Thought you guys might find this interesting.  This is a case I have currently open with Paypal in a dispute with MarqueeSole.

I received my Lebron 9 PS Elite South Beaches in an unmarked Jordan box, no paper, no additional pink laces and the shoes had some markings on them.

Message copied and pasted from Paypal.

1. Lebron 9 South Beach did not come with original box

2. Lebron 9 South Beach did not come with the original additional pink laces

3. Lebron 9 South Beach has scratches on side of shoe and on the Nike swoosh as there is paint chipping.

MC Workshop International USA Inc. denied XXXX's request for a $530.00 USD refund.

We shipped you the exact shoes with green laces as advertised on the product link: http://www.marqueesole.com/showProduct.php?pid=193 What you see there, is what you get. Straight forward, and plain simple. Thank you!

1. You did not fully disclose that the shoes did not come without the original box or the pink shoelaces. Any reputable dealer would not describe their shoes as "100% authentic" and send out the shoes without full original packaging. If so, this should be FULLY DISCLOSED in the actual listing.

2. The shoes are damaged PLAIN AND SIMPLE. There is paint chipping in multiple locations on the shoes

3. I own a shoe store myself, I cannot sell these to any customer as I am a reputable retailer myself unlike MarqueeSole.

4. Shipping did not take the 3 day grace period as indicated on the website PLAIN AND SIMPLE. . http://www.marqueesole.com/shipping.php . The seller indicated a 3 day grace period before actually shipping the item. I ordered the shoes on 5/8 and did not receive info on the shipping until 5/14, only to find out that half my order was cancelled. The seller seems to have forgotten that. My money was on hold for 6 days before half my order was refunded, not to mention it was shipped out late.

I stopped reading after I found out you were a reseller. But really, I hope you get your money back and learn from this mistake. Most of these early release sites are known to sell B-grades for 'Elite" prices. You were the recipient of a pair.

Hahaha!
 
Shoulda done more homework on your part before you invested half a stack on a known B-grade site. good luck on getting the $ back i guess
 
It's not about homework or research or whatever.  I buy a lot of shoes from a lot of retailers, ebay, etc. I'm simply posting this to help others who are considering buying shoes from MarqueeSole.  I've always been curious myself about this site.  My $$$ is covered under Paypal protection so I'm not overly concerned about getting my money back.  I'm just interested in hearing if anyone has had any or heard of any similiar experiences. 
 
I've heard more bad stories than good about them. And they usually end up like this too. (Shoes showed up with flaws and all of that other shiestiness.) But I hope everything works out for you.

And any pics of the scratches on them?
 
Thanks for the heads up. I will never be purchasing from that website. Shoes came in a Jordan box eh smdh

those are still legit though just came in bad flaw condition, those are the prices you get if you buy from early release websites like marquesole, air randy, vmvinc, sole up , etc
 
That's why I'd rather take a stab and buy for it retail thru NDC or FL/Champs, etc.. on release date than to be hit over the head by a reseller that take great pics. There have been threads explaining ad nauseam on Marqueesole or similar sites about their practices ( month early release date and twice the price plus shipping )- screw that! I don't need them that bad! Besides, when Marqueesole first started out, you could bet that a particular shoe WASN'T going to be released or limited. Now, it's a safe bet that, if they get it, it's going to be a GR!
 
Never buy from any of these early release. They're either fake or b-grades and they cost twice as much as a real pair costs from a legit retailer
 
I just have one question,If you cop for that much as a retailer how much are you selling them for?
 
All scammers like Air randy and Jay from SDS, stay away from early release Overseas VARIANT sites people.

THIS WHOLE ISSUE WAS BEATEN TO DEATH BY ME AND OTHERS IN THE CONCORD THREAD MANY TIMES. MARQUEESOLE AND MOST OF THOSE OVERSEAS CHINA SITES SELLS FAKES, BGRADES, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL THEM FOR HIGH PRICES BECAUSE "YOU ARE GETTING THEM EARLY".

I WOULD EVEN GO AS FAR AS SAYING NONE OF THE EARLY SELLING SITES BASED IN CHINA ARE LEGIT. NOT A SINGLE ONE.

MANY PEOPLE WOULD SWEAR BY THEM BUT I'VE LEARNED MY LESSON FROM THEM AND AIR RANDY/\ A.K.A. AIR KNIGHT NOW

, VMV, PROMO SHOES, ETC, ETC.

BUYER BEWARE. TAKE IT AS A LESSON LEARNED.
 
Yeah, I agree with Memph ... you have to stay away from the early releases. It's an unnecessary gamble. Fortunately for me, I got lucky w/ the Concords. I don't want to try my luck again though -- and I'm very tempted to have the Olympic 6 and 7s + Mars 4's early.
