A lot of Nike Factory/Clearance stores do that now because of people trying to work the system.
An example would be if lets say 2 guys go in and one of them returns a pair of Foamposites that they bought from NDC which were $250. Normally at factory stores they ring up at $130-$150. The 2nd person would then go and buy them and save that extra $100 for the first person.
They do it to prevent people from working the system which is why they put shoes normally on a 2 day hold so that it prevents people from trying to rebuy the shoes they returned at a lesser price. Another reason why they would hold shoes is because it does not have a ring up price and they have to send a request somewhere in order to get a price in their system.
Yeah so technically you didn't get jipped or anything they are just following an unwritten policy.

Is there a way to tell beforehand what releases will be discounted and which ones will not?
I guess i find it odd that some of the lebron releases were discounted, others werent......Same thing with the KD`s, but NONE of the new KD`s have been discounted but none of them were "limited" product.
Its hit or miss, like with the Foamposites. The concords and the volts were discounted immediately, but the triple black werent discounted at all. The purple XI are on CLEARANCE now and still arent discounted with he 40% off, while other models are.
Whats up with that?

Got a quick question for the Nike employees. I have an interview for a part time position at a local Nike Factory store, being that its part time whats the normal amount of hours I can expect to work in a shift? Also how many total hours in a week should I expect?

From what I have heard the only way to find out is to call Swoosh or e-mail swoosh, but you really won't know for sure until the actual day for sure. If the item is not discounted at all then i doubt it will be discounted even when its clearance out; who knows how that works.

My friend works at Niketown, dont know if ita the same but part time under means under 25 hours I believe. Part time over is over 25.
Its like any retail job, depending on the season and how busy your store is, you can get 10 hours to 30+ a week.

Dang that's just asking someone to lose their job bro. I know where you're coming from but I hope no one is stupid enough to help him out. Go on east bay and wait for them to have a 20% off coupon. Anyone that enjoys having a job at Nike will not help you. Not trying to hate, just trying to help out

I went through 2 interviews and a backround check at nike around march but ended up not obtaining the job. (i think it was b/c of no job expirience)
8 months later (with job expirience) I re applied about a week ago got a call and went in for an interview this past thursday with the head manager and two other emoloyees. it was suppose to be me and 2 other people being interviewed but i was the only who showed up they told me they give me a call or email on monday.
i hate getting my hopes up its been bugging me all weekend that i might get rejected even though i think it went well
any thoughts? comments?
