WOW at 15 dollars for those VIIIs

If I wasnt leaving the country I would def pick up a pair, I dont even care about them not fitting, Id still buy them for 15.

I'm STILL Waiting For The Day That I'm Actually Impressed By The Service I Receive From A Nike Employee..... Called Up Castle Rock Today To Check On A Size Medium In The "In Penny We Trust" Tee In The Black Colorway..... This Dumb (Blonde I Assume) Answers The Phone, "Thanks For Calling Nike, How Can I Help You"..... I Ask Her For The Specific Tee I'm Looking For And Before She Even Tries Looking For The Thing She Says "Not Sure We GotThose"...... So She Puts The Phone Down For LITERALLY 5 Seconds As She Pretends To "Look" For The Item.... Picks The Phone Back Up And Proceeds To Tell Me "Sir, We Never Received Any Shirts Like That Here At Our Store"......... Knowing That She Half Assed Looked For The Shirt, I Say To Her, "ACTUALLY You Did Have The Shirts, Seeing As A Buddy Was Just In There On Sunday And Laid Eyes On Them Himself, Now Could You Please Go LOOK On The Floor For The Shirt As I Know It's There."....... Sure Enough She Leaves For A Few, And Comes Back With "Sir, It Looks Like We Were Able To Find Them" (As If They Were Somewhere Hidden In The Back

)........ Like FOR REAL Nike, You Should Think About Hiring Competint Workers To Your Force, Whom Are Willing To Actually DO THEIR JOBS!..... It's Bad Enough The Workers We Have To Deal With At Places Like Footlocker, Finishline Etc..... But Now YOU TOO?!?!?!?

yea this is the case with almost any large retail store or provider. dude who helped me at milpitas was super helpful tho. super accommodating. veryfriendly. was willing to do whatever (nh). and very thorough with his knowledge of the process.

Anyone see any Nike Zoom BB (the first ones) at any outlets?

I know it might seem a little outdated but I regret not picking them up when outlets were loaded with them.

Please let me know (sz. 9.5)

thanks

yes, exactly. and if you don't like to lie, then you can call your local factory store, ask for what you're looking for, and if they saythey don't have it, ask if they can search other stores, now you've legitimately used Nikefind and should be able to get your free shipping withouthaving to fib. heh.


by the way, you guys might wanna check your niketowns. say 2 colorways of those zoom fp for about $50 as well as freshwater am95 for $85 last week....

 

[hova1982]

ok update... unless you guys know something different NO OUTLETS ARE SELLING THE 8's for $14.99 anymore ,i called about 10 stores and the excuse is eitherthey arent $14.99 or they just wont ship. one manager said that the store that marked them down to only had a few left so they can do that but they have a tonof them so they have to sell for $50

hagerstown told me that they could only look up shoes at their store and not other stores (i know its BS).
happened to me cause i was trying to use nikefind to get the 3/20 pack for my girl. so i called hagerstown to have them stock locate and they wouldnt help out.i ended up paying 8 bucks for shipping but it was whatever.... i still paid like 70 shipped for the shoes.

Yes they are Women's Sizes. I bought a Sz 11 which is equivalent to a Mens 9.5

 

[gwaldo88]

Funny how all of a sudden we have been jumping on womans shoes with the VIII's and now these joints. I feel like womans shoes are cheaper alot of timestoo.

 

[nflowshoe]

You guys jumping on the womens viiis, I know they are 15 dollars but what are you possibily gonna wear those with without looking like a push up ice cream ?
