thought it was implied, but you're right there is no way of knowing, why not flex a real pair and pretend like you have access them. i know its not posters pics

So are these sites selling releases months in advance legit? My friend bought a pair of Red Nubuck 4s for $265 and they dont release for another month or 2. How does one know if they are legit if the Authentic pairs have yet to release in stores? I always wait until release day and get them from a local store. I'm too scared to risk it with these guys that are selling early releases for $225 and up. Thanks in advance guys

I wasn't implying that they were GM just cuz they're in china, I mentioned it because those pics are in this thread
 
Jordan's are quite easy to tell if they are grey market or fake but is any one fimiliar with the Lebron X here?

Below is the worst pair of SJ Ive seen pics off. Is yours a half size like 9.5 or 10.5 etc? because they only make fakes in .5s so if your a 9,10,11,12 you should be good.

What's wrong with the crown jewels exactly? I don't have the shoe so I don't see what's wrong with them besides the crack on the box

Sorry for the confusion, the pics I posted are from a shipping factory. Buyers use their channels and pay this factory money to obtain the items and ship it out for them. Before they ship the items they take a picture of your items and the receipt with tracking info. I can't post pics of their receipt, but depending on what you consider GM is up to you to decide. In most of the pics I posted, after looking at the date and receipt of which it was purchased, I assumed they are GM. Example being I posted a pair off Toro IVs that was shipped out in February, I assume this pair was made and sold without Nike knowing, since it was sold 5 months before the release date and the photos of the shoe looks like the same as the pairs I see in the official forum. Those Lebron X I posted was bought from a factory/store that has a lot of pairs that I think are GM. However I only seen one pair at the shipping factory so maybe it's not. If I seen I pair of Jordan 17s or Ray Allen 13s at this shipping factory, I am going to assume they are GM. I guess instead of labeling the shoes GM, I should say these shoes are bought from venders that don't have to abide by Nikes release dates/inventory rules. You can see pics for yourself. My local footlocker last week received 24 pairs of Jordan 11 lows and 2 months ago a factory sold 12 pairs to a person in New York that pics I seen looks the same.... I will keep posting pics of what stands out to be fishy, it's debatable what you want to call em. Ninja hood sparked my interest about GM shoes and after digging a little thru people I know I found some interesting info.

I seen about 100 pairs of the black and grape Vs go thru this shipping factory in the last 3 months...fishy

Yeah I am worried that my "pre-order" site might be holding onto a stash of those early Black Grapes for shipment on RD.  I only guess this because a few weeks ago they had posted FSR of Concords, Jams, Breds, and CGs.  Now they are gone from the site, but posts indicating the same thing are on twitter/instagram.  I emailed, and guy said I could get a receipt, but that couldn't be that hard right.

I wonder what the tells would be, I will attempt to get a retail pair to compare.
 
What I find odd is that, why haven't the Black Tongue Fire Red Vs not on the Grey Market? Don't those come out in August? Prolly made in a different factory I assume.
