Air Jordan 5 "Oreo"

I don't know what time zone you are in, but technically they have until 7pm to deliver a package I believe. As far as a lost package goes, thats never happened to me but I'm assuming Nike would either replace them if there still is a pair in your size or return your money. I also think you should hold UPS accountable and see what you can get from them if you throw "I'm going to seek legal council" lol its a retro, so it's not as easy to replace.
Central time zone. I've contacted both companies and am waiting for responses. I'm out of the country right now so hoping it gets settled once I get back to Texas. 

I doubt Nike holds on to extras for this type of thing but who knows. I'm crossing my fingers that it somehow gets delivered today.

Is there anyone there to receive your package? It's well past their 7pm deadline (I live in Chicago/same time zone), I don't think Nike does hold onto any pairs as well, so worst case scenario you'll probably get a refund and some coupons. But, I'd go after UPS as well and hold them accountable since one of their employees more than likely stole your package.

Yeah I have someone there to receive it. Exactly what I was thinking about it being stolen. Ugh. 

I have some other random Amazon things being delivered today too but it seems like they're still "out for delivery." Guess I'll know more in the next few hours. EDIT: nm, they were delivered.

So your Amazon products were delivered but your shoes weren't? In that case, have no sympathy for Nike and UPS, these shoe's are overpriced as it is and them being stolen and probably irreplaceable is just ridiculous. Hold Nike and UPS both accountable, especially UPS since they are responsible for their employees and their actions. If luck goes your way, you may get your refund from Nike and the amount you paid for from UPS.
 
UPS is all sorts of backed up right now. I don't think you're at risk for it being stolen right now. I have a package that was supposed to be delivered on Monday that was pushed to today.....and still wasn't delivered. I called UPS CS, the hub by my house is apparently like 3 days behind since they got "27 trailers of packages delivered on Sunday." Annoying because I have 7 packages that are supposed to be delivered within the next 3 days. Who knows when any of it comes. Not to mention I picked up a pair of Oreo's for a friend to be delivered to his house....he didn't get them today either.

I'm in Dallas (by the Mesquite UPS hub) for reference.

You must be stupid with math, I'm pretty sure these go for $170 retail and they are selling or as you wouldn't say "sold" for about $250 give or take. You're making up these negative profits up though and expecting people to believe you. Ebay charges you a 10% final value fee and a 10% final shipping fee. So if they sell around $250 which most of those listings I showed you did, thats minus $25, which leaves you with $225 and you don't get charged a shipping fee if you do free shipping. So, $225 minus let's say $10 is still $215. These shoes retail for $170 and you end up with at least $215 how is that losing money? Your math skills suck. I still don't understand what you mean by we're hyping up the shoes saying they are the next "Oreo 4's." Please point out one person who said these are the next Oreo 4's. All we are saying is we like the shoes on a thread dedicated to the shoe. If we were trolling other threads saying how much better our shoes are to everyone else's I'd understand, but we're staying within our thread. You and the other kid are popping up in our thread talking down other men's purchases, which is pretty sad because that's what female's do to one another. I would never critique another man's shoes. At the end of the day, almost everyone who wanted these shoes were able to get them and thats what matters. If they sit they sit, oh well, but not one official Jordan retailer is in full stock of these shoes. You should stick to shoe thread's you like, instead of down talking the one's you don't like, it really speaks volumes of your maturity and level of ignorance to everyone reading.
There is no ebay shipping fee, or did i just missed something.. Final value fee is the only fee, thats for both the final price and shipping price..

Yeah. Nike is looking in to it. We'll see. Also what @thegamemodo9  says might have some truth to it, hopefully.

Hm, I didnt know that. Thanks for the info. They are supposedly at the Mesquite hub as well. I really hope you are correct.

It depends, Ebay says that if you print an Ebay shipping label it's free. But, even if you do charge shipping it's only 10% of what you charged for shipping. So, if you list shipping for $20 (which I doubt it costs that much) you pay $2 of a shipping final value fee, in total you would be paying Ebay $27 for an item you listed and sold at $250. Retail price is $170, I don't get how $223 is not making a profit when I was having that conversation you just brought up.

And they just delivered it..........at 10:14pm. Good thing I'm awake....got 4 pairs of shoes worth a pretty penny in this box. Good customer service to work overtime, but come on. It's 10pm.

Does your tracking say it's "out for delivery"? Otherwise, you shouldn't look for it till it does. CS told me yesterday if it goes over 24 hours without a tracking update, you will get directed to another department that will help track the package. If it is just sitting at the hub, it's just caught up with the rest of the packages. I wouldn't be overly concerned about it being stolen; from what I've read on these boards alone, it is RIDICULOUSLY hard for these employees to steal packages from the hubs.

I wonder what your reaction would have been if they skipped you until tomorrow lol most people would be a little more happy about that 10pm delivery.

Unless I'm specifically needing the package that day, I'd rather it come the next day during normal business hours. I wouldn't want to risk it sitting outside if I'm asleep or something. I live in a decent neighborhood so it's not going to be stolen, but plenty of people can't say the same. One of my friends has posted about their packages being stolen on more than one occasion, in broad daylight no less.

No, it still says "In Transit." I'll give it a few more days then. I completely forgot that they would be dealing with Black Friday/Cyber Monday deliveries this week. Glad you got yours. And thanks for the heads up!

It's understandable, I'm just saying that most people wouldn't be as understanding as you. But, you are totally right, unless you specifically need it that day or you are that excited that you can't sleep, then maybe it's best they wait until the next business day.
 
chicagoguy5 chicagoguy5 patience young padawan. If in the future you want something fairly easy and u dont have any options, drop me a pm. Ive sent alot over the years on ebay so i have it down pretty good and i have no issue once a while for retail + ship. But....u have to fight the battles and see how u make out before i can be of assistance.

Thanks, I really appreciate you taking me in and being nice, not everyone is like that but with my disability I've had to learn that there are good people even if it seems like there's more bad than good. Nonetheless, I'm definitely going to sign in 10 minutes beforehand on the 31st and log onto every shoe website that I have an account for and do what I can to get the Infrared 3lab5 5's.
 
Guys its holiday season... Packages from left and right. Give it a few more days.

Oh I sincerely feel your pain, 46" TV was "out for delivery" yesterday since 1:33 AM.  UPS didn't deliver it to my house until 8:30 PM, you can best believe I will be calling and raising all kinds of hell later on today.

The only thing I can imagine happening is, whoever attends you on the phone telling you they are extremely busy and figured you wanted your TV as soon as possible. At the end of the day, unless you're in bed at 8pm because you have to wake up at like 2,3,4am for work I don't see the point of calling to flip out unless your TV is broken of course. Because you'd just be wasting your time and energy, none of these companies really care at the end of the day in my opinion.

Wake up at 3 AM M-F, oh I have found just the opposite, if you go high enough up the chain you will get action on your complaints.  I work in IT, I have nothing but time on my hands while at work.  After thinking about it and reflecting on things that happened in the past 5 days, I figure never mind will just let it slide.
 
Got my pair from JJ and these 5s are beautiful. I like these more than the grape and the fear. If they were to put a limited tag on these the hype would be crazy imo. I'm glad they made a lot. Only thing is the white inner will get dirty pretty fast or jean stain.
 
I got my pair in the mail last night, man they are so clean in person, quality aside. The white midsole is going to be tough to keep that clean but the shoes really look decent scheme wise. I was interested to see if they would be as nice in person or not bc I truly didn't see a ton of pictures that did them justice leading up, but I do like what they did. Seems like a durabuck if I had to guess much like the thunder 4s, but overall I like these. Wonder how JB looks at the release? Fail bc it wasn't a store server crushing sell out instantly smash?
 
Got mine too last night. I like to texture.. Im not worried about the white midsole since i have roshe and i always manage to get the dirt of with magic eraser, works wonder... I never really look at the glue stains anymore since last year, i already accept the quality of jb.. Definitely a summet shoe due to the nubuck type.(imho)...
