Fake LOAs/COAs are rampant - and not just in sneaker collecting. If it takes this post to inform somebody that's the documents are forged all the time, then that somebody is just not really ready to be dealing in type of commerce he/she is about to engage. OP may have given you a fish to eat today, but if fake LOAs are a surprised to you, you better start teaching yourself how to fish, because that somebody getting scammed is inevitable and this post has simply postponed it.

"Fake LOAs/COAs are rampant" -"BIP ROBERTS"
Agreed!  Which makes this topic of conversation all the more relevant.  We expect BIG NAME collectors such as "MRMAR23" to be experts in their field of hobby.  If "MRMAR23" is guilty of trying to pass off a fake LOA, it creates that much more distrust among ALL collectors.  "MRMAR23" has established a name for himself.  A fake LOA will tarnish that image.

Why wait until after to ask you to make sure his purchase was legit? This has nothing to do with trying to help NT out. 99.9% of us will never be buying $7k shoes, and those of us that do should be doing their own background check. Let the buyer and seller resolve this on their own. Your a newb in this PE game. I. Have already told you in a pm that these types of deals and prices should be discussed in private and here you go putting a knowledgeable pe collector on blast. Know your role newb.

Who the hell says "newb" anymore?

And to the people coming at OP, he is trying to help someone....I mean, thats pretty pathetic if you wouldn't help someone you knew get $7k back.
