nah bullsh$t.. otherwise it would have been in the CT best sellers section. As spo_gen said they won't do any pre-order on it, and like past years J XIs releases on CT, they should drop'em around the 22....

Unless you could buy now and they ship first thing on Friday, but that means people won't get them till way after xmas.
If they are shipping them early, how come they were allowed to do so? Other stores( including where I work) have been told under NO CIRCUMSTANCES that they can be sold BEFORE the 23rd, even though we have the stock instore since last week Wednesday.

All gone to the US buyers from the look of Niketalk!! Some buying up to 3 pairs!! Think releases like this should held for UK buyers first as its hard enough to get these sorts of releases anyway..............

cant say with certainty but you will probably find that the link was added witht he entire selction ready to go at 00:01 Friday, the site would be pre-filled so that no hicups occur (again i imagine) but not made live. It is possible the conchords were made live - or were 'discovered' on the site possibly through the site linking "you might like these"

orders then flew in but i cant see them being honoured at all - most likely all will be cancelled.

that is really strange i agree - after all i know personally that CT are usually in the office at a quarter past midnight working hard so would have def seen your knee jerk reaction to the whole thing....and i know they get in to work around about 6am in order to check the forum make the shoes and send out all the parcels.....very very strange indeed...

Hi all. We messed up! There's loads in stock. We accidentally put a link live (not a lie) without text or images so we ended up selling some. Some single shoe pre-orders will be honoured, but there's lots for sale on Friday.

now that i agree with - that 00:01 thing is really annoying as it often warrants a pissed purchase and tonnes of cancellations the next day meaning a trickle of sizes coming back on to the site

Pissed purchases are great. A guy I used to work with once bought a Penny Black stamp via ebay after a night out. He had no idea he'd done it until the special delivery arrived.

Here an idea as CT have sold half there stock to the US why not do the first 2 hrs for UK/EU orders only cos just read on NT that they are all planning to blast the site for a pair as it 4 hrs before there release.

US Jordaners suxx for this release, they all planned to cop at least 3/4 pairs and many of'em are gonna resell some, furthermore USA got a bigger stock than EU...

I got my TIA voucher code which is waiting to be used to cop them long awaited Concords...

yO NTers DO NOT steal my pair or I'm gonna shoot y 'all :p...

That idea for EU buyers only is really good. The CT team should look into that. They already have tons of sneaker stores selling these and on top of that they get 20% VAT discount. That is some BS!

should be pre order for EU based CT members. If the site crashes @ 00.01 and I can't grab some due to yank intervention I am going to be well p*ssed off.

Not worried about the amount in the country, but will we be able to order a pair with the volume of people gonna try and order off here stateside as soon as they drop.

Even if there are gazillions of them, it seems that every man and his dog are buying five pairs each. Hopefully I am just fretting about nothing and am trying not to be dismayed by all the frenzied nature of this release. Was the Space Jam release on the same par?... not from my memory anyways...

American resellers are dumbass mate and not to offence the American community on CT and I learn on some places that some guys are willing to wait their drop and buy them for 240 bucks on ebay lol^^... I just want to buy one pair from CT with my voucher code that's it..

Another reason why the US contingent might want to jump on the CT release is that UK sites/shops sell them at the RRP. From what I can gather, shops in America can charge what they like for trainer releases, and are all to willing to hike the prices up if they think there's enough demand.

I know this happens for SB releases, so I assume the same is true for Jordans.

So if there's a place they can grab them online for retail, rather than queue for days to get ripped off, I can see why they're watching this place closely.

Those Americans should just stay off these EU sites. Plain and simple. That pricing problem in the USA is only in the mom and pop stores, the Footlockers etc will charge retail, nothing more nothing less.

I think the US re-sellers are thinking (like with the Space Jam) in 3 years time these could easily sell for 2-3 times retail. And these Yanks get free international shipping from CT so plenty of profit margin.

I want two pairs. As I am using the voucher on one, I would like to give CT the business on the second pair (show them a bit of loyalty). Seems like CT are not doing the same back to us, the local trainer\sneaker scene though? Anyway let's see how it plays out.
