I don't know why Finishline stopped doing the christmas raffle
How exactly do the raffles work... Is it like back when they started and you have to go to the store and get ticket or is it all done by app now?

they are proceeding with the app raffle. no going back.
the bougie ass white people dont want to see us negroes congregating all up in the malls
You do it through the app at a certain time, and they give VIP customers a 3 minute head start. You have like two or three stores you're limited to pick from and you can only win once. If you don't pick up your shit after you win they can start moving you down the list.
Finishlines was you do it through your Finishline account for one Finishline.
Yep. You show up with your ID, they write your name and number down and YOU have to pick them up if you win.
That some bullshit, if anything it's just going to decrease people's chances because how are they going to set it up for multiple stores?

I believe this will be the norm now
Ok. So they do it in person and via the app? Cool.. Guess imma have to go this route for the black toes. Really hope they have a re-up on Shattered Backboards.
I haven't come across any footlocker's, finishline's, Champs or footaction's that do the app thing
I assume they saying they will all soon start going that route.I haven't come across any footlocker's, finishline's, Champs or footaction's that do the app thing
ehh we'll see...I hope you're right tho...then again you said the same thing about the low bred XIs...I got lucky af winning 2 raffles cuz I sure as hell couldn't get them online
I doubt it will be released everywhere by then. I could see them doing it for the Space Jams.
And it's done through the Champs, Footlocker and Footacton apps, not in store.
Keep in mind that if you're a reseller you're a VIP customer, so they get the advantage.
I'm one at Champs and Footlocker.
I can't say it's not inevitable, I just haven't seen it and it comes with it's own set of issues. We'll see
When did I say those would be easy
If you put in effort you would get a pair, but you weren't going to walk in a store at 2pm on Tuesday and get them.
I go by prior history.
IX's have never been that hard to get. Even olives which people claimed to want weren't that hard and didn't have a high resell value.
Thats the other thing.. few years ago i could get a cat like you to get a pair and pay no more than a $50 up charge for the courtesy.. Now niggas can grab em and sell em ATLEAST $75 more on secondary market. Shits a joke now man.

I am a VIP member.
Trying to get the kids footlocker cats to hook me up with the house of hoops/footlocker cats so I don't have to do none of that app/raffle stuff. Right now I can go to kids footlocker and get my boys stuff before the store even opens. Trying to get that for myself
Which ever one of y'all asked me about that bot shit my cousin's man did, man that shit isn't even worth it in MY opinion. My OTHER cousin wanted the 750's so I told him to call our cousin who's man has the bot. He calls me back and gives me the run down.'
- Son wants $550 because 750's sell for more
- $100 of that goes towards getting the bot "up and running" whatever that means
- After he gets your pair you send the other $450
Ya cousin's mans a dub like this Adidas Confirmed app. Shit sold out in 8 seconds. Shit that be having me laughing is the way they setup the fail.
Joint be like
"You gotta be quick"
"You ready"
8 seconds later
"Sorry, your a dub"
I sold my flint greys and flint grey/blue years ago and regret now; the 9's are comfortable as hell.
Yeah, back then they were comfortable.
I had some from 2002 also and loved them.
For the past few years they haven't been. The air units that are supposed to be in the forefoot and heel have felt nonexistent.
Good looks I won't bother copping again then.

I don't even bother with the app. When those Black 350's drop I'm out there MOBBIN' with a bitch or 2 to every spot holding a raffle from Manhattan up to White Plains and I'm gonna see what's good. I heard those shits drop black friday though so ughhhh that release is gonna be filthy
I give up on them Yezzys. It's Tim weather anyway..lol
That it is my brother, that it is!
