Not a fan of the auto checkout kinda after the fact when you have purchased off a foot site. I guess you purchase then return so you don't get the scarlet letter for the next drawing.

Gonna try to double up.

Reseller have their eyes on the Yeezys. No need for them to tie their money up with Nike raffle and footsite returns and FNL pending charges

With JB moving up the release, Yeezy or not, I can't help but to think there's something brewing for the original RD. I have no proof of anything, but the magnitude of moving up the holiday XI release for something else makes me feel that it's got to be something crazy. Can't fathom Nike sacrificing a Saturday prior to Christmas.
Then again, the more I think about it, the Gamma XI release was abysmal. Overnight delivery promised, FedEx/UPS failed. I imagine a ton of 20% discount codes were issued...I know I got one. Maybe that's the impetus.
Meh..who knows.

Something tells me that these 11s will be really easy to get. I'm just going to enter the Nike raffle, I might do the Finishline raffle tomorrow since a lot of people will be thrown off.

Resellers ain't gonna make $$ off the Yeezy's either because everyone gonna be broke. Yeezys are way overrated. In fact, any of these collabs are overrated. Case in point: SUPREME 5s.
Another case in point: Ain't nobody buying Adidas Yeezys on eBay for $500+ either.
Like I mentioned in another thread the other day, the reseller game for NEW releases is dead. Mass production is Nike's new thing because Nike has responded to what everyone has been wanting all along - the chance to own any pair of Jordan they want for retail price. Of course, it comes at a higher price but this is the trade-off. We can't have our cake and eat it too.
The only types of Jordans where re-sellers can possibly profit are older releases that are hard to find and in some sort of considerable demand (i.e., og colorways, shoes that haven't been retro'd in ages such as Cool Grey 4s).

the release date was caused because of logistics.

The hypebeast are just exposing themselves with the Kanye talk.

But doesn't logistic problem cause delays rather than releasing early?

You guys really believe this came out of left field. This is all part of their plan and their process.

This move was all about online traffic (with multiple releases on 12/19) and timely deliveries. Nothing else. They learned from all of the multiple releases on one day last year. They had to cancel so many and reschedule because of it.

Yeah, I didn't want to have to try, but after holding them in hand, I have to go for a pair or two.

They're sitting on 100s of thousands of pairs so shipping them the week of christmas is the problem.
