Official Air Jordan XI Concord Release thread 12/23/11 NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[nklebrkr]

Thank you Champs ! Finally got my pr today at noon. Only 12 prs with their restock.
Much appreciation to the Manager of the store!

Hey guys, I got a spot on my patent leather. I normally wouldn't care too much, but it's kinda noticeable. I think it's a glue stain. What would be the best way to get it off?

 

[djlunchbox]

My homie was able to randomly scoop up a pair in his size this morning at the FootLocker inside Thousand Oaks mall. Seems small restocks are randomly hitting stores.

Also I find it hilarious on all the pairs bought/received from FNL,FL,EastBay,NDC, etc are so tremendously horrible on QC yet people are shunning the early/gray market pairs for similar or slightly smaller defects. Even the whole "clear toe" thing is funny to me because the SJs and Breds and even DMP pairs have that. I'm not gonna lie, I was so worried during release weekend that I would either get stuck with or end up selling my sz 14s that I ordered a pair from Air Randy. After reading this article  it sure helped explain alot and gave me a different perspective. Given the repeated gripes about JB quality being in a downward spiral, my question is why shun these gray market pairs? I mean how many of you came home with crappy carbon fiber, glue stains, warped/scratched patent leather or any other issue w/their Concords? In any case, I'll post some comparison shots when the new Air Randys come in. From some of the videos I've seen posted w/in the last month, some AR pairs looking better than JB retail ones

Just cancel all of their bids and block them from bidding in the future. Cancel their bids as soon as they post them. @East99...those pics are

Idiots!! Mine was sold for $400 plus shipping on a 3 day auction with a bidder w/ 3 feedbacks and I don't think he has plans on bung it. Cost me $35 selling fee for NOTHING!!

AI is the one who made me want the Concords.  Back in the day EVERYBODY rocked his Georgetown jersey.

thats ridiculous. i ordered on the 14th, when they had preorders and they have yet to ship anything for me

but congrats on your order

Yeah u think that they woulda shown us with the pre-orders more luv than those that ordered later..... just seems the most ethical IMO..........paitiently waiting too dawg

maybe its how people paid? not sure.... 

to be honest i was surprised it went smooth, somewhat disappointed my pair had scuff/scratches in the back (cant be fixed

)...... but hopefully you guys get your pairs soon enough.

Man, I had the same thing happen to two pairs of kicks I was selling, some foams and lebrons. Best part of it was one guy kept trying to scam me into letting him pay me with a money order/western union smh...

Great article. Learned a lot from it. I suggest everybody take the 5 minutes to read it.

KB8VIRGINIA I hope you know that the selling fee can be refunded and disputed if the bidder does not pay. So really it didn't cost you anything.

KB8!!! What's up man?!  We did some business years ago bro...lol...legit NT'er for sure...

But yeah man, I feel ya...I had an auction up as well as one of my boys and we were getting hit by zero and low feedback bidders trying to run the price of the auction up fast...I just watched my auction the whole time and canceled and blocked all of their bids each time they bid...the most frustrating thing about these salty fools trolling your auction is that eBay refuses to do anything about it and you have to open up this case and wait for them to investigate for like six weeks before you get a credit for your seller fees

CHUMPS.

Having no luck confirming the South Coast Plaza restock. I'm not trying to drive over there for nothing. Hopefully the homie that's closer will cruise over there for me and get some answers.

I miss the days when you could order sneakers from a catalog (eastbay). I remember back in h.s. people wouldn't be listening to the teacher just flipping through the new eastbay catalog lol

Wow, you gave me flashback to HS '94-'98....that's exactly what we used to do in class.  Eastbay catalogs were the $%#@

THIS. All of this^^ I was one of those classmates. I still have a bunch of old SLAM magazines I often go back to just to look at the kicks

 

[pimpjobu]

Reading this thread I get to see soooo many emotions from joy to hate. Well decided to share some info for people who r located in the central ca area. Got word of a restock that's going to be at footaction in Fresno. Don't ask me what mall, just google it and do the rest of the work. Manager at fa gave me this info when I checked to see if my store got additional pairs or not. He couldn't tell me when Fresno was getting them, but that it would be either tomorrow or Saturday. Don't know how big a restock they're getting, so please don't pm me asking for more info. It's the least i can do to help someone out there who is still 0 of 0 on getting these for retail.

2nd all that BigPoint... I have all my old Slams including Kicksology.... Ahhhhh Nostalgia  

 

[casper90403]

Bunch of lazy bums in this thread. You can tell who will get them and who won't based on comments posted.

ANYWAYS, for the LA heads, I found a spot releasing these tomorrow, at 10am.

Here you go: Westside Pavilion, Footlocker, 2nd floor (middle of the mall), only sizes 11-14, and ONLY 8 pairs. Good luck.
