Jordan XI '72-10' Release Date: 12/12/15

[quad]

What are the prices lookin like at those sleeper locations?

Man I call them "sleeper" because its spots that I have had success with. They are your normal FTL, FNL, CHM, Villa etc....

And the prices will be retail!!! C'mon man that's a crazy question.

Oh okay, yea those are normal spots to me which are shady around my way but I still enter the raffles.

I figured you knew about a mom or pop spot that had them for $20-$30 over retail.

Although these will be fairly easy to get, I would still pay a lil over retail to lock down a pair right now ...hate entering raffles.

Too funny... One of the struggles of some married men who have shoe addiction problems.

Or if you know what you're doing , you marry a girl who goes and does the raffles for you.

Nah I just enter the raffles that I know isn't rigged. I'll let the D boys pay above retail. I'll grab online from FNL or EB if I strike out locally.

 

[bigmixx11]

Yea the NT sources would have already confirmed it but they said it wasn't happening.
To be honest tho, I'm indifferent due to the fact that I'm not dropping $500 regardless

Same way. I'd love to have the all red XI but I'm not dropping $500 for a pack just to get them.

 

[willie mcfly22]

For all people with Shiekhs around them. Have y'all ever won at different locations for the same release?? I never have and wondering if you enter different locations, do they void ya entries??? Any info on that....

Yes I have won from 2 different sheikhs location for the Gamma XI. But that's when there raffle system was fairly new so it was probably hard for them to weed out multiple winners also my name can be changed to like 3 different ways. Good luck on the hunt.

Got ya. Thanks

If the XX9 in the pack resembles the PS version, I'd be tempted to buy the pack and sell the Melo for $400. Get that XX9 for $100.

simple solution to the problem = only 1 jordan per month, or maybe only 1 every 3 months. boom now they can soike production numbers, still sell out, jordan brand will be loved, and they will not have to continue retroing things over and over and over again

I like it. I would definitely be happy if they did this.

Touché... And we have the same show size, so if you double/triple up feel free to reach out to me. She's not a big fan of doing that grind work... She's done it, but not without voicing her opinion more than once.

While I was entering a raffle a guy came in and said he wanted to do a ticket for the Space Jams.

In and out the mall in 20mis. Most folks still in school or at work. It's always funny to me how different these shoe store employees act this time of year. Like they raffling off gold bars or somthin...jus tell me when you callin and I'm out. Don't need a page worth of rules and regulations

Listen I work at FTL and the ONLY reason we do this is bc ppl wanna act different when shoes come out so we let them know actually this rules so there isn't any problems when the shoes release

 

[ragone408]

Relatively easy this year compared to last(no half hour line), got some tickets for HOH valley fair and the champs sports. I don't think people are up to date that the release date changed.

 

[apthekid]

Sales haven't plummeted tho

Especially the holiday XIs. They sell out in store. It's the resell value that has gone down which Nike could care less about.

"Sales plummeting" was not the correct term.


...But the idea that sales have been consistent YOY vs last year doesn't seem right to me. Obviously, this is all proprietary information that only Nike employees have access to, but the fact that there are still soo many Aqua 8s (historically a big release for Nike) and all of this summer's releases are still available for retail at the big chains...all points to declining sales.

Maybe Nike produced more 8s this year than 6s last year and even with the amount of unsold stock, they still sold more than last year...that's a possibility...just not the possibility that seems the most likely to me.

The stock price is still climbing, which is great (I own some Nike stock), but I have a feeling that is more because of Nike Apparel growing so much more so than Jordan brand.


Also, resell price is always a good indication of popularity (retail sales).

 

[clemente821]

All the resellers are out. XI are always crazy....... People looking to make a quick buck. I wonder where these will settle in a few weeks

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

 
Chrome VIIIs moved up to the 19th now.

Something is up 

 

 

[Champagne_Taste]

Why they pushed it up a week! My pockets can't take this. Then the chromes come out the week after. Even though I hate it , it was really smart of Nike. They don't have to shell out so many gift cards dealing with one of the sh**est companies in fed ex not delivering the shoes on time and all of the people who miss out on the 11s will get the 8s.

My hoh lets me buy then return a few days later and use military discount on shoes. I hope I can get through on the Melo pack of they actually release . I'll keep the 29s if they have the big jump man like the infrareds.

 

[kixquestions]

is it too late to get a raffle ticket

 

[iduser4]
