This release has been nothing but a headache for me. I have to fill out a customs form & I'm probably looking at a little over $100 for 3 pairs -_-

You obviously have ZERO knowledge about this business. Sorry bro, but you're being a completely naive idiot if you think Nike doesn't know EXACTLY what it's doing for each and every release. The hype = news stories = a shoe's "legendary" status = EVERYBODY wanting a pair = more $$$ for Nike. Don't be dumb, it's not that hard. Regarding your post about how each store should get 80-100 pairs, RIDICULOUS. This goes back to the hype Nike WANTS to garner for these 12/23 releases. If they make these pairs more readily available and easier to obtain, sure it might make more money for Nike on THIS release, but Nike isn't Puma. Meaning they don't need the money. They are looking at the big picture. Hype right now = people talking about Nike = people buying Nike products = more $$$ for Nike down the road. C'mon man, wise up.

Even after the restocks, do you guys think these will budge from the 350-400 price range?

Got my shoes yesterday. Here are some pics
I have 6 pairs of XI's. I regret selling my columbias.
Now for the imperfections
White stain on the carbon fiber. I can get it out.
This is on the right shoe. There's a little pice near the toe box thats popping out. You really can't see it but you can definitely feel it.

But you're assuming that all stores have a limitless supply they can be orderd. In many cases esecially around me the stores don't really have an option as to how much they can receive from nike. They take what Jb sends them. They request an X amount and jordan brand, often sends them Y which ends up being less than the requested amount.
I agree that jb is not only at fault here, as things could've also been done by the shoe stores and security to further aid in the release of these shoes, but you giving nike a free of jail card is a bit naive. There are things all parties could've done that wouldv'e helped this release a little bit.
Do i really think it mattered. Of fcourse it matterd! If your biggest fan base are those who are in school, why not cater to them? I tried calling eastbay from 11:30- 1 to no fruition. had a final the morning of, so camping out wasn't an option. Went to class, did well on my fianl went home with no concords, but walked with atleast a B on my final. 2 of my classmates camped for concords, copped the concords, missed the final -- which by default cased them to fail the class. My point is this release wasn't as simple as you make it out to be. Nike did a bad job with this one. Idk why you keep on defending them.

Quick update on my Finishline.com order (for yall that have confirmation #s but it still says "processing"). I called them up today and the person told me it's still processing and to give it one more day. I called my credit card company yesterday and they said the charge is approved, so it's up to FNL at this point.

Last night, my friend got his two pairs in from Nike.com. He was kind enough to let me buy one for retail since it was my birthday a few days ago. That's true friendship right there, easiest cop ever!
After going to the Galleria (Houston) this weekend and seeing the groups of people all wearing concords and matching outfits like some B2K rejects I think I'll wait awhile before rocking

Edited as I've changed my perspective.
BE CAUTIOUS WHEN ORDERING FROM CALIFORNIA SOLE. Below is their website with news about restocks:
http://california-sole.myshopify.com/products/air-jordan-xi-concord
I took a chance in buying a pair, and I took some quick photos on what they sent me:
As you can see, the tissue paper squares are gold, not silver, and if you look closely on the last pic you can see purple stains. There are other little differences as well, but it'd probably be better explained with side by side comparisons in pics or a video.
Anyways, just a heads up, BE CAUTIOUS WHEN ORDERING FROM CALIFORNIA SOLE WHEN THEY RESTOCK as they may be selling unauthorized shoes.

I'm in the same boat as you. I called FNL yesterday and they said the warehouse was out of stock and my order was being routed to the stores. My guess is that if your FNL order hasn't been shipped yet, it's likely to be cancelled...
