Doesn't matter if it's too early or not. You'd be surprised to see what "colorways" they have here in Greenhills and Divisoria, the two largest and most well known flea markets that sell fakes.

I absolutely hope so. These better not be really limited. Didn't it take some time for the kobe 9 China to come to the US? Can't remember on that one but I'm pretty sure it was afterwards.

Problem is that the 'hype train' has already left the station regarding GCRs. Might not be FTB limited/have FTB resale, but I doubt anyone will be able to queue on SNKRS or stroll into FL and get them. Might be FTB 11 Jr. Hope I'm wrong.

I'll be sure to post pics. I contacted someone in Manila who was the event and he knows the store/seller that I bought from and it's legit. Prices going up up up, I'm glad I got my pair on the way.

If you got them off EBAY, I wouldn't give it a second thought. In my experience, if you sneeze and it sounds like you said 'fake', they tend to always side with the buyer. The burden is almost always on the seller. Besides. People underestimate the value of EBAY feedback. If someone has feedback from over a 100 people, and their positive feedback is in the high 90s or 100%, that can potentially be worth thousands (or tens of thousands) of dollars a year to someone who sells on EBAY. They're not going to throw that good rating/feedback away over a fake pair of Kobes they copped from a market in Manilla or whatnot for a $100 profit that could cost them Ks annually (unless they're a stone cold moron, which is unlikely if they amassed feedback from over a 100 people and have a great positive %).
Most people on EBAY who have 100+ feedback are either really into what they're peddling (sneakerhead), and are sincere about what they're doing, or are selling as a form of income. Either way, they probably take it serious and reputation/trust are important to them.

Don't get the KB X AS's bc the 3M on the inside of the shoe peels after just a few hours.

Yup. I have the FTBs, but if I didn't, I wouldn't hesitate to grab these for $300 or less if possible (before fakes flood the market). I've been lucky to grab a lot Kobes on discount (especially 11s); this is where I consider putting that saved $ to use.
Even though I have the FTBs, I'm getting really tempted.

I couldn't get my hands on the FTB, so I didn't/don't want to risk missing out on these, especially with people saying they aren't going to drop in the U.S.

Mamba Mentality. Strike first, strike fast (before fakes are all over the place and prices go up)

The GCRs are nice, but I wouldn't pay resell prices for them. Thats just me though.

Do you go to FLs site, populate your size, then select 'find in store' after you input your zip? Maybe switch to other nearby zips? I did that when I doubled-up on Tinkers, and got the last pair in my size (it was only in one of 12 stores reasonably near me, and the info online turned out to be correct).

Yeah I've tried that. I've looked in the next state near me too while I was on vacation. It shows up at one store near me, but I called them and they said they were all out of 10 1/2. Thanks for the suggestion though

Still feeling them in spite of Kobe being the $8 3 pack crew sock joints.

I can give you the Sku number off my receipt. Take that Footlocker Sku number and ask an associate in store to assist ordering it online in the store and have it sent to your house. A Footlocker associate can order in store and have it sent to your house as long as it's in stock somewhere in another Footlocker even though you may not be able to order the same way through the Footlocker website.
Here you are : 4100871404090
Edit : Just searched and at least 2 of my local stores have them in stock in 10.5 the website says. Possibly more if I kept searching. If you really need an Oop just PM me.
