Lol you sound a bit salty bro. And yeah he is selling them for 320, lets face it..that IS the best price youre going to find unless you know someone personally.

320 is not the best price, dude of mines SOLD his pair for 280, sz 10.5. 

  

good for your dude 

 im just telling you guys the price my brother wants for them. he sold a size 10.5 for 320 yesterday. the guy he sold them to was about to buy them for $350 from someone else.
i don't have any control over his prices, i'm just passing the word along since all of our circle who wanted these has them already.

Decided to put my men's 9.5 up on Craigslist last night to see if anyone was biting. Posted them for $325 woke up with 12 people willing to buy + 2 offering me $350! This is crazy.

i ordered the day it was posted on NT. got shipping confirmation within two days. but waited forever for the shoes. and yes i ordered two pairs. In the end i just denied customs and ask paypal for a refund. Because it was a german site, the lady i talk to on the phone for paypal said she will refund me the money right away because she didnt want to deal with it

I made two separate orders for that heads up on customes charges. That's why I love the NT fam!

 What size did you order from FNL?  I hope my pairs come in immaculate condition.

 

[waitwut]

What are some of the giveaways that help determine a real shoe from the fake ones? What are some of the things to look for? Any help please would be apperciated.

I received my pair today from Eastbay and they are lovely couldn't be happier, my tag reads 6/8/11-9/2/11 if that helps anyone.

This time I read on here that this release was gonna be different didn't believe the hype. Wife and I each had a PC set up at midnight sharp on release, both got to checkout and NDC and Eastbay and both crashed. Failed! Cousin went to a restock today in LA that I got a tip from on here....my size was sold out. Failed again! Im not gonna give up. Reading too many success stories of people getting their pairs. Congrats to all, look forward to following up with a praise report.

Stay on the hunt and keep up with the positive thinking. You'll get yours one way or the other.

 

[riddla713]

toecap should not be transparent, 23 on back shouldnt be stretched out width wise, suggested retail price sticker should be connected to box tag, production tag should show a production period of 2+ months, carbon fiber should not be able to be scratched off.

Well pleasant good evening to the fam, just glad to see everyone got their pairs and how the lord has blessed me at the end of the yr i heard fedex at the door expecting a small box with one pair from a site i ordered only 1pair from, but low and behold the box was bigger and i opened the box to two pairs of shoes i did the moonwalk dougie and stanky leg in one move and proceeded to share the wealth god has given me and sold the next pair to my boy for retail 

P.S no pm's asking me questions either cause im not answering

Quality, overall shape. The XI shape is hard to get on point usually, but for the concords I would say the patent leather cut, the toe box fiasco that was going on before would probably be an indicator. How some pairs got a clear toe cap compared to a milky one like now. I would say the JOQDAN pairs aren't real but I'll probably get flamed for it. Thats just my opinion. You should just be able to tell really.. by looking at them. Or post pictures on here for help.

A lot of people say the "JOQDAN" on the tongue is a giveaway. Others like the "Concord God" himself Nooblee say it's a common factory defect. I wouldn't %%+@ with XI's that say "JOQDAN".

correct me if i am wrong,
really appreciate it

I'd really like to know if the dates are a clear indication as well.  The grey market pairs I have have June/July dates also.  To anyone that actually noticed, sorry for typing in yellow earlier, wasn't trying to impersonate a mod (completely forgot), just messing around with font colors at the moment.  

Actually ALL early pairs from ANY source back this summer and fall who had em are all FAKE.I had samples sent to me but I couldn't sell them and say they were authentic I wouldn't put my name on em at all.These things all had actually materials but were assembled elsewhere not in the same factory. Believe me I know the whole game of that early *!@%. Very small differences you can't barely tell from afar but when you compare them side by side it's off. Best move would be to cut both in half and see what's really goin on inside the early ones.Remember those Pontiac Fieros? Lol dudes used to put a Ferrari kit on em and front. Same thing goin on now with these early Js...

NOW THATS CHRISTMAS SPIRIT. Fam helpin eachother out right there.

 

[horrorkid]

Everyone in my house is at work right now and UPS decides to show up earlier than normal and drop my pair at my doorstep. My brother sends our friend over to pick em up and they try to **** with me and say there's nothing there. I knew they'd do this but it still made me nervous. He told me when I said I'd call UPS then. 4.5 hours until I get to see em! I know both of them are going to have that box ripped open when I get home. Haha.

 

[thefoamcollector]

Im pretty satified with my pair from ndc, no where near the ogs or 2000 pairs but times have changed. Only gripes i have is the price and the fact i didnt double up. Btw these fit true to sz for me and not a half sz smaller like the space jams from a couple years ago

 

[you go boy]

duraclear slows the yellowing down. just put some on the clear sole

 

[mrdozo]

I don't know why I bother coming into this thread. All these pics of multiple pairs while im still looking for my 1.
im not coming back in here until I cop a pair.
It may be never lol

 

[philaflava1]

thread is nothing but a who got the a bigger d*ck contest.

I was gonna give up (especially after missing my size 12 on Jimmy Jazz a couple of pages back)...but after reading this, F it, I ain't giving up neither.
