So here's mine. Overall, I'm very pleased. Are they perfect? No, but I don't expect them to be either. Yeah, they have some of the same issues others are reporting: the box wasn't mint, the paper band wasn't done right, the ELs are dimmer, and there's a crease on one side by the swoosh. But for what they are, I think they're fantastic. I certainly couldn't do better myself.
Remember folks, these are knock-offs. Set your expectations to the appropriate level.

I have an idea with what's been happening in regards to the extra charges. The site lists the shoes as normally $629, but they are $599 for a 30 day special. Well, it has definitely been more than 30 days since I found out about the shoes. Maybe they forgot to update the website? Probably not, but who knows? Actually, now that I think about it, the first reports of additional charges started about 30 days after the shoes went up....

We probably all do, to some extent
Meh, I'm not bothered by the paper band. It's not why I bought these anyhow.
One of your shots reminded me of a picture I have in my references folder of a pair of side 8 RDs. The angle's not perfect (you've got more lens distortion from shooting closer) but it's DAMN close. If a picture like this doesn't make people want to buy, I don't know what will.
...also I know these are size 8s because at one point, as I would get pictures from auctions, I would file them under their size to suss out differences in the sizes. MAN! I've wasted a lot of energy thinking about these shoes. haha (And I will likely waste even more time even after I get my V3's)

I would rather have a better built replica than the poster or license plate. Hopefully they improve their quality control if the V3PL comes out. Probably not lol
you should send them back! I mean for $600 they should send you everything. Lol

Mine still haven't arrived, I paid on the 22nd with Western Union, the total was $548.96 with the discount from the code supplied earlier on this thread and the discount for using western union. Admittedly after currency conversion and the western union fee (which was only $18) the Australian dollar total was $760.08
maybe western unioners get slower shipping?
Fingers crossed they'll get delivered to work before the end of the week so the other staff can be jealous

Na there is something weird going on with Customs China. I've have a package (not these shoes) in their custody for 6 days now and tracking says "Held by customs" (city name), China. So really don't know what is going on here. They have NEVER held a package like this before and I have been buying these items since 2009.

So yesterday my shoes were supposed to arrive (cleared customs fast, arrived a day earlier than quoted) but they were never delivered. Again, probably because they arrived ahead of schedule and hit the facility after the carrier already left for his or her route. I know I should get them today then. Cant wait to check them out in person
