Fake Sneakers Vol. Goodwill/Homeless

if the dude is shopping at goodwill for some fresh kicks he gets what he paid for. if he thinks they're real then finds out they're fakehe's only out 10-20 dollars. most people shopping at goodwill aren't going there to find steals on some shoes anyway and if they are they should knowwhat they're looking for. In the end they're shoes....you walk in them and most Goodwill shoppers won't care if they're "real" ornot.
 
Fake ? are the even DS NIB ?


I would rather go barefoot.

Actually bombiggidy, just because a person shops at goodwill doesn't mean he'll be coming across sneakers of poor quality.


Some dude on NT found a pair of DS Zoom Lebron 3 Dunkmans....a $1000 dollar pair of sneakers. That wasn't his only find either, dude has found a couplegrails at goodwill.


I my self donate DS shoes, no grails, but some semi-heat Jordans n Nikes....

i actually remember that post. I wasn't implying that all shoes at Goodwill, or any thrift store for that matter, are beat or fake. You can indeed findsome deals and even steals. I'm just saying that the average person isn't into sneakers like us and usually doesn't know or care if the shoe is anauthentic JB/Nike/etc. product.
 
Shopping at goodwill doesn't mean you are poor. Like sneakerheathen said, people have found HEAT at goodwill shops. Plus people just shop there to savemoney. I have seen plenty of upper middle class people go to goodwill.

They sure aren't. Fakes are fakes.

This is exactly why i stopped collecting sneakers.

Who gives a damn if the shoes are real? i don't rock fakes, never have.

Let them do them, stop taking it so seriously. They aren't imposing there fakness on you so why do you care?

"This is why I stopped collecting. I simply couldn't deal with people sharing their opinion on shoes. What they said really bothered and upset me."

Did I say I cared? I simply said fakes are fakes but I also said give them the shoes since they need them. I don't call dudes out on fakes unless they come at me with some noise. I don't care why you stopped. It doesn't mean anything to me. I simply said fakes are fakes. Deal with it.

Shoes are shoes I guess. Some people try to hard to be "neo thinkers". "I just stop collecting because it got to serious"

. We talking about a relationship?
Now dont go putting words in my mouth. I stopped collecting because of clowns like the OP, they act like its a utter disgrace to rock some fakeswhen its not the case. Having to think twice about donating some shoes to someone who needs them because they aren't authentic? Seriously grow up. Peopleact like the shoes make the person. I stopped collected because the whole sneaker culture is a joke now.

And the way you came off by saying that shoes aren't shoes made you seem like a typical 16yr old boy, not saying that you are but with that statement itsure made you seem like it.
 
Let's see some pics of homeless cats rocking fake J's. That would be pretty entertaining. BTW, I donate my kicks I no longer rock to my relativesPhilippines. Most cats there don't got sneakers and play ball all day in thong sandals.

No I meant as in performance and reliability. I've heard horror stories about. Thats what I meant. I still wouldn't rock them but I'ddonate them because there are people who need them. Sorry for my approach. I thought some of what I said was funny though

You don't have to be broke/poor/homeless to shop at a thrift store. I've personally copped MANY pairs of heat from Goodwill..

ur the one that looks like a typical 16 year old boy because u keep trying to come at people in this thread. i was mainly asking about Goodwillbecause I know that a lot of people that shop there are not poor and I wanted to get some other peoples take on the situation. ur the reason people stop goingon NT because u can't just give and answer or ur opinion and keep it moving, u have to keep checking ur posts and trying to start arguments to try and getyour e-fame up. having said that this will be my last response to this thread...i'm gonna give them to the homeless guy around the corner.
 
i would just leave them in an area near where homeless people walk. include a note, and a PB&J sandwich.. make a man smile

This man speaks the truth.

I don't think they care if the shoes are real or not. Do a good deed and give the shoes away.
