I cant really understand what you are saying/asking - these are shoes you've bought from eBay?
They are fake - who did you buy them from?
Sorry if you've already mentioned this.

Sorry was not understandably expressed if I. I wanted to have only again certainty whether the shoes are also really Fakes.
I?m really pissed!
I bought kicks with ebay. Unfortunately I did not know at that time the crucial differences yet.
They came from France of a 100% seller... "vinsss210380"
Which is it. To change no more.

It's not much cheaper fella.
They were ?75 on day of release.
Start proceedings against him on ebay or paypal.
Demand a total reimbursement including return shipping costs if he advertised them as genuine.
Sorry you got burnt fella but welcome.

i just received an answer from the seller claiming they are authentic as advertised and that i should wait and see till i get them. i'm a bit careful cause i wouldn't wanna piss him off and end up paying and receiving nothing. this way i would at least have fakes at home and then claim a refund. which i actually already claimed.
i read posts about distinguishing fakes from originals but i wonder what makes you think that these aren't genuine. apart from the fact that there are surprisingly a lot still available considering that there are just 5000 made.
i also read feedbacks from buyers from this seller and there's only one buyer claiming he bought fakes and a few hundreds that mainly bought superstars claim that everything is fine.
i mean what are the visible differneces? the label on the box is round, it has this l mark. the colours of the shoe are alright. the only thing that could convince me is that the originals could last longer, although i have my doubts here too. you should see my pair of samba's bought in original store after a few months...i mean it's all made in china,indonesia etc. if there are no visible differences than the only one is that with buying originals we give to capitalists and with buying fakes we give to thieves. sorry i got carried away trying feel better after making a mistake.
i will definately post pictures of shoes when i receive them. thanks for helping.

The stripes and the gaps between them should be about the same.
If the stripes look bigger they are fake.
If the laces seem floppy and don't FILL the plastic packet looking like a block of laces they are fake.
If they were genuine, you wouldn't have got them for ?56.
Simple as that.
