The Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Blk/Red "BANNED" Sept 3 2016

[mrking]

People did not want to believe the truth, plain and simple.
GR this GR that.

Thanks for the info as always @vampire xtc.

Yep, they didn't. They were getting hype up by a few members, I'm not calling no names don't want to get in trouble, they were saying the shoes are in abundance

What is the record for most raffles entered? Anyobe at/near 50 raffles yet? I feel like your pair is pretty much guaranteed at that amount of raffles.

Going to go all out nerd here -- if you entered 50 raffles and each raffle had 100 total entries, the odds of you not winning a single one would be 0.99^50, which is 60.5%, meaning that the odds that you win a raffle at all would be 39.5%. So it's a much better chance than entering 1 draw, but you're more likely than not to still take a major L.

I already know I'm taking my L -- I've never won a single thing off SNKRS draw.

So do people really think there are less of these than say metallic blues OR the demand is just tenfold.... There seems to be pairs out there but demand is what's making them so scarce.

Time to try and enter 100-150 raffles, I feel like that might be the only way to guarantee a pair haha

BTW has anyone tried to pay people on Craigslist in other cities/towns to enter raffles in their name? Only 1 spot I went to checked my ID to enter.

I'm saying. Last 3 releases were had at discount, smh and these are a damn draw on SNKRS..

 

[hipstermike]

Entering all the raffles near me, Nike is being awfully quiet about how their stores will handle it. I don't mind camping out at Nike The Grove if they will do FCFS

 

[08kx250f]

Any Houston, Tx people got any info? Galleria, Memorial City?

How does the snkrs draw work

Wait until people start getting murdered and/or robbed during the release.. FCFS releases lead to this happening because stores coordinate poorly with local police and it inevitably gets out of hand. I'm not sure why they would ever do FCFS for this release but it is what it is..

if you asking this now....you already lost......lol jk. wake up at 7AM pacific and you have 1 hour to enter their online raffle. then you wait for them to hand you the L

It's about to be a long day lol

This right here. Stores are asking for trouble with FCFS with this release.

Gotz damn y'all boys are funny .. Lmao

I wouldn't even compare those other 1s to this release its no contest

Out of this lineup of anticipated Jordan's this year

Bred 1s
White cement 4s
Flu games 12s
Space jam 11s

I know I'm not the only one who saved most their energy and effort for this weekend
Breds were the one and only release this year people I know actually wanted to put in work for
Also I feel like it will be a while until we see the breds in this form for a while, which is getting probably people who missed out on the 13s like me more antsy then ever

buddy just got a call from a FNL i couldnt get to because I had to go back to work. He got two from em 

 Damn my job, damn it to hell 

 

[rhinosport]

Agreed. To me, it's all in the delivery. If certain individuals only rephrased their info, then it would be a better environment. Misleading construed info is the same as bad info.. (imo)
It's borderline crossing #3 Section 2.

over 100 on these, at the end of the day doesn't matter how many you enter, It's all luck,

Last year went 0/50 in Chicago 1's raffles.

Yup, Monday was the only day for a couple stores here to enter

You entered 50 raffles for Chis and STILL took the L?

That legit might be the worst luck ever fam.

 

[alp]

0/50 is wild. You a size 8 or something. I won like 7 of those joints

 

[kicshk]

any NTers in asia trying to cop these? just want to see how other places are handling this release. 

all we got here in hk is a online raffle on nike.com, never won anything from there, hopefully this time it comes through.

good luck to all, lets eat!

 

[sohoguy]

Got one raffle and got bored with just that one trip, I'm done lol. If I don't get it, Saturday online raffle it is.
