Buying Major Releases online on Release Night

[kontraband1911]

so if you get a pair in your shopping cart do you secure that pair? or do you have to go thru the whole checkout process? i've never been able to cop online but im the type that clicks numerous times because i get impatient. also, when i tried to buy the playoffs online i managed to get a pair in my cart and clicked on the checkout but i received a message that said something along the lines of "your wait to check out is 6+ hours. please remain on this page until ____ time". and i wouldn't press anything on this screen but after about 15 min of waiting the page would refresh and crash. can ppl who actually scored a pair of playoffs online walk me through their process?

Use a good computer with a fast browser (safari, FF, ECT.) Stay calm and try not to make mistakes or double/triple clicking). Pray to GOD, JESUS, Allah, muhammad or whatever you believe in. Goodluck!

Pretty much this and even still the only pair I've ever been able to get are the Jordan 11 Low

Another tip is to follow the twitter feeds of all the online resellers. Generally the link hits twitter first.

yeah it's pretty much all luck at this point. the last pair i copped online were the pine green foams. anything else after that has been a waste of time. if you find someone who has the kicks in advance before the release and they only want an extra $40 bucks or so on top of retail, that might be your best move to save you the hassel. sad to say this is what the sneaker game has come too

 .... im going to get a PT job at footlocker, champs, footaction, finishline, etc, maybe that will help

All you need is luck and patience, especially when NDC crashes 3 times like it did with the Cement 4s.

I was able to cop raptors and foams online. I'm 16 so my dad doesn't let me camp out. just wake up 30 min before log into the site you decide to use. I have all my credit card info on the site. also my address. if it's a footlocker Site then you can go to the page of the shoe. click your size and wait for the timer to run down and CLICK ADD TO CART FAST!!!!!! the longest I waited was 45 min and you don't waste time entering info so it's easier. I also recommend not using wifi or laptop In case It crashes. I use a actual desktop, hope this helps!!

first post + grave dig + being in general where most not big on shoes = get ya flamesuit on.
