If only every release were this smooth. Hope resellers choke on those extra pairs they eat.

I don't understand why it hasn't sold out yet lol. Easiest cop since Sol for me.

The shipping and duties are running those in Europe and Asia around $200. So, many aren't paying $400 or more for these sneakers. And, as far as Americans, most don't care about Diadora.

Maybe just for the Euro guys. Shipping to Singapore is just $19.25 USD now, won't be taxed unless you get 2 pairs or more. During the NB 998 Cncpts release it was at $70-75 if I remember it correctly.

Yeah, it was a guy from Europe that told he wasn't buying because of the shipping and duties.

I guess it's always like that for them for any US release, regardless of the brand.

The shipping isn't bad... If you're in the UK you're essentially paying £20 plus £40 in tax whereas it used to be £45 plus £40 in tax...
And just because they haven't sold out, doesn't mean they're bad... This is how releases should be...

I wasn't wrong about the pairs so not sure what you are referring to. But hey it's all relative as I like to say. Buy what you like

Not a sample confirmed today that's a November Concepts X Diadora collab . The NY cats drove up to grab them bc they are going to wear them . Maybe other NYers drove for resell but at least 4 of them didn't

How is my size still available?
I hope that pic isn't of the next CNCPTS release.
Might just spend the money I saved today towards some Castelleres but afraid to look at resale prices...

In my opinion that will be the weakest collab so far.
It's great that it was easy to get a pair for those who wanted one today. Hoping the B.Elites will be the same. Not counting on it though...

Not at all calling you or anyone specific out. Just funny how before release time everyone seems to come out with some random number they heard from some "source" which 95% of the time is wrong.

I definitely agree. The pair posted a few weeks ago looked much better.

I think most people agree. I would have been all over those samples.

So crooked concepts trying to make people buy two pairs of their failed attempt at a cnote style n9000??? If they done that on purpose that's pretty fu***d. So the left over pairs will end up around the usual spots, or at some outlet at half price. Probably the worst n9000 to date [emoji]128522[/emoji].

If they are deliberately trying to catch people out with tricks like that then f them. That's not something that should be forgotten about. If it was a genuine mistake then ok but how would that happen? Seems to me they knew the release was weak / not hyped so tried a sneaky ploy to rob the sneaker heads. Let's see if they take back 1 of 2 pairs as returns.
