That's what I got, 99p at home bargains. Great stuff.

On another note, are people really paying £400 for these?!? Look at the toes!?!?

No, Only people that are very inexperienced in the shoe game. You can buy those shoes for 100-250 dollars on aliexpress and you will see the exact same ones on ebay for 400 to 1000 dollars. I saw one that literally had no changes that was selling for over one grand and had 69 bids. Some people also put clear soles in instead of the ugly yellow soles and sell them on ebay for $400 to $600 dollars but at least they changed something! Anyways, A lot of people are paying a lot because they don't know anything about air mags or think that these are more authentic than the ones on aliexpress because aliexpress is an unknown website (to them) and they think it may steal there info. But, yea, people are really dumb. I didn't know about the air mags until about a month ago and I still know more than some dip****s that have been scouting ebay for those shoes for year(s).
 
I know, so tempted to get two and flog one on eBay for profit and keep the other for myself if people are going to be so stupid with their money but I'm not that Kind of person.

This looks like a "sock toe" mod and is actually pretty good. Very comfortable and if you look at the real movie shoe, you will see the same effect.

That is only because you are used to seeing a "boot toe". They look completely different on the feet or is propped up.

No I'm used to seeing more of the "toe slim" in all fairness.

That's what I mean though, to put a photolike that, looking so horrible. Without a doubt trying to make it look like the real deal like that

It will just take longer to dry and the professional holds stronger plastic but you won't see a THAT big difference.
 
Just photoshoped RDs logos to don't get busted by ebay for using brands.
The buyers will be very disapointed in few days hahaha !

It isn't the gogoyeezy pair for sure tho (the heelcup splattering isn't the same)

The 2011 MAGs have a rounded slim toe. Their Family and Friends counter parts have a proper sock toe. Both are from NIKE but the F&F are samples only. They do look closer to the screen used shoes and why a few of use have used that method of toe slim.

I get your point though. If you selling them, you need to make them look good.
 
I dont think they are modded.. mine have that a little bit..since the foam has been pushing on them, and ive had them in the box for months..

I think you are right as you can not see any evidence the upper was removed or even the toe lifted. They do look pretty symmetrical though.

Yep and you will see plenty more like this in the coming weeks.

But surely the buyer when they receive them will realise they aren't the real deal, complain to eBay that they are fakes and get a refund anyway? As its against eBay policy re fakes etc

Edit: looks like that bid was retracted now

Maybe, maybe not. See the fact is they used a photo of the real shoes and not RD MAG images, so now it is up to the buyer to make the decision and hopefully they do their research. The only thing really wrong with the listing is the price. Even though they used the words like "NIKE", the shoes have this on them, so it becomes a bit of a nasty grey area.

About 2 years ago, this guy buys what he thinks are real NIKE shoes for $3500 and of course V2s turn up. So he puts in a dispute showing the photos of the listed item and what he got sent to him and eBay not only refunded him, they let him keep the V2s as well. Serves the seller right for trying to rip someone off.

Lets just hope the auction times out and no one gets ripped off.
