True, but only for people who actually know what to look for. At least for now, most of the general public doesn't even know what the "grey market" is.Man, now that they are selling these high quality "authentics" in half sizes with the real boxes, packaging, etc. It's a wrap for Ebay sales without a receipt.

yep I've been wanting to trade for white/black 13s which I missed out on but it's hard to do it without a receipt. and then I think I could still get scammed if they give me a different pair than the one they showed me a receipt for. pretty much retail or bust for me which it always has been anyways, it just sucks that now it's easier to miss a RD pair I used to have no problems copping whatever I wanted but those white/black 13 were the first shoe I've missed and came close to missing on a few others
if you're like one of those collectors that keeps there shoes in a glass box like a museum piece or a piece of art then I can understand why the need for a receipt is needed but if you're buying the shoes because you're going to wear them and you like how they look then by all means get some grey ,arrests if you can't find retail pairs in the size condition and price you want. But for those people on the LC forum saying "those soles are too icy don't buy them" or "look at how high/low the patent leather cut is they must be fake" are making it sound like you're buying an inferior product when you're not. My previous post showed that if you're going by the "flaws" of the shoe you could very well discount a ton of retail pairs as fake or inferior when that just isn't the case at all. This is why ninja hood has been spending all this time trying to show people the difference between retail and unauthorized, and the difference between fake/replica and unauthorized.Man, now that they are selling these high quality "authentics" in half sizes with the real boxes, packaging, etc. It's a wrap for Ebay sales without a receipt.

LOL seriously. The only reason some of my shoes are DS is just cause I haven't gotten around to wearing them yet. But as far as grey market goes if all that's determining the price of these 11s is that thin piece of paper we call a receipt and nikes authorization then choice is easy to me. But if people want to pay 200-300 over retail for a piece of paper and the thumbs up from a person in a factory in china somewhere be my guest. But that's essentially what you're paying for when these grey markets are going for around retail.I wear all of my shoes, always have. I can't even comprehend why someone would want to "collect" an article of clothing. I'm not that type of person.
Yeah, definitely post some pics when you get them in!I ordered some "authentic" Space Jams. I am going to compare those to the real ones and post some pics. If those work out, I am going to order the "authentic" breds and compare those to my officials as well.

No one knows what 'grey market' is, but it's provacative. It gets the people going! But seriously if they are made 3rd party to spec would that make a difference? As long they are just as good that's all that matters right? Personally no shoe is worth more than retail at this point...smh if these shoes are really that good and available for cheap in bulk resellers will switch buying methods and retail pairs will once again be available to regular people.

I can totally understand huge fans of yeezys n corks buying grey market
But i wouldnt myself

I definitely will, unless the mods tell me not to. I know that we are treading on dangerous ground with this thread in the first place.
The Space Jams cost me $250 with shipping and 4 keychains included (otherwise shipping would have been $100), so I am hoping that they are pretty damb close in quality to real ones.

Wow and to think SJ on the resell market are close to $500.
Looking forward to the pics.
Someone hit up nightwing on youtube and tell him to do the same, he won't mind actually dissecting the sneaker (not suggesting you do that at all).
this obviously can't be real life??Reasons not to buy fakes (grey market shoes are fake)
1 - their sellers are stealing others' intellectual property
2 - it hurts the economy
3 - contributes to increasing the deficit (no tax revenues)
4 - funds illegal activity
5 - you are spending real money for fake goods.
if those five reasons aren't enough, you're probably beyond reasoning with
