they sell legit kicks but some of them are shady pairs (we don't really know those are fakes or legit ) maybe u can buy kobe and other nike from their websites but if u planning to buy AJ better stay away from them (most of their AJ kicks are early release version)

Man don't buy BC3's from them. You can get them so much cheaper off of ebay. These guys charge like $40 for shipping too.

And i just checked their site, they don't even have them in stock

As far as I understand, when Nike makes an order to their affiliate sweatshop in China, that factory first produces a few hundreds of "pre-production" pairs, and then the Nike inspector comes in, checks the product and says "oh great, start working triple shifts these are going to production but before you do please change the stitching on the heel logo" or whatever , so those first pre-production "samples" are considered B grade shoes, even tho they might be identical to what the Nike.com or Footlocker sells after their official release date.

this seems like the most logical answer/reasoning i've heard yet. can anyone confirm this?
