Fake Watermelon CLRs -
mistyman - 10-10-06
Postman came today to delivered my new Watermelon CLRs. Except the scumbag seller has ripped me off, they are clearly fakes. I don't know that much about Superstars but its not good when they come in a box that a 2 year old could have knocked up, no tags, laces that look like they come from a pound shop and a shell that's chopped of before it even gets under the laces. There is dodgy stiching and they just dont feel right. I would love you guys to tell me i'm wrong but i got a nasty feeling that aint coming. Have a look at these and tell me what you think.
By the way the seller is called Hewsonator and Yes i will be trying to get my money back.

Not happy about this.
I said on here that he was an allright seller as his photos were right and he was selling them for the right price.
What you got is definitely fake.
You want all your money back including the cost of return postage or it's a big fat negative and a report to ebay cos he's selling multiple fakes.
Make it clear to him that Ebay WILL close his account as he is selling fakes.
We can get you the address of someone in England who verifies and confirms the authenticity of Adidas shoes.

they almost match effels FP's 4 shiteness
& to think someone said they thought CLR's hadn't been faked... just goes to show that if it's sellable, someone will fake it!
...I wonder how long it'll be until some shady fucker manages to fake a pair of Number 35 top secrets in the box

I'm working on the boxes right now but they keep coming out looking like Homer's spice rack and bird house he made on The Simpsons!
Yeah it doesn't look like it will end with the 35th's because they fake the adicolors and everything else that comes out too.
Anyone seen a faked basic white with black or navy stripes? It wouldn't surprise me!

I think I was trying to get a pair of this seller in my size a while back, glad I didn't now.
You should be able to get your money back no problem as they are clearly fake.

The Top Secrets have been faked, pictures soon.
I hadn't seen any fake CLR's on the bay so it was probably me that said that.
I still haven't cos this shit head has real pictures.

I can't remember who it was that said it but at least we have picture proof that they have been faked (send 'em back & get right on his case mistyman!)
I want to see those fake top secret pics to see how good the fakers are...

Thanks for all the help guys, I have contacted the seller and will wait to see what he says. I know they aint a pair of neighbourhood but money is money and more importantly adidas SHOULD BE adidas.

I've seen fake all blacks, but it was a guy who'd been ripped off and stated they was fakes.

Success! Full refund and an apology. He says he didn't know they were fakes and hasn't had complaints before (not technically true, i found an old feedback for the same shoes claiming they were fakes). To give him his dues though these are the only trainers he sells, everything else is proper running spikes which do look ok. Thanks again for all the help. Now all i have to do is find some real ones.

You'd be surprised how many sellers don't even know they have fakes and they're usually the most sympathetic when they find out because they got ripped aswell when they thought they were getting a bargain. I haven't had one person get mad on e-bay when I ask for pics and then tell them I don't want them because they are fakes (which surprises me). It's usually the dodgy guy's who tell you that you don't know what you're talking about and get mad.

Hi, Was this guy reported to ebay? He is still selling those fakes!!!
Some poor guy is going to purchase these not knowing they are dodgy.

He must know.
The shoes he's selling bear no resemblance to the ones in his pictures.
