Never heard of those sites, looks pretty suspect to be honest
I will say I ordered something from Blitz last week. Took 5 days to ship. Totally trustworthy site and dude, so not knocking it at all, just letting people know in case they are considering an order soon.
EDIT: edited after peeping the sites to note their "suspect nature"

Both of those first two sites are 1000% fake. Best way to tell, for me, is to check out the Jordans. $115 for some Doernbecher 3s??? At least make it semi-believable, guys! lol. Still, I appreciate the Project Blitz link. I really like that shoe, but I need to chill on the cops, especially with the HFs coming up and the He Got Game restock imminent. Damn you, shoe god, damn you!

Congrats on getting married. No they wont be available on ndc. Suggested Retail is $98, however most shops will probably be charging more. You would have to hit up the shops in your area to see what they will be charging for these.

Thanks guys! Also, picked up a pair of vnds P-Rod Futura for $71 shipped. Been wanting a pair since they released, but couldn't afford it back then since most spots were charging $200.
PS. I forgot to post the pic earlier.

I don't mean this disrespectfully - I know you are new and we all have to start somewhere - but if you couldn't tell within seconds that both of those sites were fake, you are probably not ready yet to be buying shoes from any place but your local retailers, major chains, and well-established "known" sites. I'm not trying to diss you here, but rather protect you from squandering funds on fakes. One of those sites was offering an FSR of "2001 Jordan XI retro 'breds'" for $85 a pair. FSRs of OG Maroon VIs, city series Xs... Sometimes it can be hard to spot fakes, but those sites weren't even trying.
It's sad how rampant bootlegging is (though it's 100% rational and expected), and therefore how much homework is required before one can be a responsible and knowledgeable buyer, but that's the world we are living in. Don't jump in head first right away - spend the time you need to do your research before taking the plunge. This hobby can be expensive enough without getting scammed.
Since you are new, here are a few other pieces of advice.
1. Don't be afraid to pass; if you think something is shady, it probably is. ...I've been doing this for a long time - I started working odd jobs wherever I could for sneaker money in 1990 - and there are times when I'm still uncomfortable deciding a shoe is legit. There's no shame in not knowing. Ask questions. Be proactive. And, trust your gut.
2. Make fewer, better purchases. A lot of new people in this hobby get caught up in wanting to have a lot of sneakers. Don't buy something just because it's cheap and it's another pair for your collection. Once you start really stockpiling shoes, you really regret those purchases because you can't really get anything for them and you'd rather have the room than that mistake pair you bought 8 years ago because you didn't know better. Are there old pairs that you want - but they are too expensive? Save up and get them. All the time, I see people talking about, I can't spend $500 on a pair of shoes... but then those same people go out and spend $100 5 times on 5 different pairs on impulse... they'd get more satisfaction out of having that 1 amazing pair!
Best of luck getting started!

If not NDC, has FNL or eastbay said they were getting the dunk Concords? Too limited for them?

Well yea, this will be my first purchase. Is that allowed? Or do you have to be a dunk purist to get these? Sorry if I'm not elite enough

Might as well change the title to Official Jordan 11 Retro "Concord Thread" for the rest of the month
If you can't get a pair of Concords, hit up the "Get Money Boyz"
