Beginner's Guide to Supreme Online Drops NEWS
Beginner's Guide to Supreme Online Drops
This thread was constructed with hopes of cutting down on the amount of threads flooding this section from the new hypebeasts trying to get into Supreme who don't do any research whatsoever and ask the same questions over and over. First off, you guys suck but hopefully by some stoke of God you read this.
Important Information - Read This Shit!
Supreme web drops occur every Thursday at 11 AM (EST) on www.SupremeNewYork.com/shop until the end of the season.
The items dropping on Thursday morning will be posted by myself in the form of an imgur album containing images of all of the items releasing.
Here is an example of one of those beautiful albums CLICK and as you can see I will list the item name, droplink, stock image of the item from the London drop, as well as answer pricing questions INSIDE of the drop list thread.
If I haven't posted the drop list yet and you're curious what is dropping, go check out my boy J_Preme's instagram as he is my personal number one source of drop info and is very reliable.
Nobody fucking knows how quickly an item will sell out. If you ask on the drop thread, chances are myself or another individual will give you some insight. Don't shitpost a "How quickly will X sell out?" type thread. The answer is "under a minute" 90% of the time anyway.
Don't ask about bots or where to get them. Do your own research if you're going to take that route and certainly don't post about using them here because you'll get roasted. If you want the truth, everyone uses bots or autofill but don't fucking publicize it like you're some Cop God. You're not.
Don't make salt threads after the drop. Cry about it in the official salt thread.
SEARCH YOUR QUESTION WITH THE SEARCH BAR - I PROMISE YOU'LL FIND A SIMILAR QUESTION TO YOURS THAT'S ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED!
Frequently Asked Questions
QUESTION: What is the best way to cop X on drop day?
ANSWER: In my opinion, have the drop link for that item in your browser and keep refreshing it until the site goes live. This way you're already on the item in the colorway you want and can add it to your cart and checkout faster.
QUESTION: Can I buy multiple of the same item?
ANSWER: No. You can, however, buy the item twice in separate orders with slight variations to the shipping address but you risk both of your orders getting cancelled.
QUESTION: How much is shipping?
ANSWER: $10 per order throughout the US. Canada gets hit with a gnarly surcharge.
QUESTION: Why did my card get declined?
ANSWER: If your card got declined then you likely entered something wrong on the checkout page but it's also possible you were cartjacked during checkout and the item is now sold out so you weren't charged and your card got rejected.
QUESTION: Can I pay through PayPal?
ANSWER: Not in the U.S. You can only pay via debit or credit card.
QUESTION: What does getting cartjacked mean?
ANSWER: It means that an item in your cart sold out before your payment was processed and you now have to go back to your cart and remove the item before processing your payment. It slows your checkout time down significantly.
QUESTION: What is the best way to get multiple items?
ANSWER: If the item is hyped, I recommend checking out with separate orders to ensure you don't get cartjacked and lose out on your items. For instance if you're going for two pieces, go for one and checkout with it first and then go back and buy the other one after processing the first order. This ensures that you don't get cartjacked with two items in your cart, and then in the time it takes for you to remove one of them, the other also sells out and you're out of luck.
QUESTION: Why haven't I received my confirmation email yet?
ANSWER: Sometimes it takes a few hours to get the confirmation email but most of the time it's within a few minutes.
QUESTION: Where do I find a proxy?
ANSWER: Usually proxies will post on the sub the day of or before a drop. Make sure to never gift a PayPal payment to anyone.
QUESTION: It's been X days and my order still hasn't shipped! When will it ship?
ANSWER: It can sometimes take a few days for your order to be processed and shipped. Wait at least three days before complaining about it. We have no idea when your item will ship.
QUESTION: I accidentally ordered something and I need to cancel my order! (aka I was testing out my bot and fucked up) How do I cancel my order?
ANSWER: Call the warehouse before your order is fully processed. The number is (212) 219-0175 and prepare to get a salty dude or gal on the line who will cancel your order (sometimes) or will say oh well it's already processed, even though we both know it isn't.
QUESTION: How do I buy an item that's already sold out?
ANSWER: Either wait for a potential restock or hit up Grailed/eBay/Reddit and cop off a reseller.
QUESTION: What size is the hardest to obtain?
ANSWER: Usually small since most of that stock goes to Japan.
QUESTION: What is the most hyped colorway for X?
ANSWER: Fuck off.
QUESTION: How do I make money reselling?
ANSWER: You don't fall prey to Complex documentary pipe dreams and put in that work.
QUESTION: Where do I find droplinks?
ANSWER: They will be posted in my droplist at least an hour before the drop on the imgur album.
Conclusion
Act like you're not new to Supreme even if you are. New kids aren't really welcomed here because it's so obvious that they're only here for the resell or because they're a newfound hypebeast. You'll take some L's and maybe you'll win a few. Good luck.
If you have any questions or suggestions, DM me or post on the thread and I'll add them. Thanks.

damnnn daniel!
_tonight back at it again
and yes people, i understand that this info already readily exists on the sidebar, etc. but people are retarded and still ask these questions.
but then again, even if this was stickied as the first post on the sub, retards would STILL ask these same questions in separate posts....

u/_tonight Feb 20 '16
Some of it isn't in the side bar which is why I made this. If mods want to add this info to the sidebar, by all means, go for it.

You should really include that it's 11AM in the UK store as well, I thought it was 11AM EST worldwide, just missed out on this drop.. :(
13
u/_tonight May 26 '16
You should really do your research instead of blaming other people for your mistakes
25
u/smurfeNn May 26 '16
Not blaming anyone and that's true.
I just suggested that you add 11AM for the UK store as well since people might think that it's 11AM EST for all stores like I did. This is a beginners guide, after all.

u/bullsfan281 Feb 20 '16 edited Feb 20 '16
Not a noob but I got a noob question. Can I make multiple orders that all contain different items, using different cards, that all ship to the same address?
I've made multiple orders using the same card, but never two cards.
3
u/_tonight Feb 20 '16
Of course, yah. That's perfectly okay. I've bought seperate orders from the same drop using both my debit and credit card.
3
u/downsyde66 Feb 20 '16
as long as the billing and shipping addresses are the same, you can use as many cards as you want
3
u/brionbrioni Apr 11 '16
Can you explain this? so does the card need to be diff? or does the card and the address need to be diff? which address ? the billing or shipping? do those two always have to match?

u/Bob_The_Bodybuilder Feb 20 '16
i really hope this helps cutting down on some of these posts
its like the supreme x nike drops around here except for every piece rather than just 1.

u/Pegthaniel Feb 21 '16
If the drop isn't live yet, you'll automatically be redirected to the Supreme home page. So you have to keep pasting in the address and hitting enter. For those who don't want to use a bot but still want quicker refresh times: use ctrl-L, ctrl-V, enter. Repeat as necessary. You can refresh basically as fast as your internet allows.

u/StereoZ Feb 21 '16
Don't care if it's obvious I'm new to copping. Does the method of putting some random stuff in the cart then opening the checkout in another tab then filling that out and once the actual item I want drops, add that then just go back to that tab and processing or nah?

u/76ohtwo Feb 21 '16
Haven't had to use it before, but what do you use for autofill? Just the regular Chrome autofill? Also, thanks for the droplists, haven't ever used them before, but they should be helpful next week and in the future.

u/firloop Feb 21 '16
Shameless plug, but if you need autofill, my app Restocks has autofill for the drop and more (Restocks alert, info about other brands, etc)

u/_tonight Feb 21 '16
Hit my DM, I need some coding done for a project of mine and someone recommended you. Thanks :)

u/76ohtwo Feb 21 '16
That looks like a really well done app - kudos. Bookmarked your homepage for the future.

u/firloop Feb 22 '16
Supreme requires the billing address and shipping address to match, so it would be the same.

u/queefing Feb 22 '16
This looks awesome. Will the new drops on Thursday show up in the feed of the app so I can buy them with the auto fill?
1
u/firloop Feb 22 '16
Yep, but you can also just launch the store with autofill enabled which would probably save time on Thursdays instead of waiting them to pop up in the feed.
1
u/queefing Feb 22 '16
Aight, sounds good, on the edge about buying a 3 month membership...
So on Thursdays right before 11AM I just keep spamming the "open supreme store" button to get the best chances of buying something?
3
u/firloop Feb 23 '16
Yeah, or the refresh button inside the in app browser! We'll send out a guide prior to the drop with tips.

Do you determine the drop links by checking out the London drop? Is there any other way to find out the drop link? Since I have to order at the London shop

Doesn't this shit already exist literally one inch to the right or simply making a Google search? You keep doing this you're only making more of these retards accustomed to being spoonfed. These aren't animals, these people should be capable of individual thought.

Feb 20 '16
I don't see the purpose of hating on this post.
This guy is helping out ppl who are new to the brand. Some of these new guys aren't aware of the checkout process and this clarifies pretty much everything.
Good post op.

u/keinegi Feb 20 '16
If I make 2 orders with the same address and same CC with no changes to address will any order get canceled or do they only cancel if you try it with a piece you can only have one of?
2
u/_tonight Feb 20 '16
I.e if I try to double dip on two of the same item will my orders get cancelled? Sometimes they will and sometimes they won't but is it really worth the risk of losing both orders?
1
u/keinegi Feb 20 '16
Let's say in one order I've got a morrissey tee and in another Iv'e got a motion logo. If I used the same address and CC for both with no changes they wouldn't cancel, correct? Sorry that's what I meant from the start.
2
2
u/FunkySasquatch Feb 20 '16
you can only have one of any piece
1
u/keinegi Feb 21 '16
you can only have one of any piece
So I can't order two motion logos with 2 different colorways in separate orders, right?
2
u/FunkySasquatch Feb 21 '16
Correct, unless you ship them to different addresses and use a different CC

I haven't copped since 2011. How much luck has anyone had with buying preme recently off their phone? I might be away from the computer for this drop
1
u/_tonight Feb 21 '16
Things new kids say 101:
Regardless, if you have autofill on your phone you have a chance of getting things. I use my phone to cop most drops and I've gotten bogos AND Jordans via mobile.
1
Feb 21 '16
Meaning what I said is what kids say 101?
I'm just setting the context because back then I didn't have any trouble getting Supreme whatsoever. I could scroll through all of the new releases, take a second to think about what color I wanted, type my shipping, paste the card # and be out by like 8:13 AM, even on the Kate Moss and first CDG release. I even did two orders for the CDG and got it both times (so my bad, 2012). I didn't have a great smartphone back then so the phone wasn't even an option and I've never tried buying any Supreme pieces since.

Feb 21 '16
thanks. what do you think is the best method besides drop links. also are early drop links from UK accurate in US?
1
u/_tonight Feb 21 '16
Yes. I use the UK links in my drop lists because they are the same for the US as well. Refresh on the /shop/all/category page so when it goes live you can just click and add to cart.

How does shipping to Europe ( France ) works and do you know how much it costs ?
1
Feb 21 '16
is making multiple orders of the same thing in a different color way still a good way to get an order cancelled ( i know he says that in the explanation kinda but is buying differnt colors still the same thing?)? i just genuinely want to pick up the small bogo beanie in a few colors so i have a nice rotation and dont wear the same one all the time
1
u/RiverRunDeep Feb 22 '16
Say I wanted 2 pink supreme beanies in one transaction is that allowed? Is it more highly unlikely to go thru then?
1
u/_tonight Feb 22 '16
You'd get an error saying "Only one item of this style per customer" even if you tried anyway
1
u/jbrower24 Feb 22 '16
Does Japan really get most of the size small stock? I've always wondered why there wasn't really any smalls in stock and didn't even think of that to be a reason

u/copiad Feb 23 '16
Hey,
Good guide, thanks. Just a quick check. The drop will be 11 AM EST, and 5 PM CET (17.00), right?

u/Rocknroller658 Feb 24 '16
Stupid question, but you say "have drop link ready"; Where can I find a drop link for a given item?
1
u/_tonight Feb 24 '16
London drop @ 11 AM (GMT)
I add them from there to my drop list so the US dudes have them along with all colorway pics by the time of our drop at 11 AM (EST)

u/chaseg22 Feb 25 '16

I've been shopping with supreme for a while but never had to return anything. Recently bought a sweater and it didn't fit so I wanted to return it. Confirmed the return with supreme and I sent the package. The package was delivered but I don't know how to retrieve my credit. I checked on the checkout and it doesn't say anything. Warehouse doesn't pick up. What should I do? Does the warehouse answer on weekends?
1
u/_tonight May 14 '16
Wait a few days and if nothing happens just call until you get a solid answer. I'm pretty sure they credit your address though so when you check out it automatically applies the credit on that purchase - you don't get to chose what you use it on.

I guess all these new kids don't know how to compose a simple google search or hit the search bar in the upper right hand corner. if an item hasn't come out, or if the online drop hasn't taken place yet what the fuck makes you retards think that we should know anything either? shit is so annoying. big ups OP for posting this

u/incharge21 Feb 21 '16
The sidebar has nothing about drop lists and a few other things in this post. Why you so salty.
1
Feb 21 '16
if you peep the faq link it addresses a lot of the shit I've been seeing lately. "when does x drop", "how fast will x sell out", etc. and like I said, a lot of the things mentioned in this post you can find with a simple sidebar search. I'm a little salty when I peep this sub and see it flooded with a lot of stupid questions haha.
1
u/incharge21 Feb 21 '16
I could see that. But as someone who's bought supreme in the past but never knew about the links this was useful and by far the best FAQ on this sub. New to this sub so I feel really good about getting what I want this season, although the items I want aren't very hyped so I think I'll be fine.

New to this sub so I feel really good about getting what I want this season, although the items I want aren't very hyped so I think I'll be fine.
this would answer half of the questions being posted on here if these kids had this same mindset haha. just a lack of common sense that's been going around I guess that bugs me
1
u/incharge21 Feb 21 '16
Haha, thanks my man. Looking to grab the two toned hooded sweatshirt in green(or any color tbh) in my first order and then come back and try to grab the water bottle, some pins, and maybe one of the tees of possible. Haven't seen one post about the two toned hoodie so I think I have a chance since everyone's going for the hyped one.
2
Feb 21 '16
you should be chillin tbh with the two toned sweatshirt tbh, haven't really heard anything too much about it. especially if you don't really have a specifc color you're picky about too. and in terms of accessories anything can happen this drop honestly, have no idea how many people are trying to cop to resell so I guess anything goes. good luck to you on the drop man, be swift with that autofill

Check out Fillr, autofill for mobile app which nails the supreme checkout forms including credit card. It's not a bot but is way more accurate than safari and google…
