K well I got them...............but I kinda wish I didnt
I picked up 2 packages:
I was pretty excited till I seen the box I got for the Black Cements........it was a regular JB box SMDH. I wont get into that too much, PM me if you really wanna know
And on to the Ray's SMH
Notice anything???
If it makes you feel any better, i am still jelly.
Thats the first thing I notice, crooked holo
As bad as the quality is, are they consider B Grades or fake?
What I hear a lot lately is that many people are pushing FAKE kicks as B GRADES....
WOW!! I said this back in 2000 on niketalk, that the variant companies over seas would start pushing Variants as B Grades... LMAO.. this $*! actually happened? WWWWOOOWWWWWWWW

i would say thats a b grade
but to me they dont look that bad
i know what i'm buying when dealing with the HK websites as when i walk into a footlocker or order from nike.com
i'm getting cheap materials at a premium price from both ave's
if i got the 13's as a b grade it would not bother me myself that much
all the more reason to rock em not stock em
its better then camping out for them
you could get the same shoe in the same condition from hoh or nike.com
the YOTR 7's where full of b grades
glad i sold the b grade YOTR 7 i got and that pair came from finishline and i sold it to another reseller

Nice pickup, it's too bad youll never know if those are indeed fakes or Bgrades or legit but stolen authentic Rays straight out the same factory that makes them. In regards to the crooked hologram, I have a pair of authentic Playoff XIIIs with the same problem on one shoe and have seen this in a couple of other pairs on ebay and footlocker when they released. The only problem I have is the hologram should have had the protective wrap or sticker over it?- unless you took them off?
Peace.

Yeah Dro, I noticed the crooked hologram right off, and I am not nearly as "picky" as others are. I personally would not even feel good about just selling them to someone else, because I am pretty certain those are either very poor "B" grades, or fakes. Anyone on Ebay or elsewhere would be very disappointed with those, and swear you sold them some fakes. I think I would return both of those, the box on the 3's is what in my opinion kind of makes them special, and for them to send them in an unmarked JB box with a premium price tag, I would definitely be requesting a swift refund or filing a complaint with paypal. I assume by your statements they did not notify you prior to accepting your order of those imperfections and they should have notified you of those defects on the Ray's and told you the 3's were coming in an unmarked box before processing your order, just my two cents...

Those aren't fakes, just the worst ones border-lining A grades and B grades.
Trust me, there's no way fakes can made it to North America that fast.

The upper on the left looks a bit creased too. Not a big deal if you plan to wear. How much did you drop Dro?

Just got my 2 pairs from VMVinc and they're not much better than Dro's. What a huge disappointment, hologram has no protective sticker, good amount of glue stains, holograms are foggy not clear and pods are off, in addition that green holographic circled jumpman on the bottom of the sole has paper remnants surrounding it like it was cut by scissors. My opinion, no way were these from Niketown HK and are indeed fake not even b grade quality. Disgusted.......I'm pretty sure others will see similar problems when they get their pairs this week. Never again from these Asian sites.

that right foot really is uneven huh? wow. the hologram is no biggie in my eyes. i mean my jeans would cover it anyways. i understand if you're displeased though, that that amount you paid, everything should be copasetic.
and shuttles!! i'm surprised you went thru with it bro. I know you said the messed up box erked you, just couldn't get over that huh? I feel you tho. I'm waiting for 160 to get his pair before i decide on vmv. i definitely dont want b-grades for 500 bones tho smh
Damn MR nike...they're that bad fam? ughh

These are the exact same problems my pair of playoffs from vmv have. Identical to the things that I initially noticed.

All this feedback makes me very skeptical in ordering from these sites. Keep it at home FTW.

mr nike authentic- did your pair have the nike quality sticker on the bottom of the box and was there a stamped code in the inside cover of the box ?

No disrespect but those ray 13s above are obvious fakes..seems like if you didn't buy from a retail location in the states you most likely got fakes from across the pond.
