things that make my blood boil: when I write things that are obviously idiotic.
Mr. P's right, again. and I'm wrong.
20% refund then is probably realistic.

It is a complete pain. Pure - they were DMC's.
He sent them in a box from the Cities Series. I'm guessing he has the correct box which the DMC laces must be in. He had some of the Paris for sale too so i reckon he switched em by mistake. I've emailed him to ask him to send em, i'm just hoping he hasn't sold the Paris ones and sent my box n laces to someone else.
If there is a problem then i like the sound of the 50% refund you suggest zwer.
Gonna post some flicks of them later just to get a few of your expert opinions on the authenticity. 2nd opinion always helpful.
(edit)
just seen your recommendation of a 20% discount Pure, you must have posted while i was writing my last message. Although i like the sound of zwer's 50% maybe i'd better prepare myself for the realistic 20% you mention. Gutted though. Probably wouldn't have bid if it were listed as just the shoes. Maybe i can blag the seller with the amount i would have been prepared to pay for just the shoes and shoot for a bit lower?

Look inside the shoes and make sure the long numbers are different on the bottom of the label.
Post some pictures as well but that's the biggest give away.

No word from him yet big-m.
Pure - They seem good to me, different serial numbers & no heel tags, just made me raise a bit of a suspicious eyebrow when the wrong box dropped on my doorstep. I'll post pics in the 'Postie dun brung...' thread in a minute.

Some bad soop luck going around...
Dregz that sucks man, if I were you I'd say screw the discount and just get your money back. Likely you are always going to be angry with this pair of soops under these circumstances, I know I would be. Keep us updated

i've seen fakes with wrong box way too often to believe it was a seller mistake, but post pics anyway.
is the box 'strong'? fakes usually fell apart and so..
cheers
