    For the anniversary a and sitcm do they allow you to get more then one of the numbered shirts like the 5 year anniversary, or do you have to go back in line?

    The rule is usually 1 per sex per person.. so you can get 1 guys shirt and 1 girls shirt. thats usually applies to numbered shirts only. And after that you have to get back in line and then you can buy as many as you want.

    In Boston+MV they let you do one for yourself and one pick up (either sex).

    LA just likes to be different! (:

    That sucks its bs people buy it to jack up the price to 150-200 for a shirt I waited 8 hours and got my size but there was still 80 people behind me that probably missed out..and not to mention everyone in here trying to get the pick up

    The worst part is the guy selling all these shirts probably brought someone with him to buy extras. We have a few that do it here in Boston too. We know who the resellers are here.

    It's a dick move... Like next time ill see if people would be willing to kick in a little extra for the shirt to talk my sisters into waiting with me so I can do pick ups for people on here you know... I appreciate the help with the poster from you and would like to return the favor and stuff... It just upsets me lol even on here the posters that went and bought them to sell for 150 on here like I look at this as a community to help eachother out not to try and come up on one another

    Dont worry about the few, there is nothing we can do to stop it as people are always willing to pay lots of extra money. I do pickups of limited items once the line is thru. Boston is never as bad as LA which is good. Johnny has curbed the amount of limited items you can buy online which is helpful in stopping resellers.

    This is how I originally felt as well. However over time you go to events and realize nothing will stop resellers. Like Andrew said, we know who the resellers are and even some of the staff have a good idea. It's unfortunate but happens in any community that sells limited items.

    I remember when they would have exclusive shirts weeks after and there's be no issue lol now it's bigger so people exploit it more... When I was at the la event I was talking to johnny about jcaddict and the community with in it. I wonder why LA is worse with pick ups and stuff I was in line from 10:30 am and went into the store at 7pm if I went back in line to try and get a pick up They would have been sold out of the mens. Just unfortunate lol

    I just think LA has more of a line due to more fans of the brand being on the west coast and there is only one store there, where as we have 3 within an 1 1/2 hours of each other. LA I think is also easier for more people to get to out there and lets face it is alot bigger than Boston population wise. I think eventually it will be no pickups until everyone in line goes thru once. Which I wouldn't mind either.
