Her answer was "Sorry sir nike can only take complaints on nike owned stores."
So they do really care what happens.

I'm sorry but this sneakgeekz guy is so pissed about the products JB is putting out than why would he spend more than retail to get these early. I don't understand this guy at all. If you complain about Jordan Brand that much than stop buying their products.

Your probably talking to the wrong people. WHAT WOULD A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP KNOW ABOUT THE REGULATIONS AND RULES ABOUT SELLING JORDANS EARLY TO CUSTOMERS? they are not the ones who sit down with store owners and talk to them about what they are receiving. I got two mom n pop shops that I go to. I already picked up the nubuck 12 and the package yesterday. I was told by both of them that if I expose where I got them early, then Nike would come down on them and maybe a suspension. Or loss of their JB/Nike account. Have you ever read on Jordan boxes back then when they used to have stickers on them that said, "do not sell before release date blah blah blah" what sneakgeekz is saying is right..anyways..you had a problem with that store so you called on Nike to tell them that a store was selling it early? That right there sounds like you don't got the mouth piece to get close with them so they could hold a pair for you, so you went and told on them. Straight sucka.
But there's a lot of people that don't know.Originally Posted by deathmetaldbh

It is a longer story then what I quickly put up, cause I didn't feel like writing a novel, but here u go SUCKA, I should of said the I also called Nike Corporate offices, and was told the same thing, the problem with the mom and pop shop was, that I am in smaller market so they are the only mom and pops shop in our area, thats right only one and yes I sure I did my research and I do have connects, the problem is that with everything that released last year and the beginning of this year they got greedy and wanted to start taxing on releases when the hype of the 11/12 cdp, so when those released it changed the way that the store did business, I was regular, always copped jordan and nike retro relaeses from them for retail, they never even charged tax, for over two years I have copped from them, then all of sudden whee the 11/12 pack comes, the eggplants, griffeys, 1/2 cent the want to put $100 on top reatil. I was very mad tried talking to the owners and working something out but was ignored, basically they said if i did not buy them for the price the wanted someone else will, they were right cause I have never paid over retail for any shoes and have over 150 pairs, so once I was treated that way my only option was to never return too that store and to report them to nike, which is what is did, and nike does not care, if you want to think they do then go ahead and keep dreaming, but after they allocate pairs to store the could care less they got there money, I do have a mouth piece and I do have connects, but I am also very busy business man and do not always have the time to call up, check up, u know kiss a$# with the shoe store employees so they will "hold me a pair" of shoes that they are not supposed be selling until that Saturday, come on man, that the whole reason for the release date so the people have a fair chance to purchase and for JB to control some more, and by the way I still get all my stuff early its is just a little more work for me know, yeah I already got the pack and the nubuck 12 earlier this week, and the griffey's last week, SUCKA
