    Sent the shipping screenshot to wife. Ryan is my buddy that sent it to me.

    Her: What is that lol

    Me: Shipping for the Swoosh from Boston to here. It’s so big that he won’t ship and said you’d have to use U-Ship, the site the people on that show we used to watch used. That’s the quote from u-ship.

    Her: Ohhhh i see. Where would you even put this thing and why doesn't Ryan buy it himself lol

    Me: I was thinking front porch. And his shoe room is done. I helped him with it last year.

    Her: NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT.

    I feel like if Robbie from shipping wars shows up to your house with the giant swoosh; whatever shipping cost it was totally worth it.

    He dead. You'll probably get Jarrett and end up with 4 pieces of swoosh.

    I get why they are doing that and it's a cool way to pay homage to those days but on the flip side there is no hunt now. It's just go on StockX and buy it. You don't need to make a connection over there. Honestly that's why I'm geeked over these Nike puzzles. When I first got into this back in 2015 or whatever I was hunting down a lot of old stuff. StockX didn't exist and even if it did the stuff I was looking for isn't really on there bc ds pairs don't exist. So I was constantly talking to guy A who knew guy B who heard guy C may have a pair of Greystones in my size. That shit was fun. I haven't done that in a while bc I kinda got all of the old stuff that I want, well at least the pairs that aren't just a myth. For a while now it's been try SNKRS, go to StockX. Yawn. Now these puzzles come along and it's going to be fun trying to find them. I was messaging with Magdi (archive DNA) about it yesterday. He has one of the most insane collections in the world and even he is geeked over it. Text James Whitner yesterday to see if he could slide me some and he straight up told me "No, but thanks for understanding" lol.

    Yeah that would take me hours to make those connections to do all that, I used to do that when I wasn’t a family man and there is no time for me to do that without giving up time for my family which yeah isn’t happening

    Understood. Most of mine was at night after the baby goes to bed. She goes to bed around 9 and I'm up until midnight or later. People in the EU were sleeping so I'd hear back mid-day the next day.

    haha same for my wife. I don't go into the office until 10-11 so I normally wake up around 8:30 when G is crawling on me telling me to get up so being up until 12-1 doesn't kill me too bad. If I had to be up earlier, I wouldn't be able to be up late.

    3 pair total in the pack. I know the AM1 is limited to 6800 pairs, not sure on the other two. I assume they'll be limited too. They'll all be raffled off and most will be resold on the open market for way over retail. I know the AM1 is $300 retail, which is insane. All 3 will probably run $1500 resell total if I had to guess.
