Nike GOLD

Connor McKendry · Sep 26, 2019

Hello everyone, I am currently an intern at Nike and would like to gauge interest in a new idea called Nike GOLD. This would be an addition to our SNKRS app which would be a paid membership (about $10 per month) to get an option for early release items. For example on every new sneaker drop, you would receive a 2 minute period before the general population on the app could buy the product. Please comment on this post YES or NO and any suggestions you may have about this new idea. Thank you

NO, **** rich kids and people with bots, they would just buy up everything. This is a terrible idea. I hope nothing like it ever happens.

This is just another source of potential revenue for greedy *** Nike. What, pay $10 a month to increase your likelihood of getting a limited release by 1%? No thanks. How about implementing a pre order system instead so that supply meets demand? But of course Nike won't do that because they just love artificially induced demand from scarcity.
