Yeah, that's the problem with trying to work out a "deal". Someone else is gonna come through and recognize that the asking or BIN price is pretty fair, and they don't care about trying to get the seller to knock a $20 bill off of them. Hell, even $40 of a gap is minimal to someone who has to have that particular shoe.

Couldnt have said it better myself Billy. I think we have all been there. I was in the middle of buying laker tickets from someone and PAID and someone else 2 minutes later clicked the buy it now button. There is nothing you can really do. For the seller its either sell it to you and chance negative feedback or refund you and nothing happens. i would do the same thing honestly.

Wow, great find And123w

Yah wtf? Why are they so cheap?!? And are they even officially released yet? And can someone please tell me wuts the deal with onenof.the color options being orange instead of being red?

Come to think of it, those Corduroy Checkered Supreme Vans are suspect...

^ That's the first thing I was thinking, hence the size run and price.....

Cris.

I saw that listing yesterday, and it was at $100 shipped! I guess some price "adjusting" was done, haha. Who knows though, if they're fake or not. It's not like Vans puts in any real technology to their shoes, to where it's going to be hard to make an exact replica.

The weird thing with those is that they're probably the best looking fakes I've ever seen, if they are fakes. My "fake!" radar hasn't gone off from any of the pics of those ebay sales. The sellers have pretty decent feedback, too (one has 100%), which is also weird. It is super tempting to try to score a pair for below assumed retail... haha

Im talking to that uraya guy as we speak. He says a store his friend works at got their shipment in ealry and he bought them up with the intent to resell. Trying to see where he gottem from.

What store got them in, other than Supreme?! Lies!

The more i talk to this dude the more im POSITIVE these are fake! He wont show me his reciept untill i buy because he "doesnt want me to complain about him raising the price he paid for them". He also claims that he bought them from a vans retail store in temecula, CA.....so wich retail location has supreme accounts again....?

Looking closer atthe pixi noticed that the quality is crappy even if they are real...im not done investigating this fool tho...ill post my convo w/ suraya2222 when i finish talkn to him if u guys wanna read it..

I KNOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! EXPOSE THIS MAAAAAAN!!!!

OOOOOOOHHHHHH!!!! im tellin supreme.....lol

He REALLY claims to have bought out the entire vans location in temecula, and then tells me to check other vans locations to see if they got theirs!!!!!!!!!

Riiight. He doesn't know he's dealing with some Supreme experts over here! The only place outside of Supreme that has ever been known to get Supreme Vans, is the Rack. That's it...and that's because they buy pallets of shoes from Vans. They don't even know what they're buying most likely, and Vans doesn't even know what they're selling!

I gave him my email to send me a pic of the reciept and he spammed me...lol wtf!?!?!

Yup, garbage ass seller.
