Hey Guys, advice for a newbie -
mistyman - 07-10-06
Hey guys, this seems like a cool forum. I've only owned one set of SSs before and loved them but wore them to death. Now i want some Watermelons, I love that glow in the dark UV sh*t. Found a couple of pares of ebay but not sure if they're fakes. These ones only have six eye holes, from what I’ve read on here that means they have to be suss.

Don't want to spend my hard earned on rubbish. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I'd see if hes got any more pics, cause those are just manufacturers. Havent heard of CLRs being faked though.

Hey, Sorry to keep buggin you guys but i saw these as well and can't
believe that they could be going so cheap if there's only 4000 made

I feel a proper SS collection coming on and don't want to waste money. Think i'm going to get the CLRs though.
Thanks again.

Need more photos from him but there's a bloody good chance that they will be fake.

Yeah, your instinct is probably correct..
Tsubasa's DO NOT go for £15 if they are the real deal..
Ask for more pics and post them!

I've given up on the Tsubasa's, like you say, if they are that cheap something has to be dodgy. However i'm looking at a pair of the G5 camos instead. The seller has posted lots of pics but i still think that the stiching looks a bit shoddy around the back and the eyes. Once again your opinions would be truely valued.

I reckon these are fakes, not sure though. Wait 'til Pure gets a verdict before bidding.

Don't know too much about the Adicolors.
They don't look good to me though.

Fake.
Always check the sellers other items. Consortiums for £180 buy it now? I think not.

You're right mistyman the G5's are definately fake the stitching is shite and the eyelets are all over the place and it has the little nib on the heel too- no genuine adicolors have it.
