Just knocked off work. Rang Footlocker Swanston St and the guy on the other end of the phone said there are around 40+ people lining up. I GIVE UP!

Frustrating isn't it?

Megatran, I passed by George St on my way home (and was planning to head back in around 8pm) and they're all sold out.
The frustrating part was I can _tell_ that at least half the people lined up are just doing to so resell. I want a pair to wear but I'm not paying what's likely to be $500-600 to one of these guys.

The first one. That site is known for selling fakes, though.

Thought that site is from the legit list
That is frustrating. Give it 24-48 hours & they'll pop up on eBay.Originally Posted by dirge
Looks like I'll just have to settle for these White Infrareds.
My thoughts exactly.

I'm not against reselling as such; what frustrated me is seeing that those lining up will pretty much sell for 2-3 times retail & experience tells me that a lot of those doing so don't really have any interest in them & are just lining up to make money out of those who do. I'll resell if I'm able to grab a second pair, but usually sell _cheaper_ than what the market is asking so as to help someone out while reducing my own (significant) cost of buying a pair.
Hope you get a pair of the White/Infrareds, Megatran. I'm passing, but got them back in 2010. They should be easy enough to grab; many stores are getting them. I ended up buying a pair of the Infrared 10s tonight; they've been in stores for a few weeks & I like them but passed as I was keeping the $ for the 6s...
The best legit online store for sneakers is RMK in Hong Kong; they've already sold out of pre-orders.

Been lining up since 5am at my local Footlocker. There's probably about 20 or so people here. Looks like I'll be getting a pair of the White Infrareds in my size.
