Stockx are literally NOT buying the shoes and selling them to you. They are taking the money because they are holding some of the money in escrow to pay the seller, some is their cut, and some is for shipping. The terms and conditions that you seem to want to dismiss, ARE LITERALLY THE LEGALLY...

The Terms and Conditions make it clear that is not the case. They are the intermediary, matching a buyer with a seller and taking a cut for the service. No different to eBay over the years in that respect. What was revolutionary about StockX was that they did Authenticity Verification at the...

They were quick on the response.... But trying to twist it - sure 37 pairs is low, out of the millions sold... but how many pairs Nike actually checked is important. If they checked 100 pairs and you got a 37% error rate, then its Game Over... Stockx will argue only a few pairs that people...

They weren't checking every single transaction. Nike had a couple prominent collectors reach out to them, then tried themselves to catch them out. For all we know they only checked 50 pairs...

I started to get worried about that too, even the potential for yellowing - I sold some Space Jam XIs 2009 for that reason 2yr ago, I figured there's no way they can last much longer.

I think part of the demographics difference is that when Stockx was getting some bad press for their authenticity checks a few years ago, the experienced guys focused over onto GOAT. I know I did - I'd really wound down my buying and selling as I'm an older guy with a real business/company to...

Hi folks, Wasn't really sure which forum to post this on, or where to go for help really but thought the sneaker community may be best. I live in Scotland. Been buying and selling along the 1 to rock & 1 to stock since the early 00s. StockX then GOAT has been great in letting me get access...

@Madaboutshoe32 @7792 Hope this helps, if you could have a look at the outsole? Guess if these are legit and it is just the quality these days, these really have dropped off - I bought my last Mids maybe 2016 but I used to see quite a few, and they were never as bad as this.

Do you mean under the insole? I don't see any stars on the sole itself.

I have these, and mine were bought direct in store. Yours look identical - right down to the insoles etc as far as I can see.

Hi all, I just bought a pair of Jordan 1 Mid, ref DZ5329-001 from Stockx. Arrived today. However I have some concerns: 1) The tan section of material seems off, doesn't seem to me to have a genuine leather finish (though maybe this model doesn't?), has a hint of the synthetic about it. 2)...

Ok, have edited to remove reference to it. Ironically your signature breaks 2 of the selling rules on the forum!

Well I'm not - the Classified rules themselves suggest if you don't know the going price or popularity of a shoe, to use the other threads to discuss. I can't sell them here just now even if I wanted to, there's no mechanism for me to do so, but also I don't know if they're worth selling...

Thoughts on the Quai 54 'Friends & Family' colorway? Not sure if they have been sought-after or just hyped without actually being well liked.

What do you consider a fair price? I can get 'em - I'm not a reseller as I don't like that it stops genuine customers getting shoes, but here in Europe a lot of releases are easier to get, and the going rate is above RRP.
