New Nike.com System - Picture Captcha/Access Codes

 
New system is still flawed, dudes are going to make 100 nike accounts in different sizes and hustle codes.

Go check the lebron 2k14 thread to see what its going to be like.
hopefully they won't "select" such new accounts. Maybe they could select people based on how many and what kind of releases they have usually copped in the past. Even though resellers would basically be guaranteed codes if that was how it worked.

See what you did there, no matter what the criteria used to select who gets the code a group will always get left out which brings us back to this unrealistic perception of fairness.  It will never be fair to those that don't cop.
 
you guys serious? this is NOT new at all. Nike will NOT be using this. This is just up for releases such as the lebron 2k14s where u needed an access code to buy the shoe.... move on

I don't agree with @Zyzz  often but he's right about this one.  None of it makes good business sense.

If you make it hard for new customers to buy then it'll make them stop attempting to purchase from your site, if you alienate old customers they'll get pissed too.
 
LOL yall gullable af

no you will not receive an access code at all because its obviously not true and isnt intended for use in normal releases

this is true. The only reason I said it was because if they do select any account, then there is nothing to stop someone from making a bot to create accounts while he eats and sleeps for weeks, trying to increase his chances.
 
 
dude, stop defending the stupid system. how is it fair to those who only use NDC?


i could careless about limited releases since they are a crapshoot regardless.


oh wait, im whiny as hell because i prefer to use NDC then other sites. :rolleyes :rolleyes :rolleyes :rolleyes
Facts:


1. Nike's product demand will never be met with supply.

2. The current system is completely unfair to those who can't build a bot or pay for a bot. It's also against Nike's rules to use a bot and you risk being banned as a customer.

3. Raffling off available product is fair to EVERYONE.


You complaining cause you only want to use a flawed system is borderline tard status. And yep, I'm defending them taking steps to give everyone an even shot at products.

Pretty simple: you have to include a valid billing method, address, and name. Those are cross checked. I participate in raffles for concert tickets from bands, and those usually have a ticketing period and at the end of the ticketing period everyone's entries are compared and duplicate addresses and names, or CC #'s are removed and in some cases blacklisted. This isn't that hard here guys, you're overthinking it.
 
Whatever the case may be, Nike is acknowledging that there is a problem. If this is the fix, who knows?
Or are they? What if they are just drumming up another way to create hype? Now there will be access code hype. People will be peddling "guaranteed retail pairs" left and right with these access codes for a profit. What's to stop resellers from getting an access code? Not to mention an even lower chance of getting a pair on RD if you struck out on codes.
You won't be able to change where the shoes are shipped to cause the code is specific to an account. And we all know how NDC handles different shipping and billing addresses. All you can do is resell using your code.
 
 
This is definitely BS, I was just starting to get releases botless too, got all the Preludes except 1's and Bred 1's, missed out on the yeezys though. This sucks. What they shouldve done is just announced the code on their twitter and you have to enter the code to access the page, this is stupid, now it doesn't even matter how fast you are or how fast your internet is. Just based on LUCK
so I see you have access to early links

Your thinking about this is in the most simplistic of terms, you've got to realize that some of us know how to defeat nikes 1 per rules at almost hilarious levels.

Most I've ever ordered of 1 release is 10 pairs but I know people that have gotten 40 pairs of the same shoe with just a handful of addresses and yes all forms of payment weren't duplicate.

Its not that hard for those that want to circumvent the system.  Just understand that whether they implement this across all releases or not that there will be a way to game the system.
 
has nike even announced anything? we getting hyped over nothing as of now. nothing is official yet
