Picked up these Masters on ebay and wondering if they are authentic or fakes. I am suspicious of the sloppy carbon fiber pattern. The carbon fiber looks legit when the light catches it and there is a textured clear coat on top of it so unable to scratch it but I wanted to see what you all think. 
 
Thanks Endastory, any particular reason you think they are fakes?


Guy inclided a Footlocker receipt and many things seem on point but the carbon fiber and perpahs the height of the the tag on the back.


Any other opinions about these being fake/legit?
 
Thanks again for your response, I guess now I will contact ebay to see about a dispute or return, purchased these from a guy on ebay who had a good rating selling lots of other types of Jordans, 100 positive feedback with over 10,000 sales, thought I could trust this purchase and have learned that I cannot trust anything off ebay, even the new space jam 11s I got from nike/SNKRS are suspect of being fakes so who can you trust anymore these days. 

Any one else have any opinions on this shoe? 

Can anyone offer any advice on how to successfully purchase authentic Jordans so I can stop feeling like a anxietal shoe fetish maniac?

Buy off GOAT (airgoat.com)

Anyone on this site can vouch for them. Bought my Bred 1s and Yeezys off them.

I can't vouch for that site as I've never used them but flightclub is always legit and have a good selection but it's more for collectors imo unless youre comfortable rocking $400 shoes cuz it gets pricy real quick over there

Flightclub has been good to me so far, but does make it difficult to rock a pair of $300-400 shoes and not worry about every spec of dirt/scuf or whether or not the place I'm going will have carpet. But the goal is not only to collect but also to wear the shoes proudly because I have great respect for the look and the player who rocked em! 
 
Yeah it's tough man, I missed out on those masters myself but it being a mostly all black shoe you could easily justify the resell price cuz they will be easy to keep clean and it's a dope shoe
 
Do you or anyone know if Flightclub in LA will check these masters for legit check like if I were going to sell then through them but really just wanted an opinion? The ebay seller agreed to a return so might have to do that
 
I wished I owned a pair so I could give you an answer.

I reviewed them carefully against the Nike photos.

Sorry but I have no opinion
 
Thanks! I actually am headed to LA tomorrow and will see if I cannot get into that RIF LA for a legit test. This is my first pair of 12s so I have nothing to compare it to! 
 
These are legit. Box tag and manufacturing date are on point. Carbon looka good. Of course aome imperfections are bound to happen but they are few.
