    What's up with this pleading with people who information to drop hints? Either they tell us or they don't. I don't like playing this game of "please tell me please please please" =/
    I'm wearing a thong right now, if that matters.

    seriously i hate the fact that people r mad cuz they didnt get da DMP. i did not sleep in my car overnight a stand on line at 6 in da morn for a limited edition jordan(dat i do not plan to sell) jus to have it released again for everybody to have cuz a few people did get them. i understand ur unhappy but come on ur messin it u for the people who did get em. alot of people only get limited edition kicks and if these were to become mass release or close to then it would be no sense in have them for aLTD collection. i dont wanna be mean but jus deal wit it an move on and plan more ahead for the next DMP. i mean come on there gonna be like 3-6 of them, its a series so ur guaranteed at least 1 but if this happens because of this petition then ima sell mine cuz all da trouble i went through wasnt worht it at the end. just my 50cent
    IN MY OPINION Kobe Bryant is the BEST player in the league and has proven it with 3 rings and 1 on the way. when this case is over,and he is proven innocent nike if your listening, you need to retro the nike flighposite in purple and put the velcro patch with the 8 on them and make them very very very limited at niketowns only.

    Coppin a pack for 5 or 6 bills in nyc from a mom and pop store is unlikely without a hookup. I would just go da ebay way. Got mines for 520 shipped size 9 but good luck bro. It's Funny I had a hookup wit a mom and pop store, well I though I did. I was suppose 2 have them a week b4 they came out but da price went from 350 to 400, to 500, to 900 (((SMH)))

    Look guys, if you can't talk about something in public... don't talk about it in public. Send each other a PM.

    What you're doing right now comes across as though you're just lording coveted information over other members, dangling it over people's heads, the subtext being "I know something you don't know!"

    Everyone appreciates it when people share information, but nothing positive comes from simply saying "wow, the retros in December sure are hot. *WINK WINK* but I can't say any more!" If that's the case, wait until you can say something substantial. Whipping kids into a froth because you're privy to information that they don't know and you can't share serves no purpose other than, perhaps, self-aggrandizement.

    No one's asking you to compromise your jobs or your sources to share information, but by the same token you can at least be considerate of the community when it comes to when and how you choose to share that information.

    "Say, Elite A, can you BELIEVE the new retro?"
    "Oh I know, I was BLOWN AWAY! Everyone will go absolutely MAD when they find out!"
    "And what about the AMAZING NEW FEATURE, didn't it just make you want to shout it out from the hilltops, even though you know you totally can't?"
    "Tell me about it! But what about the HORRIBLE CHANGE?"
    "Yes, that'll break a few hearts! It'll be CHAOS in here when the hoi polloi learn of it!"

    Come on, what the heck is that? Is that how you'd like to be treated?

    When you dangle information just out of the average member's reach, you're not doing your sources a favor and you're not doing the community a favor.

    Not to be a jerk or n e thing. But some of us risk our lives to get a limited and exclusive set of J's. I camped out for 10hrs. I almost got robbed had to have cops escort me to my car. Got in a fight wit some dude...and after all that I sold my pair and copped another pair later that day. Which means there were plenty to go around.I'm not saying that it would be wrong to re-release them but it would be un-fair to some of us who spent the time and effort. Some one got shot right across the street from where I picked up my second pair. Yeah he should get one, but how many r u talking bout them re -releasing. Enough to make them not limited. Look the fact is you didn't get a pair, and that sucks but it happens. Don't complain because you didn't get in line an extra hour early and missed out. I don't think us ppl who did get a pair should have to "SUFFER" for your in action....Sorry. I didn't get a pair of Futura's for retail, but did I complain or pettition. NO!!! I'm saving up to get them at a reasonable price. There My grails and it's gonna make gettin them even that much more fun. I suggest you do the same. Cuz if you cruise the internet and exhust every store that might have had them then I'm pretty sure you can find them for like 400 or something.

    :lol: [​IMG] enjoy your pack and stop crying

    Don't nobody give a damn, JB included, that you've put that kind of premium on shoes. And some people went through similar stuff you did only to walk away empty handed. Don't get mad at the people for wanting a product just as much as you and doing what they feel is necessary to get them...just like you did.

    It's pathetic that even the people that have the pack are crying. :lol: [​IMG]

    If it makes you suffer for someone to have the same rights as you do, than equality is a term you don't understand. For those shoes to come out again won't hurt you in the least.

    How can so many people that got the shoes cry? I have never seen more selfish whimpering in my life.

    Rather than complaining amongst ourselves. We need to find better way to generate widespread bad publicity for JB instead of sitting in front of our computers complaining.

    I do understand equality. You did have the same chances as me to get one. There were 11,000 made if i understand correctly. I camped out. You didn't get one cause you made poor choices. There were other spots that you could have hit up. Like I said. I wanted limited kicks that I didn't get, instead of complainig about it I'm bout to throw up the 200 for them. Cause I want them that bad. If you wanted them that bad then yoiu would have camped out for 11hrs. It's not my fault that you didn't get one. And don't blame nike for you not getting one. Sure it was messed up that they made 11000 pair and you didnt' get one but if they made 11,001 then they wouldn't be as limited and therefore the demand wouldn't have been as much. These were meant to be a money making shoe but they were also meant as a great addition to a collection. No one wants something in there collection that every one can get. That was the main thing about the DMP. You can find some concords and some oly VI's(wich in my opinion are better than the actual package) but having the DMP's put you in a "exclusive club"....

    That's why the petition was started. It will give Brand Jordan/NIKE an opportunity to give to the customers. If they blow this chance, then we can use alternative methods to get their attention.


    Some people only had one shot at these. That wasn't by choice. I think you might want to be in the Retro/SB forum if you want shoes that nobody else can have.

    I want these shoes to wear them. I never got a pair of XI and these will be my first when they re-release.

    With that said:
    Sign the petition to re-release the DMP

    The strange part is that I only get more disgusted about this whole fiasco as more time passes.

    JORDAN BRAND IS USING US. THEY'VE MADE TOOLS OF US ALL.

    This release made it official that the shoe game is losing more of its integrity daily.

    HEY JB! What is love? Love is not whatever the hell you are doing.

    Don't know if anyone's stated this yet, or if anyone's seen it forgive me for repeating it, but pickyourshoes.com has the DMP for 919. Almost a g. Is it me or does the pack seem to increase in value everyday since it's release?

    seriously i've never camped out for anything before...why? cause i knew it would be pointless. the only reason why i camped out for these for 9 hours is because i knew it would be worth it. if jb decides to re-release it or send massive second shipment, i'd be more disappointed than those that were not fortunate enough to get one.

    i mean come on, this arguement is gonna go nowhere...jb should just leave everything the way it is now and learn from their mistakes on the 2nd dmp and make enough and NOT LIMITED bs...then every1 can be happy...
