Why? Because I just want to know why he feels it's right to basically mislead thousands of sneaker unsuspecting enthusiasts into buying shoes that are fake. That's why, I feel like someone has to let some of these less knowledgeable (not their fault either) sneaker enthusiasts that the websites he's promoting are not legitimate.
Secondly, I don't want these shoes to get out on the market (eBay, consignment stores like FCNY, Rif, Uptempoair and forum marketplaces) because I don't ever want to accidentally buy a high quality fake that some unsuspecting seller is selling me.
Finally and relating to my second point, judging by your grammar and your overall ineptitude to comprehend the moral issue at hand I'd say you're the child here. I'm a grown @@! man who doesn't need to be dealing with this nonsense. When I don't have the time to go to every release and I want to hit up eBay, flight club or ISS and overpay for my shoes I want to breathe easy that they're real and I didn't just spend double on some shoes that might be fake because I couldn't make it to the release. I don't buy from any of these early release websites (I've bought from VMV and Promoshoes in the past however, got rid of all those shoes), but I still fear that fakes can make it into the hands of legit resellers.
I've tried to explain things nicely, but you just don't get it.

Most recently, the infamous "Air Randy" miraculously ended up with multiple sizes of Concords with MJ's #45 on the back. Thinking realistically, it's more than likely that these "samples" were manufactured on the side and weren't ever authorized Nike products.

He got hated on, because his videos weren't informative, but yet he was getting kicks everyone wanted. I think some people look at it as bragging or boasting. Which I can see.
Some want him to be as in to kicks as they are, and know what date the OG kicks came out, the materials... Being a little older I know some people buy cars, because of the way they look and others buy them for horsepower, know how many cubic inches are in the interior, the exact name of the color. Do you bash a guy, because he bought a BMW, because it's a BMW? At the end of the day it's his money or he built himself up in to to the position he's in where he gets them free or at discount. And him being a former ex-con I salute dude, especially when he doesn't hide the fact. He could be out here doing wrong. Dude buys kicks off nostalgia. Being older you also are less concerned about little stuff, because you have real life responsibilities(kids, mortgages, wives). What's more important knowing what time to pick your son up from soccer practice or the date Jordan did what in those sneakers?
It's whatever, don't blame SneekGeeks for the mistakes you made purchasing. You should have known buying kicks five months in advance there was a risk. Those are the risk in the sneaker culture. That's why a site like NT is around to help you make wiser decisions.
-Its to the point Air Randy has the shoe for sale before Nike/JB starts to actually promote them.
they have no one to blame but themselves...that 3rd world labor practice biting em in da ++@
