Fuck me.
You're absolutely right.
The stitching at the back is wrong and the pattern on the upper is more akin to snakeskin than caviar.
Start a claim asap and use 'em for decorating.

They look terrible quality - surprised it's been so long a gap between release and fakes though...

Dispute filed, ebay are doing a new thing where you have to phone up to file the dispute. If you try and do it the old way it keeps looping you back to a screen with their phone number. They asked my how I knew they are fake, I explained and they agreed to refund the item then and there, refund will come through in up to three days, and "ebay requests" that i destroy the counterfeight goods because "ebay does not encourage people to sell counterfeit items..."
Sorted

Sometimes adidas shorten the name of the sneaker on the label, I have a few with the last letter missed off. Cav lables do say " CAVIA"

Seems that new system might be a real decent way of doing things - certainly better than waiting on a 21 day paypal dispute.
