Hello everyone...my name is James. I'm new to this forum but not new to J's. I've been lurking on NT for awhile now and thought I should join since I've gained so much valuable info from here. Time to give back a little, ya know? I was out of the game and heavy into skate kicks for a long time. But now I really hate where skate shoe styling has gone and now my love for Jordan's has come back. My avatar shows the Jordan's I've copped since June of last year when the TB III's came out. God this hobby is a lot more expensive and shoes are much harder to cop than I remember. Hypebeasts and resellerers all over the place and ****.
Anyway...back to why I started this thread in the first place. Hopefully I'm posting this thread in the right forum. I considered the legit/price check forum. But this thread is really for kicks that we already know are fake. Please post any type of scammers here. This includes Ebayers selling fake J's or shipping out beaters advertised as VNDS, or selling early release shoes but advertising them as authorized release date shoes, b grades or variants being passed off as authorized pairs, etc. Also craigslisters doing anything shady. I guess we could also include anyone selling early release shoes being advertised as authorized pairs. So this isn't a legit check thread...just to be clear. It's more of a "This **** is janky...just thought you all should know." thread. Also a place just to talk about scams in general (because even some NTers have been accused of selling early release pairs in the classified section). All this **** in one nice thread...yeah?
I put this guy on blast: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Nike-A...Men_s_Shoes&hash=item35be53c487#ht_594wt_1270
Here are 3 pix from his listing in case his account gets closed before you click on his link:
Yeah...nice "OG" 99's lol. So I messaged this A hole and told him what a piece of **** he is for trying to sell his fake *** 40 dollar J's and trying to pass them off as authentics. Then I hit up Ebay's customer service and filed a trademark/authenticity claim against his posting. I hope any of you message this douchebag and also file complaints against him. Hopefully he loses this posting, and all Ebay selling privileges. Looking through his negative feedbacks, seems like he like so sell water damaged phones...which were probably stolen anyway. My question is; after I file the claim, who do they get to do the legit check? I mean..do they have sneakerheads on deck to confirm suspicions or something lol?
Sorry my first post was so long. I promise they'll be shorter. Good luck to everyone trying to cop those VII's tonight/tomorrow. Peace.
