Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

Selling $600 shoes for 6 grand ain't just a quick buck. That is down right dishonest and wilfully steeling. If he listed that as replica or modded and started bids at $600 and gets more, good luck to him. To just lie about what the shoes are is wrong.

Oh trust me I feel the exact same, I don't care if someone try's to make profit as long as all parties know exactly what they are getting. But when you list something as 100% genuine that you know is not...that's where the issues are.

Apparently my credit card company didn't like me trying to send $600 overseas. They called me up after declining my second order. I would love to pay with Paypal myself...I messaged Rebecca about it but no response yet. I have a feeling they won't accept Paypal though...for obvious reasons.

I know they accept PayPal but you have to send the money as a gift.
 
I've been buying things out of China since 2006. Yeah, the Chinese have never really liked using PayPal.

1. Because of the fees. I don't think they quite get adding 3.5% to cover that works.
2. Sometimes there is too much risk for the seller. How many times have you heard stories of someone buying something, then filing a complaint stating that they never got the item? These guys only have to be burnt once and they won't allow PayPal to be used at all.

Like Western Union, there is no comeback for claim for refund against the seller. It used to be free to send money Via PayPal as Family and Friends. It seems PayPal are now charging a fee of 1% for this to, as I got slugged this recently.

You're 100% sure about that? Are you taking into account the very tips of the shoe that curve upwards & are hard to measure accurately? I've lined them up by eye & it's definitely between 276 - 278mm with an insole of 261 - 262mm.

If this is the case, they appear to be the same size. Realistically, the insole on the US7 should be 25cm which is exactly what it is on the RD, so the problem isn't with yours, it's with our 7. I've contacted David about it.

I put my ruler from the back of the heel not including the heel cup to where the sole ends on the bottom.

They aren't accepting PayPal at all she said. Not as gift, not if you pay extra for the fees...not at all.

Then why did Martha just email me and said they did? As long as you pay 5% extra.

Sent the dude a PM and got this:

"I'm pulling the ad I just found out"

Yeah I wrote him and told him they were fake and it would come back to bite him if he's scamming ppl. His first response was that I'm a scam lol then responded again asking how they're fake etc. I explained it all to him how ppl will figure it out within the next few weeks

Consider that the extent to which Nike will go to attempt to shut these factories down will be contingent on how known these shoes become. Publicizing these shoes to that extent puts it closer to the center of Nike's radar.

Yes and no. NIKE must know from them or at least the V2 from all the times #NikeMAG has been posted on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. I don't think it is that big a deal for them or they would have taken action already by just releasing a cheaper version (no lights) of the real shoe. They would know that these Chinese companies can disappear over night, so what are they going chase anyway?

Out of curiosity, if given the choice to buy these V3s for $600 or a real NIKE MAG with no lights for say $500, what would you buy?

Oh I'm sure they know about the V2s, and I believe that some factories had to shift things around a bit to avoid their scrutiny, but the V3s may still be off their radar since they're so new. Nike may grumble about an 85% accurate V2, but decide to raise higher h$11 over a 95% accurate V3. Best not to rush to see.

I'd take the no-lights $500 real ones from Nike, unless I the V3s were to have absolutely no QC issues and the lights were guaranteed to work for at least 2 years of occasional use. If the lights break, they would have no advantage over no-light Nikes.

EDIT: Or like Brad said, both. :lol

Do u know where to get no light nikes for $500 ?
 
cavx : I would buy the Nike then, add the lights... But not for 500... They can make them for 200 easy.
I've seen the swoosh Hunters today (sold 330 CAD in Ottawa) and These are way much more complicated than the mags and the materials are ore expensive too because it's all leather and rebber/plastics... so a Simplified Mag (I'm just concerned with the shape) would be doable ;)
