Nike reminds me of that girlfriend that has bipolar all of sudden because she thinks the new girl (Adidas) is going to take you from her.

Nike probably saw the black-lash caused by the Maroon 6 same-day raffle entry and purchase procedure, leading to cancellations with all retailers.
Too late in the week to try to implement NDC raffle for an earlier date; and Nike would look like idiots if they changed to release date again.

It used to. It seems to have gone down hill after the OVO 10 release. That release still makes me wish I would have checked SNKRS. I was trying on desktop / phone, and then thought "hmm let me try SNKRS" I was too late though. Everyone who tried SNKRS from the jump seemed to cop though.

What are some opinions on Nike's draw system?

Pre Maroon 6 Nike draw; some like it, some hate it.

I didn't use it but I thought the idea behind it was terrible. All they really had to do is do the raffle the day before.

I think it would be a great raffle method, IF it was done a day or two BEFORE the release date. That way people will know if they would have to go a different route in purchasing if they weren't picked from "The Draw".

Again read what I said. Nobody has said anything about a secret drop since you came in here. Try to follow that if you can. You have been the only one even mentioning this mythical drop since you came in here. The last person that wasn't you to mention it, was well before you came in here. Very simple to follow that.
Your comprehension is lacking. I couldn't care less about a mythical secret drop, or if it's happening or not. I've never believed nor have I ever talked about one happening. I'm stating the simple fact that you're the only one talking about it.
FB, I don't do that. Talk about family you can see about me if you want to take it there. See you in the PMs.

Thankful there's not gonna be a raffle... Was on the fence if I would even enter if they did it because raffle = no swoosh price.
So now that I'll have a shot a swoosh price I'm in. Call me spoiled but there are very few things I'll pay real retail for anymore and this was not one of them lol

Long wait times the last 11 release. black red low was somewhat hectic. About an hour wait if I remember correctly.

I think it's a great idea. Although I've only won one... And it was for the Holo foam at LENOX. I'm 0 for whatever on NDC with the raffle.

notnewhere , you're pretty much the 72-10 thread's Private Pyle
You might wanna sit the next few plays out, hoss.
The thing about truth, is its the truth regardless how many people believe. I have never been one to buckle because the crowd does. Not to mention this can be solved by calling ANY store. Also, the alternative is so stupid it's unbelievable. There are people that actually believe Jordan has a shoe dropping they didnt advertise, when THIS shoe was known last year. Let that stupidity stain your brain, let it get all in the creases.
Think about this, when the world was first discovered to be round, majority of the world still believed it was flat. Schools still teach Columbus discovered America, even though it's widely known, he didnt. So just because a lot of people believe something stupid, doesn't make it less stupid.

Yeah, this. Although I think they should do the Draw even earlier, like when they announce the shoe's release about a month before the drop. That would let the 3rd party retailers know what the hell to expect on their end and their raffles would be fulfilled rather than have a slew of no-shows.

damn so bot boys are back on 
. I hate ATCs. They make everything worse. At least "the draw" was fair. I'm sure Nike will block all their proxies on this one though.

It's all luck man. There's plenty of pairs so just be patient. I'd suggest going to finishline and have the splash page do its thing while trying on all other site.
My order is FNL, NDC, then others.
