i bought two pairs of superstars and i'm not sure - sin`pl - 23-06-06

hello, i bought today two pairs of superstars and i'm not sure if they are original... i bough them for 89PLN/each wich is around 21.67EUR - i think it's good price.

here are pictures:
these are my old, used by me, with custom laces and custom lacing method






adidas superstar 35th
there is a bit odd thing - on toe, the size says 45 1/3 but on the piece of paper - 44...
















another adidas superstar - i don't know wich model is this

The white etched 35th are definitely fake.

They look quite good, but they should only have 6 eyelets for the laces, not 7 as yours have.

shit, looks like its true.

also, the additional laces are RED... not black like on the link above shit, what i can do now? seller doesn't accept refund...

You should contact PayPal (assuming you have paid using PayPal) and ask them for a refund. If they can't help you your bank should be able to refund you within 30 days of purchase.

good luck mate!

i'm from poland, i bought it from Allegro.pl (it's like ebay, you know, bidding etc but in polish). i made a standard bank transfer...

I guess your bank should still be able to reverse the transaction, so try contacting them and see what they can do.

i'll try but the callline is busy right now...

look at this webshop - [ i deleted link to that webshop, please do not repost it ] - they are selling fakes too?

---

- dj_wildthing - 23-06-06

Good question, the site is very complex and they have a huge stock, but judging by the prices and some of the models they have available I would say yes, they're selling fakes.

For instance, the Lee Quinones Superstars are really hard to find these days and yet they have them available for $44. Also, their picture of the white etched Superstars have 7 eyelets as well, so it looks a bit dodgy.

i talked with webshop admin - after i all explained to she, she agreed with me that they are fakes...

Re-post the link to the shop in "Named and shamed" please mate..

Unlucky with the 35th fakes

the bottom ones look cool, but there is something slightly strange about them

I think its the print on the tounge thats making me unsure.. :/

- sin`pl - 23-06-06

i won't post that link because peoples won't read these posts but they will look at the price and buy it

what about the black ones? 100% original?

I reckon the WVs are legit, never heard of them being faked before and they look kosher to me

---

- sin`pl - 23-06-06

so, you want them? :> it's not my size, usually i wear 45 1/3 (29cm)..

---

WVs would probably difficult to fake anyway. all that weaving
