So I ordered the 88 cement 3s from this guy about 3 months ago, i received them about a week later. Took them out and right away knew they were not legit. Compared them right next to my ds pair from Nike.com and they were so off....Color, Shape of shoe, elephant print, even the cement print paper. 

So i email him asking for a refund stating i believe these are not real. He says send them back, so i ship them thru ups with confimation and whatnot. They get delivered back to him within a week. I wait two weeks, no refund. 

I email him about 2-3 times before I get a response asking a dumb question like "What is your name on order" or "what shoes did u return" when i specifically wrote all the info in the email, not to mention it was in a chain of emails.

Then he says "i will process the return", a week goes by, nothing....

Another series of 2-3 emails and i get a response of "processing return now"...2 weeks later get my bill and no refund.

Email him about 4-5 times again and i get a response saying " i can't find your transaction"

Send him a couple more emails and nothing. It has been 2 weeks since i last had contact with him.

I have all these emails and even the tracking receipt showing i sent item back to him as well as his postage from package when he sent it to me. 

What do u guys suggest I do, I am going to contact my credit card company and try to get the money back.

and for the record, i never once used any kind of language or any threats until my last email in which i stated that i will talk to my cc company and let people know what kind of business he is running. 
 
maybe you could also file a complaint with the better business bureau along with your credit card company

I also never trusted him
 
thats a good suggestion, i will do that. at this point im considering making a youtube video, posting in comments of every one of his video. ill even post the emails on here so u guys can see the responses. 
 
No offense but this has been pretty well known for awhile. Should have done a bit more digging in before pulling the trigger. He has **** riders that vouch for him and are too stupid to know that grey  market = fake, so you got to look to the  people with actual brains if you wanted to legit check this source. lesson learned I guess

well its not so much the fact that he sent me gm's but the run around he's been giving me since. 

when i told him i believed the shoes were fake he said he got them from hoh in london lol
 
it has been known for sometime on NT that he sells fakes. call your credit card company, good luck . hate to see good ppl get burned

contact your credit card company and report this man. make a youtube video and continue to spread the word about this scammer.. best of luck fam
 
Just google his real name   the guy up a few post gave it to you.  Google something like "his name" Florida fraud. He went to jail once for scamming on ebay. He sold people a bunch of playstations that didn't exist and kept the money with no explanation to customers. I guess a bunch of people contacted the local authorities and he was arrested and charges with fraud. In the article is even says they seized hundreds of counterfeit sneakers..  selling counterfeits isn't only wrong but it's illegal. No disrespect to the OP but with a simple google search I found all this out. Why on earth would you buy sneakers from this guy... who mind you gets full size runs of limited sneakers from 2011 about twice a month lol. If it was me I would contact the local police dept where he lives and file a complaint, this guy isn't gonna stop when he bringing in thousands of dollars from kids who think their getting real product. Get this scum bag shut down!
 
I said the same thing. How is EVERY shoe a full size run. That made me never trust it and if I recall correctly, he doesn't accept paypal payments which always bothers me about a seller of kicks.
 
so I just went to the site for the hell of it.... most of the pictures are taken from nike.com............ or other random sources. Sucks that you fell for this but yeah no way in hell this **** is anywhere near legit. And the prices aren't even good

A simple search on this forum would had saved you all this trouble. People already know he sells fakes

My point about grey market
 
Try putting a dispute in with cc company at your position with the closet collected I would file a complaint through the better business borough I got screwed real bad by this electronic store online they sent a broken part for 600 bucks and blamed it on me would return emails or calls I put a complaint through bbb they took care of it sent me a new part and 200 bucks back
 
Can't believe this guy is still in business.

I am not a hater whatsoever but this dude is straight banking off selling fake shoes. That's just wrong. He is robbing from people.

Keep us posted, I'd like to know the outcome of this story.
 
A few things needs to be done for this clown to be shut down. He takes advantage of this sneaker craze and preys on the noobs and the ignorant. EliteKicks exposed this clown a long time ago. Im shock people still buy from him.

If I was scammed by this clown and money was stolen from me.


First I would contact his states attorney general office and report his ***. Give his name and business and shady practices to them.

I would complain to the admins of youtube as he is using their product as a way to scam people.

I would make a video of the product I received compared to authentic product I got from NIKE.Com



This guy needs to be shut down ASAP!
