Supply and demand.... I remember when they first appeared, didn't someone put a bid in up to £10,000 before the auction was withdrawn? Either a case of shill bidding or just a time of having money of burn!
I think it worked out a fair price, considering how I received them.

So, go on, what did he tell you he paid ?
How you received them ?
What you mean ? Dented ?

Ah, he didn't tell me the exact price, as I said, he just mentioned about 3 times what I paid, so I figured about £2500. Let just say that he didn't put any protective packaging on the inside, and leave it at that. I don't want to dish the guy too much. I guess making the mistake of putting the shipping information on the bottom of the box didn't help.

Eh ?
You mean cos then it got chucked about in the post ?
To be honest, I'm not too surprised about not taking precautions with the inside as in my opinion, he really didn't give a shit about trainers and was only ever into it to try and make a buck.
He's an alright bloke but I'm glad he failed.

Mine backplate was dented the exact same way (in transit).As you said the shoe horns,tree's woteva bang into the top of the case and dent the fooker.
I was gonna look into trying to get a replacement backplate at one stage but never got round to it!!am sure there's some about its just tracking 1 down.
TIP.If any1 ever buys a pair make sure they take the shoehorns out of the case b4 posting or they'll turn up just the same with a dented backplate

Not to mention the added fun of popping the stuff at the end.

Bloody hell.
What a donut.
They'd have been all over the shop before they even left his house, never mind the journey through Parcelfarce.
