that gives you 1st dibs on limited releases

Yea I'm not renewing next year.  I was on hold for 2 hours and then people said they called in a half hour after the lines opened at got a pair.  It was a joke. The reps on here are always nice giving us a heads up but I paid a few extra bucks for the membership and still had to wait over a week for my 5 Rings. I'm fine with waiting for a delivery but they always give you a free shipping code anyway.  It would also help weed out the re-sellers to the true fans if you made people pay a little extra for priority calling.

It's funny to see how many people on NT are butt hurt about not getting their pair, and people are asking production numbers, and praying to the gods for a restock....

me personally gold club has potential but we need more benefits
free shipping codes is avaiable to eazy to public
or offer platinum membership with platinum benefits
its no way i should be batting 0 on every limited release on eastbay
from 5 rings to pacquaios to south beaches to kobe's this saturday
then to see people say i hang up and call back got a order through its crazy to me

Q:did you call using the gold club member number?
A:yes everytime and it dont matter because by the time i get to operator their sold out
or be on hold for hours like for kobe release the system needs fine tuning

 

[430AM]

Kobe "Grinches" for Lebron 8 "South Beaches"... I'm getting the South Beaches. Would ya'll do this trade?

 

[toosmoove29]

Got mine before going to work. The homie at my local FTL added the military discount for me since I put a discount on his cell phone bill. More pics later.

I pm'ed Ray and I used the same number that he posted on here. I  believe he said that would be the best bet.

According to Lebron $160 > $130, so yes.

Double checked my pm and he did say to call the standard number.  Again, this is not a knock on Eastbay Ray, he's just being helpful.  But the company Eastbay itself is a joke for not offering us a better opportunity.

We've had a lot of reports about issues with the call queue system for this release and I will be looking into it.  To my understanding our system is supposed to be first-come first-serve but it obviously wasn't on the 25th and I deeply apologize for the inconvenience.  It may take a little longer than usual to get an answer regarding this as a lot of people are on vacation for the coming week but I will do everything I can to at least make sure everyone's concerns are heard by the right people.

I just received an email stating that my order is on backorder for the Christmas day Kobe's, is this samething happening with other customers as well?

Damn, Canada rapes prices.

 

[drewdioxin]

Just got that same email. I am hoping I get my pair even if I have to wait.

 

[oodezzy]

Wheres the Cheapest place i coudl cop the grinchs right now ?

 

[nikeskywalker]

Both are reselling for about the same price (CG's and Grinch). So you should just trade, and it'll be like you purchased the CG's for the ZK VI price. You're already +$50

I picked up two pairs this morning.

 

[sneaky]

How do these fit compared to the V's?

 

[blacklion23]

I just got the email as well. Does this mean I may not get them? Please say no.
