If they ship from New Zealand or most of the South Ring ( Asia islands) , Australia , stay away, most will be knockoffs and fakes. Hope this helps a little.

i live in asia(jakarta, indonesia) and i copped my pairs from a nike's official retailer here in my country. so my pairs dont have that MSRP tag like u guys have in the states.
lets say i im gonna sell my cords here on NT or ebay or wherever, because im from asia my pairs are considered knockoffs and fakes?

damn man that definitely sucks..

My man... why would you think they weren't real if they were from a Nike authorized Dealer... if you have pairs from overseas... they wouldn't have the MSRP tag on it.
Maybe I should start spreading these myths so all you guys with size 11's sell yours to me... 

Feel free... I'll buy them up... ...Im sure others would gladly take your other sizes off your hands.. OR keep them and enjoy the Authentic pairs you have sir.

dont worry, i know they're 100% real man.

i just dont agree with what Lebronh8er just said. if we're considered selling fakes just because we're from asia region, that would suck big time..

damn, still in the strike out crew.... bout to give up on the 2011 concords, and just settle with a clean vvnds pair of 2000's for a cheaper price than a pair of reseller priced 2011 concords! Good idea or wait till mid year 2012 for prices to fall near retail (180)

 

[nikedealer]

Yeah... that was def. an irresponsible hinging on absurd statement...

Im glad ijapino is being very responsible in not tagging just ANYONE as a site who sells fakes based on opinions. I respect folks like ZZZzz cause I've bought pairs from him... but I wouldn't want someone coming out saying HE sells fakes just because they THINK he does..... its not right...

Some places however have been egregious..


I talked to some of my boys on Campus in the Beav yesterday about this and yes... all boxes, paper and cuts wont be the same... Even they dont know what happened to all the B Grades which usually end up in an Outlet. This could very well be something people think about.. B Grades being sold as A Grades.. yet not stamped.. which Outlets usually do.

Who knows... That would explain the deflated air bag for sure.

You might as well scoop those 2000s up. I doubt these will ever drop down to retail.

ohh yea. salty re-sellers have now set up reserve prices on their acutions because of the lower price they're going for. Plus, i think all the random new ebayers who have little to no feedback have lowerd their buy it now price and started offering returns as money back as a way to compensate for their poor feedback score.

in my size (7.5), they've already dropped to $240-260. I say $230 is the lowest they'll drop.

Agreed.. I've been tracking them as well...and average wins were going for 370 to 390 a few weeks ago..and more in some cases before.. and now they are between 300 to 320...
Like Walmart... watch the prices fall...... its all about patience...and when the next release happens.. folks need their ends and know they aint wearing all the pairs they have.

 

[dtrain12]

for those with CT orders stuck in NY customs,.. how did you go about paying for duty or custom fees?

What's funny is the cats in the buy/sell forum that posted their Concords up THE DAY AFTER RELEASE for $475-$600....and still haven't sold them.

go to your local CL & email every person with your sz your max offer & im sure you will have some responses willing to take the offer.. if i had some more money i could easily have 3-6 more pairs off CL using the exact method i just said.... & all are $260 & under

This is the truth y'all. I have people on CL textingbme back asking if I'm still interested. Telling me they are going to do a "quicksale" lol, and wanted to offer me a chance to get them first. I mean come on. Even had people say trades only since people are giving them lowball offers.the reseller still sitting on these arent REAL resellers just dudes who copped multiples to flip off the hype...they will NEED to part with them especially if they are planning to get Chi X's to resell

 

[debso]

so mentalkicks shipped my order. i emailed them at info@mentalkicks about my order and how i wanted it cancelled and my money refunded to my card...the email came back as being unable to be delivered because the address could not be found.

saw on NT where somebody just emailed them at order@mentalkicks.com and was able to get a refund. i want to know why the site has contact us at info@mentalkicks on their site if thats not where you're supposed to contact them? and so will AMEX if i don't get my $$*!+$@ money back.

i don't have time to search 234324 pages to see that mentalkicks isn't legit. i wish the person that posted that link to the restock mentioned that in the same post that they put the link in during the restock as a fair warning. i hate knowing i could lose any part of my 309.00 over this and learning this after the fact that i ordered.

me and others wouldn't be so desperate (and cop from these questionable sites) if this whole release went differently. #*#@%% copping 57 pairs to flip and #*#@%% like me can't even get one pair to rock for anything under 350-400 dollars. #*#@%% even copping multiple pairs in these restocks. like #++%, can a +++#$ just get one pair without a reseller $$*!+$@ up the whole #++%???????

Calm down my man.. back away from the ledge.....
You can only blame the resellers not Nike for the release.

As for Mental Kicks and the authenticity of their kicks.. you cant blame the person who posted... but YOU have to do the research needed to  be happy and content with your purchase.  No person is more responsible for what they purchase than the consumer themselves.

 

[definition of dopeness]

My Ec order is already here and out for delivery.
I noticed after my package got hit with a customs delay
The weight on the site doubled. Willing to bet these guys cut open
The boxes and repackaged them again lol.

I should have em here within the hour at the office, btw
U guys that ordered multiples what is the general weight of
The package?

 

[tipsy]

My second pair from Snipes has been in customs for like 2 weeks now

. My first pair was in and out within a few days. Hopefully my box hasnt been cut open

oh, i'm calm.

think about it like this. who the @%#$ wants to pay 309 dollars for b grades and/or fakes?

why the hell didn't the person that posted the link mention that mentalkicks isn't:

a. legit
b. reputable
c. the best communicator
d. all of the above

??

if the cement III's dropped at midnight and i posted a link to some fake site with see through III's and said yeah you could cop here, would %*++%+ not be like df??

anyway i still blame nike for this release as well as the reseller. both parties %%%!@* this release up for a lot of ppl.

i blame myself for having a job and not being able to stand outside for 15 hours to cop these. and not having my finger superglued to the F5 key on my keyboard to sit at home and be able to snipe a pair from the 3243243 resellers out there. and not staying up all night to be able to get a pair from the restocks from european sites that i've never heard of.

i blame myself for not being able to research mentalkicks in .000005 seconds before their restock vaporized like every other site.

FOH at be happy with my purchase. $@%@@ please.

 

[aquagrape2345]

THose in NYC waiting on their pairs call aramex. That should solve all of your issues and have your kicks to your home on the next day.

 

[debso]

after i dispute the charges and get my money back i should send the sneakers back to these sons of !%$*#@# stuffed with 309 dollars in monopoly money. they should pay ME money for taking time out of my day to go to the post office to ship these back.

 

[upandcoming32]

@ some of these replies....prices may have dipped $30-50 but isnt the MAJORITY....youre only looking at one market (ebay)....there are lots of people here in NY (and prob. elsewhere) still dishing $325-375 LOCALLY which is equivalent to $4-450 on ebay since there are ebay and paypal fees + shipping costs

prices will dip slightly (as with every release), but once spring/summer comes around and thereafter,prices will be right back up, and possibly higher than the $375-400 they were going for the first weekend after RD since the market wont be flooded like it was/is now
