Jordan IV Military Blue - May 4, 2024

[pwguy]

In case anyone is curious.....Fedex doesn't see the package was ever re-scanned so it's considered lost. I have no way of knowing if someone swiped the package, but if it did go back into outgoing mail and Fedex picked it up it would have be scanned. Not sure if the usps guy is responsible or if the Fedex guy saw an opportunity, or if it was actually just an honest mistake and sitting somewhere lost.

Nike can't do anything as they obviously see no inventory to re-ship. Best I can hope for is a refund (would rather not have to do a chargeback). F***ing hate this.

More than likely, the FedEx guy got you for ya package. Idk where you from, but here in NYC, Fedex drivers are the scum of the earth. They'll steal ya kicks so quick, it's crazy. Good luck, hoping for a miracle for ya.

I have had 2 pairs of shoes swiped by FedEx. Both were routed through NYC. One never made it and the other made it with an empty shoe box. All they left were the goat sticker, paper, and retro card.

I work from home, so every time I get a sneaker delivery I meet the driver at my door and look him straight into his eyes. I give him a look that says, we both know what's in these boxes, lets make sure they never go missing.

Me not hitting on the shock drop and seeing others hit and their pairs get stolen makes me feel warm inside, pause..

 

[Sunzi]

Not gonna lie, I trawled the comments on the WearTesters vid to see if anyone quizzed him on the factory.

His pair are the best looking I've seen post shock drop, personally.

Hearing the FedEx horror stories makes me glad my pair was handled by UPS. On release day I hope I can use the FTL app head start thing or even get lucky and pick up an unclaimed pair like I did with one of my pairs of Playoff 8s last year. With a second pair of Military's I'd be done with sneakers until the Olympic 6s in August.

What size are you

This actually makes a lot of sense. I haven't hit on a SD for over a year, but not hitting and hunting down a pair on RD is far less infuriating than winning and having the shipment lost/stolen. A salty feeling I've actually never had before. Best case Nike Elite finds someone to pull a pair from inventory to ship to me (98% unlikely), and 2nd best case is Nike doesn't give me a hard time and refunds me and takes on the fedex claim without making me put in more work to get my money back.

On RD I'm volunteering for an Eagle Project so don't even really have time that morning to do much work on these.

Dang that sucks. Sorry that happened to you. Why would you rather not have to do a chargeback? It’s not on you, you aren’t gonna get penalized.

Thank you. Good question....I'm thinking Nike could ban/block that credit card or otherwise negatively impact my account. I'd rather not deal with that possibility. Of course, if it comes to that, I'll definitely do so. Gonna see what Nike Elite says and go from there. Nike customer service has been pretty good to me over the years so mostly expecting them to just tell me I'm SOL on this release and just refund me.

Fedex seems to behave when you select drop off at fed ex store for delivery.

Honestly can't figure out what happened in May of last year that would result in this. All of my returns have been per their return policy. Wonder what happens to my account if I process a chargeback. Doesn't really matter anyway b/c that's my only recourse. WTF is going on in this world?

This is why everything gets purchase on the Platinum Amex. Nike customer service is a disgrace. Its a bunch of teens and earlier 20s running the show.

Did you delete that email from last year? Did you get black listed for too many returns? (Just asking, not accusing)

Either do the chargeback or got to FedEx and get them to solve this. It really is FedEx’s problem and not Nike’s and FedEx should figure out what happened and depending on that they should do what is need to make it right.

Playing Devil’s advocate here and I’m totally empathetic to the situation (this is a ****ty situation), but is this really Nike’s problem? Why should Nike make right what FedEx ****ed up on?

Nike continues to use Fedex knowing the horror stories. UPS doesnt have these issues because they are union and the driver is not going to lose his six figure job for some J’s. With the wage increase's McDonalds and Fedex are not too far apart in pay.

Yep...used my AMEX. They're awesome at taking care of me. No idea what will happen to my Nike account though once I chargeback.

Yeah, no offense taken. I don't think I've done too many. I had over 150K emails in my gmail trash (over something like 2 decades) so recently purged most of that to clean up space as I was at 80% of my 100GB. Anyway, around that time they accepted a return for AM1 BB red where they sent me a women's 10.5 instead of a mens. I had a few (like 3) other returns where it was outside of the 60 days and the chat help gave me a return label. I also returned the seafoam 4s around that time (DS) b/c it was easier than trying to resell and I wasn't ever going to wear them. None of this seems excessive or abusive to me, but honestly I really don't know what their algorithm is. It's possible they flagged me.

Agreed, it's a fedex issue...even USPS said despite the name on the delivery confirmation, it's bogus b/c they just drop off packages and sign themselves using the guy's name they know.
