Quick update!! paypal told me to send the item bk for a full refund!! so i rang the twats and explained that the item was deffo counterfeit/fake and that why should i be penalised and lose money posting the item bk costing me postage only for the seller to then sell this fake item to someone else!! (stated all that for them to read b4)
Anyways there changing the case and will be back intouch when they will need proof the item is fake from me!!
Hopefully pointing them here will be good enough to convince them
p.s Not heard from the seller
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

If they read this it should be clear that they are fake.

Good luck Pokey and don't forget to post pics of the burning shoes.

I would be livid if I recieved a fake pair of kicks. Then dude has the nerve to threaten you? Wow.
What I hate about the whole system is that once you enter a dispute all your business is out there and the arsehole knows where you live.
Most times such things are idle threats and nothing comes of them, but it'd be wise to keep an eye out.
I would be amazed if paypal sort you out. I've had run-ins with them before and they are an absolute shambles of a company. The faceless bastards owe my GF £500 from over 1 1/2 years ago!
Good luck with it all anyway.

Paypal seem to suck for a lot of people (a friend of mine who lived off his art got thousands of pounds suspended by them whilst they "investigated" his account so he had to live off practically nothing for 6 months) but my personal experiences are ok with them. Whenever I've had fakes I always got my money back around 28 days after I file the complaint

When i got those fake berlins, i never had to send them back, I told them that im not gonna send them back so the seller can sell them to someone who wont be able to identify counterfeit superstars, and i got all my money back, stick to your guns dude!
