 i'm happy for the all people who couldn't afford/missed the OGs and still paid about $200 for a retro today!
  
 
I called Nike.com, and they said unless there's a fire at the factory my order should go through successfully.
 
I called FNL today and lady told me that my order i made thru the mobile site is good to go i made that order at 11 am. Got an email nike i should get the tomorrow
 
I had no interest in this release until I just logged onto Nikestore UK & saw the retail for them is £110!!

JB taking their greed to sickening new levels

So I was wondering if any UKers got them? -because I fully expect these to still be around in 3 months time.

i hope and i pray they get a legit competitor.   it's just wrong that sellers have no leverage.  you can't leave deadbeat buyers negative feedback, paypal will sometimes put your funds on hold until the buyer receives the item, and the fees keep increasing and increasing with no regard or respect for sellers. the items i search regularly i've been noticing less and less listings for them over the years so slowly but surely people are finding other ways and options to sell aside from ebay.

Strolled into a footlocker in The Hague at 20:00 PM and got the last size 11.
Happy that i got my 2 pair, the wait for the Concords has begun. 3 Pair minimum!
How long did i take for you to get your package from crookedtongues from the time they shipped?
His timing will be completely off for your purposes though. He's in The Netherlands so shipping was probably at MOST 2 days and that was with all the weather delays.

They may get a legit competitor, but it'll take quite a while to get on Ebay's level...

The problem is they KNOW there's nobody that even comes close to what they do. It's damn near a monopoly...the upstarts that HAVE tried, appear to be a scam, or people are hesistant to deal with 'em.

IDK...there's no protection for the sellers, the fees are out the *+%, PayPal locks your money up (I cussed a lady out a few weeks ago in regards to that...didnt mean to, but she pissed me off), etc, etc....not to mention they have THE WORST customer service I've EVER seen....they dont even have a 800 number to contact them anymore. Every number you call does nothing but give you a website URL. The only people that can get you in, is PayPal...got transferred a few weeks ago, and was on hold for 1 hr.37 mins (literally)...I also tried to chat, but was #268 in que....

I. HATE. EBAY.
 
just called NIKE since my order still says "processing", the woman was awesome. She told me my order will be picked up tonight and I will have it 2marrow, "weather permitting"...sooooo relieved!

I called the Kids FTL where I bought them from, and they claimed thats the way its suppose to be, is this true???

I just checked the size 6 and the size 6.5 that I bought today and the both jumpmen are facing the same way. Sorry bruh.

It seems like most online forums are "not what they used  to be". Niketalk is alot of mess sometimes but still provides some good info!
 
so heres my story: i had to work a half day today and then had my xmas lunch with my coworkers afterwards at Fogo De Chao in downtown Chicago, so I sent my mother to go scoop my pairs from my brother's DTLR on Stoney Island. she calls me around 9:20 saying she's lost! I don't have much time to look up the address and I didnt know it off the top of my head because he just got transferred there a few months ago. So she calls me back saying she'll have to cop them when she gets off work, which was around 4. I was effin' irate and felt like punching a wall, but I tell her to call my brother to arrange a time to pick up the shoes.She tells me he's coming to her job to scoop the cash from her on his lunch break and will cop them when he gets back to the store. So he does and all is well..except his store only got 1 10.5 in his store. the other 10.5 was at the 95th street DTLR. I strongly contemplated going to River Oaks to scoop another 10-10.5 but Cool Greys aren't one of my favorite XIs so I didnt even bother. I'd rather use the money to cop some South Beach Lebron 8s (which I was going to trade the 2nd pair for). anywho, heres a few pics:

amazingly as bad as paypal is now, they were way worse 4-5 years ago, but %%%% pisses me off.  i didn't have a single negative feedback or bad transaction in 2 years,  they randomly started putting holds on all my sales. i called them and told them i was going to cancel all my auctions and refund all my buyers and tell them to pay me with a money order or google checkout and if they didn't want to  they wouldn't have to do the deal,  after about an hour of back and forth with their reps they finally lifted the limit but it's frustrating.
 
got my confirmation email from FNL (thank god)... managed to pick up my girls pair at the mall (thank my alarm clock)... got there at 4am didn't get in the mall till 7:45... everything was sold out by 8... they opened the doors and started escorting groups at 6

glad i got one pair... sorry to all the pepz that missed out... sucks to see lil kids cry when their parents dragged em outta bed to get sent home with NOTHING!

2011' we're ready
 
just got back from my local footlocker and picked myself up a 10.5. Easy cop...cat behind the counter said they still had FSR
 
has anyone been able to sign into their account on Swoosh.com to check their order status?...i keep being redirected to the non-flash site...I recieved my order confirmation via email, but I'm just curious about the shipping status...

I'd be very shocked if any store still have pairs of this shoe... cause as far as I know.. State of Florida is sold out of Cool Greys
Just came from the downtown shopping center in SF to exchange my 8 for an 8.5 and I still saw guys picking up their size 9.5s in the FTL.  They are pairs out there if anyone still needs them. just have to do a little calling around. I was gone keep the 8 too but I thought I'd make some one's holiday so I just swapped. Good luck to all those still on the hunt.

think u can give me the # for that one? thanks!

glad i was able to get a pair

These are coo. But you're right, they are not like the 2001 retros. Those felt like pillows on your feet. Im not over stating it either. These feel ok compared to the SJs from last year. Over all I'm glad I got my pair.
