So Nike has 'Banned' Midnight Releases, Pre-Selling, and Pre-Ordering....LOL

[All Ready]

welp, im officially done then

preorders were the only thing making this shoe thing semi-tolerable

i only make id's now for the most part now

 

[Nike Jordan]

[dmoney82]

The midnight banning helps a lot IMO. Mad dudes was gettin robbed and %!# ..... even though it can still happen in broad day but it's a lot safer not releasing them 12, 1 am in the morning

If this happened more often, dudes would second guess about buying 5 pairs to resell, less madness on release date, and nike can keep raping pockets rather than re sellers simply buying out every pair and trying to get there molestation in too. 

I like this idea

Pretty much, have a release date and then an unknown date of a FSR restock. Have the restock within a week or two of the release date. Multiple restocks would help too. Its not like it would hurt Nike, they would make money off selling more pairs.

OR, things could be like they were up until 04-05, and there were enough pairs produced to go around...oh wait...but then no one would have "dem exclusives"

Its not that easy.  If you "ban" camping, expect a full on madman sprint into FLs,FNLs, ect. as soon as they open. Would get messy.  People will be waiting in and buy their car

 

[million dollar stacks]

Just network people.

^ Raffles would dead all of that +$!%%%$*.

 

[thunderchunk69]

Nike just needs to cut to the chase,

how many "nike factory" stores are around? that's pure profit
stop messing with these malls that charge an arm n a leg for security guards.

No matter what Nike does if these kids show no common sense it won't matter.

plus nike cant control all stores, some will still break the rules like always

damb im gonna miss the 11pm cdt wait times on eastbay and NDC...

 

[quktic]

^ it's only for in-stores.~

 

[coolgraymemo]

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

I never understand why pre order is a bad idea..

 

[notoriouspat]

you guys gotta look at the big picture, there are still going to be riots and whatnot, but at least now nike can say 'we banned midnights, they shouldve done a raffle, not our fault'

 

[zapatohead408]

I don't like raffles, it doesn't make more pairs available, it just randomly selects buyers.

it doesn't guarantee me a pair like camping would. And it gives a chance to all the people who ruined the hobby to get their pairs.

 

[thorrocksjs]

Nike seriously thinks this will help instead of dropping more pairs.These dudes are backwards.
