so you're saying these new nike stores that have been built the past few years like Nike Dallas, Mall Of America, Roosevelt etc MAY POSSIBLY have a decent size run of these since FTL inc stores MAY not have them???
Thats EXACTLY right...Nike feels that the twitter system is working...It eliminates camp outs....it eliminates the "THREAT" of violence and robberies (dude can roll in whenever just before whatever time they are given on the clock) and there is little to manipulation (that we know about anyway..)
So if Stock is allocated to MOSTLY Nike Branded stores...expect ALOT to go around...dont get it twisted as true numbers will never been known especially without seeing how many bracelets are given out or how many people are on line...but it there might be enough to go around...NO ONE KNOWS for sure...
But trust..Nike feels this is a BETTER way to deliver product to the consumer...
I understand Nike's thinking but here is the problem... The twitter RSVP is only good for people close to a Niketown. I live in St Louis. the closest Niketown that will be open for this release is 9 hours away... needless to say I am already making plans for the trip but that is besides the point everyone doesn't have that type of freedom.... With the whole mom and pop thing I wouldn't mind it so much if the shadiness didn't exist. These won't even hit the floor at most spots and when they do prepare towhen you see that sticker price.. It's whatever though I'm pulling out all the stops and am prepared to pay a bit over retail.....
Side note... if Nike wanted to reach a larger group of consumers there a ton of nike outlets splattered around the country... What are the chances they get released there as well???
This.... tha would be amazing....outlets would givve me a chance im in sedalia, mo a small town an hour and a half from KC I could possibly raid the outlet there and atleast feel like I got a chance.... fingers still crossed something works out.... put some word out to some employee "friends" at oak park mall in OP, KS that work at HOH and FA for them to keep me posted..
