Man it is a real shame what this game has come to. Y'all are right. I know nike has a brilliant marketing plan. They know that the hype-beasts will always keep them on top, and that by making limited releases and adding drama, they win. They don't like these new so called bots, then again they don't really hate them either. They are making money and people are talking so they have exactly what they want. Back in 2000 when I first started buying my own shoes and getting a collection of DS shoes I was paying for and not my parents, there really was no internet. Then a couple years later the internet came and the releases like the nubuck 12 pack and those were actually fun and had a level ground for any and everyone. If you had a outlet and were on top of your game, did your homework, knew the releases and were serious that was enough for a fighting chance. These days people who can't even work a computer program to save a life can get a so called bot script to auto refresh their size or any size for that mater and it's really all about resale which is where the big issue for me comes in and that's what I'd think nike wouldn't like. Listen if I went out and stood in line for 6 hours and didn't get my shoe, it's a fair loss. If I got online and it was even and struck out with a level field same deal. Now when people start sending robots to stores and internet pages to turn a profit of the crap it's a problem. It's a problem for the real loyal fans and nike advocates who just want to collect the brand. It doesn't even feel the same fellas and it's a cryin shame. To be honest, I'll always love nike number one but this is why I got out several years back. Yeah I'm still half in and I always keep an ear to the street but it has taken the love out. Now, as fast as it was taken out...it could be revived as quick with them just doing a few small things to gain the control back of the game. Come on nike. You admire and love the greatest tech company in the world that's apple so why not team up to do away with these internet wanna be wanksters that don't know a damn thing about anfernee hardaway let alone what this was built upon. They never saw a day of skipping school to stand in a line for the LOVE OF THE GAME! And that's what it used to be. That's what's missing. That's what hurts. Man it hurts. Come on nike. Do this. Just do it!

what else can nike, there is people that are always going to find a way to get over. If you were nike what could you do besides raising the prices?
 
How much are these? and do guys think these will be wanted like jordans? worth buying just to flip if i can get to pairs?
 
haha thanks for the heads up, alarm was set. i figured because of the hype they would be worth more

how hard would it be for nike to change the link before the release?

im going to guess not very. and even if it is, i cant imagine it being an all night process. if they know about it now, itll probly be changed by release time tomorrow if they actually care.
 
glad i get to wake up at 7:45 am for them to drop at 8 instead of waking up before 5 am for you west coast heads 8)

It is what it is. get a few pairs to sell to get the pairs you missed at resell. Nike knows exactly what they are doing. Everyone will be trying regardless of how unfair they think it is. like they don't know about all the sneaker add to cart and rsvp services. Marketing at its best. Might as well join the reseller game till they decide to change things around. Online raffle/draft or simple quiz questions for twitter rsvp instore and bam...bots are useless.
