These are even worse than the ones I got landed with. Sad thing is they are already up to £20 on eBay, wankers.

Perhaps they used to be promodels but they had an accident!
As for those IBs, shit!!! One picture speaks volumes. Bet he thought if he just took a picture of the back no one would notice. Shame he did that, and put them on top of the obviously fake box as well. Can't believe people still try to get away with this after all this time. FAIL!

Whether these are fakes or not, i'm not sure, but look at the fucking price he wants for them!!! >Pricing Fail< On the same page, another seller had a pair of Dasslers for £159, so something tells me the Buenos Aires guy hasn't got a fucking clue!

Why not have a 'price recommendation' thread? With like the shoes- then the recommmended prices, new/used.
Surely this would help people not get caught out with ebay sellers?

I think most people here are pretty wise. If they see a pair of NBHDs or Tates going for £50, it's pretty obvious they're fake 99.98% of the time.
Anything else, you just use your judgement. If they are legit, it's what you're willing to pay for them that counts.

Such a damn good idea. We really need to orchestrate that. But how to do it? Make payment then demand refund upon receipt of the shoes? Or what?

I second this motion. I would be super helpful and a pretty good way to provide further info for beginner collectors (like myself). There's a 'blue book' value for cars, so would this be a 'blue book' too?

Actually, more like an 'A.039 book'!

A price guide thread? The only problem with that idea is it's shit. Think about it.

RE: the worst fakes thread - einzigartig adidas - 29-07-10

EDIT: Oops, read your post too fast. I feel like a dummy... because it would make it hard to earn any bucks off our gear, or what? Or do you mean then it would only help the fake eBay'ers make even more money on their lame ass imitations?

They're worth as much as you're willing to pay for them
