How does everyone get their orders thru on Eastbay/NDC with the more "limited" shoes??

It was luck and lots of refreshing on 2 iPads and a laptop for Concords. But once it is in the bin, you gotta fly through checkout

unless you're a direct descendant of Jesus, don't even bother with eastbay.
ndc has only failed me on the yotd kd's, everything else I've been able to get pretty easily. you just gotta be quick with the fingers

Eastbay definitely is my second choice. No matter what, it seems the split second I add something to the cart I've got 2-1/2 hours wait.
My theory is that buyers geographically closer to the server have a better shot at succedding..
Like Nike, since the server is in Oregon the west coast buyers have that mili-second advantage over the east coast buyers and this day and age that's all it takes to get shut out.

Some of ya'll give out too much info in this thread. People should be able to figure these things out for themselves, IMO.

None of these are proven methods, fellas. I hate to break it to you but if you think these are guaranteed to lock you pairs for every release, then you're going to be sorely disappointed. If you haven't figured out a way that works for you by now, then nothings going to change your luck now.

yeah these methods are hit and miss. i tried this method out before for the concord release and because ndc was so busy my info didnt get saved. it doesnt work all the time, especially for limited releases when ndc is backed up.

keying in info is actually faster for me anyways. ndc page tends to load up slower with the trick and i think it might be because when there is more traffic (like for limited releases) the page is trying to pull up your info you tried to save from the servers. that time while it's pulling from the servers, i could just as well input my payment info. anyways, like i said it didn't work for me on the concord release

That's exactly what I think happens. I believe the name for the measure of how long it takes to reach a server and back is "ping." What sucks for me is I live in Miami, so it's basically the place furthest away in the continental US.
