed like, they had a paper due. I wrote their papers 90% of the time until they graduated and got their Masters degrees. Their payment to me? You guessed it. Every time a coveted Jordan released, they both fell in line with me and my then fiance and copped me a pair. So for the SpaceJams, Cool Grey 11s, Concords, BC 3s, WC 3s, TB 3s, Black/Red 6s, Flint 13s, Playoff 13s, etc I was guaranteed 4 pairs each and every time.Especially, when your in college.

I agree, it's not worth risking your job especially if you're a store manager. Store Managers at FTL make around $40K a year, which is okay for a single male unless you live in CA, NY, HI, where the cost of living is high. So I don't blame them for doing it in order to make easy $$ without much effort.The dude back dooring isn't the one making $10-14/hr. Chances are, it's the store manager and he's making well above $600 in 2 weeks. I'm just saying, anything less than a paycheck wouldn't be worth risking my job but that's just me.

Those too. It's difficult because it the manager everyone loves.There's store managers that have been backdooring kicks for years. The ones I've seen over the years treat their employees right so no one ever snitches...
