Going to post pictures of my GM Black Grapes.

I am very satisfied. This pair just made up for the "Royal" crap I received early this week.

shouldn't have to be that way just to get a refund... and when getting a refund, who eats the international shipping fees?

Then buy an official pair.

Meanwhile five minutes of detailed HQ photos would avoid the entire process for need of a refund/exchange...

Smh

Then buy an official pair.

Most official pairs have flaws, All mine usually do. Right on the damn toe box too, lol I wish I could see what I'm getting from NDC. That's why I prefer to get my pairs in store so I can look them over.

Yeah but you can at least get a voucher, if not a replacement pair, if you get a messed up pair from NDC.

I stay trying to get vouchers, they always just tell me to send the shoes back SMH

Sorry, were you talking about buying from a website that claims to be selling authentic pairs but they are GM? Or are you talking about buying from an agent?

If it's the former then you should definitely be able to get a refund. The latter should be at your own risk unless they tell you you can send it back for a refund first. Even then it's still sketchy.

i wouldnt say no matter what, you just have to know what to file and what not. if you file and call them fake, you need REAL proof otherwise you SOL.

interesting. how would you file a claim?

 

[naphyde]

interesting. how would you file a claim?

sometimes the seller would appeal/counter your claim. then paypal would make the buyer find a third party to validate the shoes are indeed fake. your money will be tied up for at least a month

so i know a seller who just got his hands on small amount of 09 space jams and wants 300 for em

i feel like they are grey market or something its just really off cause of the quantity and price

sorry if this was answered before but i cant read through 134 pages

Are these grey market shoes real or fake? (as in factories are making em with the real materials without nikes knowledge or are they 100% bootleg)

like if i bought a pair and it came in the regular box and shoes look legit and i sold em as authentic would i be in the wrong?

I read through 134 pages. Most everyone else here did do.

There is a search feature at the top of the thread that is very helpful.

You don't have to go through many pages before you come across a huge debate about it. it's not something one person can tell you. You have to read through the thread, look at the pictures, testimony, stories and evidence and decide for yourself.

If they have zero yellowing, they are GM. End of story.

like are these GM pairs so close to the pairs FNL , EB etc get that if i put a pair on CL people wouldn't say they are fake

Sketchy

not as described

because if you call them fake you need proof from nike.

Let's help each other out by writing down shoes to avoid buying from the grey market.

I'll start with the Black Royals.
