Your saying this even though it's been confirmed on here by legit sources that they will be released in stores in March?
Even if it wasn't confirmed on here....to think that these are a 1 time release online only, and will never hit store shelves is a little bit of foolishness.

I'm 32 and I too have slowed down considerably. I really only want og colorways and I'm not looking for anything I've had already. All I copped last year was blk/red iv and blk/red 11s Missed out on white/cement iv but looking for it now. I think once I get what I really want, I'll be out for good.
Mid 30's here. Stopped buying retros around 2003, except for the the occasional Air Max 1 retro (Air Max Groove from 2006 was my favorite). This particular shoe, the AJ3 88 retro brought me back to NT and got me excited again. Unfortunately wasn't able to get a pair last Wednesday (tried hard and was unsuccessful) and I'm kind of refusing to pull the trigger on eBay right now.
Still hoping there will be a re-stock of some sort down the line. What kills me is that the shoe would immediately sell out again if they did do a re-stock. Heck, they could re-stock multiple times on this exact shoe through the course of the 2013 and it would be gone in minutes each time. I have to think that they JB knows this and will take advantage of it. It's in their interest to do another run of these. They are leaving money on the table by not doing so.
Until then...
There will be an in store restock on March 23, info from a reliable member on here named JM so hold out until then. They will take advantage of it by putting NA on other coveted retros {4,5,& 6} best believe in most popular colorways.

Are you trying to justify your strike out by complaining to those who paid retail for these? Good luck trying to find a pair for these for that price now.

Manager at HoH here in Houston said UK only on 3/23, JB would of announced it by now, I'm just saying you can get a pair for $300 right now & in a year they will be over $500 when they DON'T drop in store in the US, only 20,000 pairs made also, I could care less if you wait to buy but thinking these will go down in price after 6 months, ur crazy

I quoted this post a few days before the 88's had a confirmed release date.

Well if they are defective and cant be "sold"...can you give em' away instead? PM me if you have a extra pair of 88' 3's you guys are willing to give away. I'll pay the shipping though. Thanks buddy!

Yeah, that's JUST how businesses operate. Defective pairs go back to Nike (or whoever the manufacturer is). That's one quality control feedback loop. If every defective pair was returned to where it was bought from, Nike might have better feedback from the ones that matter: their retailers/accounts.

Are you guys serious...confirmed sources all over thread and with my own eyes seen the footlocker employee point to her release date sheet on clipboard and say Jordan 88 white cement red. March 23.

I don't care, I'm not shelling out big cash for these. If I have to, I'll wait until they retro again with a Jumpman. Resellers can take a hike.

speculation but he did not said DEFINITE release dates. Although the march 23rd release is the Europe and Asia release. Whatever, eventually the correct info will be dropped before the release date for all releases someway somehow

I have been sayin the same thing, im in my early 30's when am I going to stop buying J's? i tell my wife when I look like George Costanza. Bald. Over weight and a fresh pair of heat. I remember being a kid and my mom taking me to the mail in the 80's to buy new sneakers. I now have passed this onto my 6 year old son. There is a line, when my son is 20 I wont be standing there with him on release day.
