Thanks to everyone who contributes both regularly and here and there. Again, this thread exists as a source for information, so let's all do what we can to keep it that way.

Basic rules - By entering this thread, you agree to follow all rules and accept a warning/suspension when in violation:



- Do not quote more than two pics.


- NO requests. Any information worth posting will be posted.


- NO pointless/useless comments like



Oh darn, wish I was a size xx!


Wack update, thanks for nothing.
- Keep junior-high back-and-forth banter or comments to PM or Email.


- Any questions regarding size and fit belong in
Sneaker Reviews



.


- Any posts regarding pick-ups from outlets or stores belong in
Sneaker Showcase



.


- Any buying and selling belongs in NT Buy/Sell

in the respective size forum.


- No self promotion (posting referral links).



These are not MY rules; these are the rules set by the creators of Niketalk.

What's a GOOD update?





- First and foremost, state the exact location. Do not post a store name and leave readers hanging. Posting phone numbers is not necessary but more info = better update.



- If you have pics, post them!




Need directions or phone numbers for a certain Nike retail location?
Nike Store/Outlet Info





How to make a phone order:







- Call the store


- Request the item


- Have credit card & shipping info ready


Methods for searching for a product (have the style code ready):






- Call NIKEFIND at 1-800-806-6453







- Chat (IM) with a Nike Rep







- Speak with a Nike Rep

For those who are a bit hesitant about using Nikefind or the Nike product searching methods, here's a basic step-by-step. I just did it with an item that was in the outlet over two months ago and the entire process took me less than half an hour.


1. Chat with a Nike Customer Service Rep.

2. State you are looking for a product and give the style code. Speed up the process by finding the product code before hand.

3. If the product is available somewhere, the Rep will give you a list of locations along with phone numbers.

4. Call the numbers, request the product. Some may have them, some may not.

5. Place your order over the phone with credit card; ask for a manager (for general safety).




Why is my comment not showing?



We're trying to reduce clutter. Free-posting is NOT allowed.



What's considered a 'non-clutter' comment?


Anything that provides info. A flaw in a B-Grade item, a store that will/won't price match, and so on. If a question has been answered, don't beat a dead horse.

Check your local Footlockers. Sprite Penny IIs marked down to $100.

this might be a dumb question but i really can't trust my local footlocker because they are a hoh also and never play by the rules most other hoh do .. ex they don't do raffles for major releases like the gold medal kds, lebrons, kobes..

anyway - do any footlockers / hoh ever do a phone order?
 
^ No, they don't do phone orders.

You can try stock locating (meaning, go to your local store and ask for them to stock locate an item by SKU), but it hardly ever works for limited/high-demand items... ends up being a waste of time. HOH's should apply to the stock locate, but sometimes they have different SKU numbers than the normal FTL stores I believe.

thanks, stock locating? is it you order it through the store,, as in if i wanted a pair of 180 glow in the dark for example and my hoh is sold out (they aren't) i can go and ask them to order it from another hoh? or are you saying they'll just look in the computer to tell me which hoh has it?
 
^Some retailers will do a ship-to-store or even have it shipped directly to your home. A lot of the time, it's at the discretion of the manager as most sought after shoes usually don't need to be relegated to other forms of sale as they will easily/eventually be sold in their own establishment...

They will look at the computer inventory system to determine whether the item you are looking for (looked up by SKU number... so, in your example, you would need the SKU number for the 180 GID's) shows up as being "in-stock" at any FTL's in the nation I believe.

Then, they will allow you to place an order right there for it if it is available anywhere (you give them your credit card information, etc.).

I believe the stock-locate orders are shipped to the store you ordered from (I don't think you can have them shipped to your house... could be wrong on that, though).

Either way, like I said... it doesn't really matter because the higher-demand items always get "cancelled"/"no-stocked" by the store that they were ordered from. You'll get a call from FTL a few days later saying that your order couldn't be fulfilled, then it takes a few days for the money to be credited back to your card. Very annoying, which is why I stopped even trying to do it. Have heard that it works/worked for some in the past... but never for me.

Thank you! The members so far on NikeTalk have been very nice, patient, and helpful. I truly appreciate it! This other site is nearly the complete opposite but those guys are all about themselves - like its some sort of competition.

Happy I joined NT!
 
Just to second what was said by What is Love, this method works best if the shoe isn't in high demand. ...But in this case, if the shoes are marked down already that is an indicator that they are not selling incredibly well and therefore stock locate is probably at least worth a try. As a quick and dirty rule, the longer a shoe has been out, the lesser the chance your order winds up getting "no stocked."
 
Arundel Mills loaded up on their shipments in today.  No phone orders but if you are near Hanover, MD and missed out on RD, both of these are supposed to be great quality.  So the rep said.  If anyone can get there in person, let us know how they look and what the action is like. 
 
Arundel Mills only has 8.5 left in the Raptors as of 30 minutes ago... Plenty of GMP 6's and 7's....
 
GMP are scattered in sizes. More vi than vii left. No big sizes of either.
 
GMP 6's are gone at Arundel Mills.  3 pairs of VII's left, one is a 9.5 - wouldn't have lasted 48 hrs if they did the phone orders by then anyway.

Looks like they will all be gone in the next hour tops.  They had to have gone to other stores too, don't you guys think?  Arundel Mills got a HUGE shipment, maybe a few others got smaller shipments?
 
damn, you guys are lucky. wanted those VI's but didnt want to spend $400 for the entire thing since i hated the VII's
 
No phone orders but Hagerstown has obsidian xiis

They will also have raptor viis tomorrow I think for their grand reopening.

Bgrades $129.99
 
I'm adding these photos to give a more accurate description of what to anticipate when/if you get Bgrades of these.
Raptor VIIs were fine to me.
GMP VII was a little rough in shape and in the toe box area
GMP VI was rough around the ankle area and DONT come with the white laces.

GMPs came in an orange box

Must be nice Big J. I need to move to a state where I have a chance to walk in and get something the day of.
 
Seeing as a lot of the A-Grades had those same issues, that's quite the coup for anyone who was able to grab the entire pack for under $300.
 
im just giving the heads up for the "Complainers."
Shoes arent perfect but they are OK.

Shoes came to $278 after tax. about $90 less than what I paid for the retail pack. Retail pack came with the flags, white laces, special box so the price difference is solid but not spectacular like it used to be.

MD never gets anything in the outlets. Hopefully, this is the start of things to come.

Arundel Mills also had the white/red/black Jordan 2012s for $79.99 I think on the hash wall.

^^^ back of the line. white/purple/yellow kobe Vs with a grey hoodie.
 
Does anyone know if they sold out? Thinking about making the drive up from Fairfax on my off day.
