Just bought a pair of superstars on ebay.

arrived in an unoriginal box - wrong size and no packaging - shoe box tied together with sellotape - with an address taped on - paid ?6 recorded delivery sent second class - box in bits - when it eventually arrived - trainers - laces in bits - sole coming away on right and left, chuck 2cm x 1cm approx missing from sole on left sole.

Seller dont give a sh*t - and said thats the risk that i take on ebay!

Total dickhead or what ?

Sounds a bit rough that fella.
I got a pair yesterday that was 2 bottoms of a box all sellotaped and addressed exactly the same as you said.
Not too impressed really, they should've been wrapped in paper at the very least.
You should probably complain.
Post a link to the auction.
