THE OFFICIAL KOBE 9 THREAD ****** WHAT THE KOBE RELEASED ******** BHM RELEASE 1/19

So these are limited yet everyone on NT somehow managed to cop a pair? Usually it's 'damn I can't believe how fast it sold out' or '30 seconds sold out lol'. I understand the manual countdown but still I'm not so sure about the limited thing.

I struck out on the EXTs last week but was able to get two pairs today (FTL and NDC).

I love the tongue and gold accents on these.

I don't think everyone on NT managed to cop. But this is a Kobe IX forum so likely to see a lot of success stories.

And I think with the countdown timer helps level the playing field a bit, then the line to get it in your cart, etc. Kinda slows down the whole checkout/selling out process.

I also think this summer we are seeing some stuff sell out slower just because the stream of releases has been endless. Most of us only have so much money. So we either deliberate longer, or just skip it.

Alright fair enough. I won a raffle for these and didn't need to try on NDC but I did for the fun of it and got it easy but removed from cart. I hear what you are saying though. Congrats to those who got through.

these pics helped a  little with my decision

Yeah these are pretty nice pics. Would of helped to convince me, and I don't really like the EM. I prefer the FK.

These would go so well with 49ers jerseys and other gear, no lie.

do these sites ship to us?

 

[anonymouse]

Yes they do, but can be a little costly. Still may work for some who don't want to buy their pair from ebay.

www[.]basket4ballers[.]com ships them to US for 34 Euro (45 USD) [Need to register to checkout, and when you do register, select "États-Unis" (U.S.) for county (pays - in french), google translate helps...]

www[.]kickz[.]com ships them to US for 51 Euro (67 USD)

I don't think a lot of people wanted these.  You'll see how fast a release can move when the red fks drop and they'll be more expensive than these.

I believe that they also have a tax refund. which is 20% off.

 I think this is the 20% off he was pertaining about. (Applies to non EU customers)...

 

[mastralf]

There is still a decent amount of sizes available on NDC and Eastbay

 

[mrdeeds]

Theres no refund, end doesn't charge americans vat(value added tax) so you already save the 20% when you purchase from them.

You don't have to do anything to get the 20% off.

Its a good day and feeling when i can wake up two hours after launch and still order without any hassle.
