You seem like a smart man, just understand why some people would feel some way.

But here is what I would still like to still hear on this board. I want to hear nothing but sad stories on how you got jacked or couldn't cop a pair. Why you ask? Because that would make me feel better about my situation. I swear, I was praying to Horus so that everyone that got through the payment system got their orders canceled or bounce back to the website. Then after that I was hoping that everyone that got a conformation email were going to be called back by Nike just to be rejected.

Now all of this might sound like hate or selfish, and in someway it is. But sometimes a human needs to hear others suffering in order to heal from their strong wound. It's the way humans work psychologically, don't blame me, blame the creator of the specie. 

Soooo with that said, I would like to thank "Gator" the guy that got his order cancel. I feel reaallllly bad for you,.. but at the same time I have a huge smile inside my head. When I heard your story I actually stopped hanging around the garbage can and actually started socializing once again. I strongly believed God used you to heal others that were struggling with depression and haterzation. You were sort of like Judas and Jesus, both sacrificed themselves for the cause. 

You are my Judas!

You new members kill me. 

he's just being honest about the human physchy. in some way, seeing others fail when you fail take away the sting a little bit.  

approach is crazy tho

Well yea that doesn't help the cause because we all know the game has changed all these releases are based around hype. I think we all know that the first yeezys were not even close to being this difficult to cop it just shows how much different the game is. I've said it befor it would've been nice to have a pair of these but then again im not going all out of my way to get em. I tried my hand in raffles that didnt work so my last hope was ndc and I struck out on that too. Life goes on. At the end of the day they're just shoes right?   

 

[sneakerpimp2k8]

Are they really gonna do this a 3rd time tho?

so if its still preparing to ship its cancelled? uh oh

Not necessarily.. Called NIKE bout an hour ago.. Said some have shipped, but orders will continue to ship through out today & all of em should be done shipping by tomorrow morning.

Yea seems you have to call Nike...Got my tracking last night and my pair are on the way literally down the street. Overnight FTW

@Gator did you call NDC?

 

[mumbles]

i'll be waiting till around xmas and the hype has died down some with these hypebeast moved on to the xis or whatever else.
who knows what happens between now and then, maybe a few pairs pop up. nonetheless, i'm just gonna be patient and hope for
the best because the prices will fall.

and whoever cancelled dude's order is on some 5 year old spiteful %!%....just grimey.

I was following them for info but they got real annoying with their weak clues

yeah fam lol what the hell am i gonna do miss two days of work and hunt for a chance to buy em, crazy aint the word!

It's going to be a 21 hour straight scavenger hunt stranded with 150 people and under hot and humid weather.

%@$% is worse than a MTVs The Challenge and Fear Factor

I'm in the scavenger hunt.  I took off from work on Thursday.  I have no idea what to expect.  I just want it to be safe.

 

[kicksiscrack]

SMH. That ebay post just confirms my assumptions. Sneakers are the new beanie babies, for real. This WILL change, and then the prices will drop. I have been in the hobby for decades, and I have seen it spike and fall, but this is def. getting crazy. It really can only go downhill from here, and then the prices will normal up somewhat. I mean there have been some RARE releases over the years, even some hyped up rare releases, but I never saw grandparents in on the "lottery" lol.

I have seen people offer trades in sneakers that are MORE VALUABLE than the 2 stacks in cash, and these sellers are passing? If they would do the knowledge, they would be able to resell the traded shoes for MORE, but no..thats not what they want. They want a quick flip like sneakers are foreclosed homes lol. That solidifies for me that they have no clue about the value of other sneakers, only that the Yeezy is hot. LMAO. Then the fool who traded Air Mags? Seriously??

Those who are paying 2 stacks are NOT helping any. If we could all avoid the impulse purchases, these resellers will have to settle for less money. Although it doesnt look like that will happen anytime soon!

Guess I will keep lurking for my 9-10 at a reasonable price. Not 1k. To me thats not reasonable!!!!

 I guess that's what it comes down to though, you can't get salty over things like this... to the average folk who saw the dumb news report about those idiots who jacked the bid up to 90k, they thought that this was their chance at a big payout for no cost.  equal odds for these lotteries... no one was entitled.. kinda lame but that's this release - more than just sneakers. *shrug*

All I know is we're getting an e-mail Wednesday night with details and it starts at 4am Thursday morning.  This clause from the e-mail makes me a little uneasy.  We know how things can go down in Philly....
You MUST sign a waiver to participate.  The waiver details include that you are responsible for following all the rules, and that you are participating at your own risk.  This also means that if you are caught doing anything that is considered cheating or putting any other participants in danger, you will forfeit your spot in the scavenger hunt and be automatically disqualified.

The hunt will take hours eventually you find out out that it leads you to the dumpster behind taco bell only to find out Tyrone Biggums was there first (didn't have far to go) and is wearing the @#$% outta them.

Does this clown actually ever sell anything?  I don't understand why he constantly lists shoes at prices people are never going to pay.

 

[firmeporvida]

This is kinda like the galaxy foams release..sellers asking for over $2,000 but now they can't even get $800.

HM? Is that right?

*looks at sig* SMH

So instead of helping other NT members that more than likely helped you get your pair and would wear their pair. You contradict yourself and sell for $2000.

 

[aristotle604]

My gosh I feel bad for gator (I sound like I'm in a cartoon when I say that).  I will definitely look for a pair in his size as much as I look for my own... It's okay man, for every bad person, there's definitely someone good willing to step up (albeit I don't have the statistics on that....) but I really hope it works out for you.  

 

[thegatorviking]

There were 1,200 released and over 2 million people trying to get them according to the rep. That just makes me more sick to my stomach.

I've called NDC 3 times already, even tried to call the distribution center in Memphis. Can't believe this is still real.
