Just Don x Air Jordan 2

[spoonmanofthehour]

That's just capitalism bro. It's not like he's forcing kids to drink lead water. He's selling sneakers. If he can get someone to pay that $$$ then he will. It's not scummy just cause you don't like it. You clearly wanted a pair of the kicks...

Of course I wanted the kicks. I have the money, but I also won't be forced to buy TWO things I don't want either. Bottom lines, it is scummy to make someone buy one of your products just to get another one of the products that you really want; especially if someone drives hours to get there and doesn't know that ahead of time. People were able to buy the pack separately the first day...but they can't the second day. Say what you want, but that's scummy. People accept this crap so it exists.

Like any good business man, Don C saw an opportunity to put more guaranteed cash in his pockets and took it.
Sure, nobody's happy about it but if you were him wouldn't you try to capitalize on the hype as well?
He's not trying to make sneaker collectors happy, he's trying to get paid.
Nike just did the same making you buy a hat and pin for $300

Well, we have a different definition of what a good business man is then.

He's just a scummy hustler.

its just scummy because you didn't get your way bro

I want em too n these are just some of the games played

ill get em ... not even worried

Didn't Bbbloke work with Don C on the website? Or was he just sending cryptic messages? If the former, then the bundling of merch isn't surprising since Yeezy Supply does the same thing. Sucks for the consumer but good way to move product and f-over resellers.

No, that's not true. I can live without getting them. I have the blue pair and I am fine with that. I guess I'm alone thinking it is wrong for someone to force another $450 hat to get the pack that already has a hat. Jackets were sold out at the time, but even that I'm still not cool with. Buy my overpriced product so you can buy my other overpriced product.

Well, I'm not a reseller so he f-over me too, especially since I didn't know he was going to force my hand to buy the pack. He didn't do that on day 1. Well, I didn't bite. Just like the lame Jordan packs and Penny packs where they give you one good shoe and another crappy shoe. I will pass on that crap all day. It's just scummy.

Yeah but the Yeezy site had the option to purchase without the merch. Besides a lot of people wanted that merch because those had resell value too. And I don't think the JD site made you order merch to get the kicks this time around.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

Hey, I'm alone on this and that's cool. I've seen things get worse and worse over the years. This kind of stuff just gives them the green light to keep upping things. People accept it and here we are. Soon we will be at $1000 for two shoes in a pack.

So then you should think of Nike as a scammy hustler too for making you buy the hat and pin right?

And for the record, I don't like the fact that Nike or Don do this... It sucks
I could've had this pack reserved but passed because I didn't want the stupid hat and pin
at the same time though I can see why they'd do this... Because they can

They made you buy merchandise in order to have a chance to buy the tan yeezys

That's right, they are scummy too. You got it.

Maybe it's a blessing he forced my hand because we all know this pack shouldn't be $650.

Not too long ago we were getting Bin shoes with nice quality and it was far from these garbage prices and the forcing of ones hand.

But we all keep going back to Nike begging them to take our money . A multi billion dollar company!
Don C is just doing his hustle

I feel you. I wish we could go back to the days of no "hype" and people living with Ls but nope. People will do whatever it takes to get their hands on some sneakers. Can't blame capitalism for this one, this stems from materialism.

Ah well, no pack for me, unless I can get it without buying something else. I was already making an exception with the hat in the pack.

 

[memphissfinest]

I NEVER QUESTIONED THE BUSINESS MOVE OF HAVING PEOPLE BUY OTHER STUFF TO GET WHAT THEY WANT. THAT IS A GOOD BUSINESS MOVE.

IT'S THE FACT THEY FORCING YOU TO BUY TRASH. DON C KNOWS THAT HAT AND JACKET ARE DODO.

WHY NOT TRY AND PACKAGE IT WITH SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE DO WANT.

IF YOU CAN'T FIND SOMETHING TO PACKAGE WITH THE SHOES THAT PEOPLE WANT THEN YOU ARE ADMITTING THAT YOU MAKE NO OTHER PRODUCTS THAT ARE HOT ITEMS.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

DON C KNOWS THAT HAT AND JACKET ARE DODO.

You're cracking me up.

 

[Leonard Washington]

bundles run the world... ask google, apple, telecom/cable companies etc.

i get what your saying but it goes back to it being a good business move.

packing the 2s with an item that isnt selling will make him more money than packing the 2s with another hot item that will sell on its own

Like those garbage keychains he is having people buy to get the pack. Doo doo. [emoji]128169[/emoji]

 

[deezrsackolishus]

Its definately doo doo.

Haha

Cable companies are also losing customers because of those overpriced bundles too.

[spoonmanofthehour]

Good news is you got the pack. Bad news is you just played yourself by buying my garbage doo doo keychain which I made for 5 cents.

 

[supunc]

Don C didn't lose customers...more buyers than product...unless these or future bundles sit we can bank on seeing the forced packages continue...
