OFFICIAL KOBE IX NIKEID-- NO BUYING/SELLING DISCUSSION--R.I.P KOBE 9 ID

[nyc757]

Nike is done with the weak claims. Seriously I don't see the issue. You wear them once and the sole won't be the same anymore. You put them up for display who's gonna notice? I've yet to see a "Perfect Pair" of shoes. There's always something you can complain about. The side panels of the MC lows being off was a REAL legit noticeable defect. That's just my opinion though.

it all depends what rep you speak to honestly... some get codes for weaker claims 

If there is missing material from the shoe thats a pretty valid argument for a defect IMO but a hairline scratch get you 20 off 

@OmegaX  looks like your sole got stuck in the mold

We differ in our opinions of minor. IMO that sole groove is minor. I have a personal dislike for for the discount craze. I've paid for people's food at grocery stores before because there searching their purse for coupons to save 20 cent. We've seen how far folks go on here to save 20%. PZ...never forget.

That sucks man, sorry to hear that. Question for you, on your grey/purple/white ID, I'm wondering what color the heel overlay is? Is that black or is that dark grey?

The heel overlay is dark grey

Nice, thanks for the reply. I actually made that pair after seeing how nice yours looked, just a beautiful combination. Got my finishing email yesterday on those.

For sure, I don't have the photography talent like some of you guys, but I'll see what I can do.

I dont think his argument was the of the flaw being major or minor but the fact that its a flaw in the build 

20 cents and 20% arent the same but if someone saves  20 cents whats the issue what that 

Where do you live Id love for you to buy my groceries

Do the Mamba Moments have enough value that I'd possibly be able to trade my second pair for a pair of MCs? I just really want to have both in my collection

 

[bowb4me]

In Maryland, sometimes Vegas. It pays to hold me up in line I guess. Lol.

Question for those who have the MM. Is the black piece above the carbon fiber the same size? Or different like on some MC pairs?

Maybe with someone who double/tripled up on MC's and missed out on the MM's otherwise I dont see it happening.
I'd love to do that myself but even if I had doubled up on MC's I still wouldn't trade. As it stands I only have 1 pair of MC's and one pair of MP's
I would rather have doubles of the MC's over MM's

the 9s are too sick

Damn Mez One. Beautiful.

Thank you.

Thats what I feared alright thanks man I appreciate it

I remember now. Try escalating with Nike. That's not cool

I did. Talked to the general Nike rep, then a supervisor that wouldn't do anything. Said that was the only option I had.

ill be honest, i agree with nike.

if i remember the pic you posted. it was really nothng wrong with it at all.

 

[easyco]

Don't let that stop you tho. I'm gonna see what I can do with my extra size 10, it's always worth a shot. Worse comes to worse then just sell the extr pair and use that money towards the MC which is probably easier thn finding your size and someone who's willing to trade.

Exactly

I think MM and MC are equal but I dont trade shoes 

I wish Nike gave us a gum sole option even if it was just for the blk FK

I would trade one of my MC for MM if I found the right one for me. I don't look at these as having "value."

I hate this whole my shoes value is $350, yours is $300, so you need to put $50 on top mentality we have going on in this sneaker culture. Big pet peeve of mine. If the shoes are in the same neighborhood, it should matter.

[casper90403]

definitely equal

and i like MC more, but with 4 pairs and 0 MM, my feelings change.

 

[deezrsackolishus]

I thought the mm were trash.

Too much purple. I understand why tho

 

[casper90403]

I wish most of the MM had purple. Most that I see seem to have more green than anything else. The Nike renderings online made it look like it was going to be purple. Green was an afterthought.

I'm in the same boat.  

4 pairs of MM looking to add a pair of MC to the collection.

Does anybody have a photo of the Black/grey fade option? I see a lot of MM and MC getting love in this thread but none of the other options really...

Wanna see the finished product before I pull the trigger.

I really want to get either a black/grey fade, grey upper, or Syracuse themed shoe before the (very disappointing) X releases.
