Sometimes, it depends how close you live to their shipping warehouse. I know for Eastbay, some folks pay for groud shipping and get it within 1-3business days. And remember expedited shipping does not affect your processing time. You will get what you paid for after the shoes are processedOriginally Posted by fireflyandfia
damn how you getting your packs tomorrow and I paid an extra 12$ to get 2 day air

So will nike accept the 17's back and give you a product voucher for half or would they want you to return the carmine's aswell? Knowing them they would want you to return the entire pack

Seriously....why should JB worry about quality.......name ONE other product that people get out of bed early and stand in line in front of the storewaiting for......and pay OVER retail for......everyone in the game is either part of the problem, or part of the solution as far as quality is concerned.Originally Posted by TJ Detweiler
It's people like you that make JB not care about quality.
If you are really concerned with JB quality, then be part of the solution: don't buy.
I buy with both fists, but I don't consider myself part of the problem, because as far as I'm concerned, there is no problem. I am a NYC DC 9construction painter and I wear my J's down to the nub. They hold up under extreme duress as far as I'm concerned.....I beat those boys like a bad dog,and when I'm done with them, I toss them and demote another pair from casual duty to work duty. Why complain about quality? Buy or don't buy. Buy ordon't buy. Buy or don't buy. There is nothing else to do.

Well for one another product people buy and waited in line for was the wii, and PS3, not too sure about the xbox 360 but as the consumer, you have theright to ask for quality. Read what the nike representative says "I would like you to know that Nike stands behind its products for material ormanufacturing flaws." No one is making me buy anything which I agree upon but don't tell me the brand stands for quality and give me a piece of%#%$." $310 is alot for a pair of shoes and we as the consumer would like the price to reflect the quality. What if the new car you bought all of suddenbreaks down? Do you have the right to complain or are you just going to say eff it why complain? Companies only look to make money (obviously) If there are nocomplaints about the horrible crasftmanship they try to pull, why should they change it? If the consumers don't act on it, they won't, simple as that.

whats the email to contact them? good thing you are speaking up. im not sure if it will make a difference but if enough of us complain maybe something willhappen. who knows but its better to speak up than to let them steam roll us with crap. i have not recieved mines (arriving on the 30th) so hopefully theywont be so crappy as everyone is saying....i actually wanted the 17s since my OGs are beat to death...just tried repairing the soles with shoe goo hahaha theymade the bottom soles way too thin...my damn carbon fiber has burned through already too.
wouldnt it suck if those who ordered on release night/day did not get their orders and those who ordered on restock did? i hope finishline gets their $%+straight!

George, you kinda just proved TJ's point... the only way for the consumers to act on it in a meaningful way is to stop buying the products. Ifyou complain to Nike, but then keep buying the products when you KNOW they're low-quality, then the company has no incentive to listen to your (andeveryone else's) complaints. Such complaints become disingenuous. Also, every company claims to care about the quality of its products. You should takesuch claims with a grain of salt. Its like every politician claims to be honest, and every cable news station claims to be fair and balanced. It meansnothing. Its a tagline meant to fool those who are stupid enough to be fooled by such claims. But you're lucky enough to have an opportunity to actuallytake this particular product out of the box, inspect it, and even try it on before you purchase it. Yet you do so, and (according to you) realize that itslow-quality and purchase it anyway. Therefore, as TJ hinted at, either (a) you're a fool, (b) you really don't care that much about the quality or (c)the quality issues don't outweigh whatever other reasons you have for buying the shoes. But if you really care about the quality, then hold yourself up toyour own standards and don't buy the product. period. Flooding Nike with disingenuous complaints about quality while continuing to buy those sameproducts will change nothing. Money talks, bull-isht walks.Originally Posted by TJ Detweiler

anyone paying more than 100 for the cdp 17s from someone should reconsider their purchase. this is a 17's buyers market. you got all these guys buying uppacks for the carmines who just want to unload the 17s otherwise they are stuck with a fat bill and shoes they can care less about. Buying the 17s for half thecost of the pack from someone who obviously has more than one to sell is doing them a favor and doing a disfavor to yourself. You might as well get the packsand sell off the carmines for like $250+ just my opinion. i only posted this because I was looking for OG 17s or even the cdp version and people are asking for$150+...are you joking me?

the XVII's are there to increase JB's profit margin...the whole idea of "packs" is a complete gimmick
