Today i gave Bernard a ring regarding my refund, i was pretty angry with the guy i'm it just really pisses me off when he strarts going on about,having to send the trainers of to be tested and he's sure there not fakes etc etc.
I stated to him that:
1. he does seem to be the only person selling these very rare trainers and that his supply seemed to be endless.
2. As far as i know the trainers were only manufactured in 2002 (But i need confirmation on that)
3. The pairs he sold me had 6 eyelets, instead of 7.
4. The overall trainer was no wear near the standards Adidas set.
5. The actual Clear plastic on his was frosted not clear.
6. the fonts were completely different. (Most noticeable on the shell)
7. They fell apart within a week.
8. The shell didn't actualy fit the trainer properly.
9. The sole on the version he had is completley different to the original etc etc.
AND BY THE WAY THE NEW LAYOUT OF THE SITE IS COOL, WELL DONE AND THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR ALL THE ADVISE one more thing i've noticed the images of the Missy's and New Yorks on the headers, i've just got them two pairs is someone copying my rather small collection or do i just have great taste? HA HA
9. The sole on the version he had is completley different to the original.
I do have to give him a bit of credit though he did stay calm under all the abuse i was giving him and i did have the trainers for ages before i informed him that they were fake.
He will be getting back to me on Saturday regarding my refund.
I'll keep you guys informed ( I had the trainers for about 6-7 months before i told him they were fakes, i've only just got into collecting if that's the right word and if i get my money back i would advise anyone in a similar posistion that isn't happy to do the same)
