Surprised they're not charging more. They're selling FLIP III's for 309. Their prices are always crazy.

Don't quote me again jerk lol jk man you are winning crossing fingers man I can get a price like that. Dropping 200 isn't want a want to do but that's my last resort sns and line up if that fails on to the next one. Resellers will never get my money
retail is $175 with tax and shipping you will pay $200 in the states and deal with all the hassle anyway. if you have free shipping and dont pay tax isnt $25 worth not waiting in line for hours?

It seems some people aren't familiar with the concept of opportunity cost....what is your time worth and what could you be doing with it instead of something else...
If you make $40 an hour at work, what is $25 to make sure you don't have to waste your time in the cold waiting or staying up hovering on the sites at midnight...
Not everyone on NT/ISS are students and most have careers...in AZ with tax it was going to be around $195-205 and I paid $198 to get it from the U.K.
Personally, I would have paid even more to sleep in and not worry, and drink my coffee watching pics uploaded of the chaos from those younger and more couragous...
I may not have my shoes in hand on the 23rd, but knowing they are legit, coming double boxed and paid less than retail is worth $$ to me...
Just because something has an MSRP of $180 means nothing...value is the amount one is willing to pay....for some that is $200 and for others $300 because of whatever reason...
When BMW releases a limited edition car for an MSRP and people pay over that, no one complains...value is the worth to the purchaser....
To those griping about people sharing the sites, you really need to step off, SOPA hasn't passed so don't censor what is posted on the internet...not everyone has a 3000+ post count
of "me too" "hot fire" "one to rock and one to stock".....most NT'ers ARE lurkers and might only post when they have some relevance to add to the conversation....
-sorry...I'll get off my soap box now.....
I am sure that there are a at least a couple more U.K./Euro sites yet to post pre-orders....Good luck to all!
Quoted and accurate.

This man speaks the truth. $25 or whatever is worth more than going crazy trying to get it for retail. I have a gift card that I have been holding for Eastbay and I am hoping I can grab a pair there. But if not there is no way I am going out in the morning all over the place wasting time, gas, etc trying to get lucky on a pair. I ordered 2 pairs online today from different sites hoping that at least one comes through. As long as I have 1 pair I am good, if I get 2 than thats great too. If I can get my pair off Eastbay, then I will probably sell the overseas ones, but not for crazy markups, just fair valueOriginally Posted by Litflynt

I'm here, taking care of my 2 small kids (2 yrs old & 6 mos. old). Sorry I can't spend all my time posting on here with you, but thanks to NT I was able to cop my ONE pair because there is no way in hell I would be able to camp out for some shoes.

Milk didnt show any changes in their size availability after how long time had passed.
And with all the lurkers here (you guys suck by the way and here is a big F-U from me, sign on and retaliate if you want so you come out of your hiding place), I'm sure folks kept on copping without Milk updating the site so who knows how many they actually had and how many cancellations they will send out.
There seems to be a good amount of availability, but each person seems to want AT LEAST 2-3.

This release on the 23rd is going to be pandemonium (not for me though). It's going to be a lot of disappointed people on that day. And because of how fast theyre selling from overseas, I wouldn't count on restocks. This has to be the biggest Air Jordan release in the past 5 years...this even beats the original DMP pack. If I remember correctly, most people just wanted that pack anyway for the XIs and few even liked the VIs at first

leads to a loss in quality....

that doesn't negate the fact of what they hold to the buyer.....

if your in school, you might not understand what it means to work 40-50 hours a week....I paid more for Jordans (I didn't but am making a point) because I have better things to do than wait in line...
I pay someone to cut my grass because I don't have time or am doing something I put more value in...
I don't wash my car because the 15 min it takes is an email I can fire off being more efficent at work....
I grew up dirt poor and now that I am successful, it is crazy to hear the other side of the fence sometimes.... but your right, perspective is a two way street....
