Ask for a picture of the spare orange laces.
If they fill the packet, they are cool, if they at all limp, blow 'em out.

I'm not convinced, he has too many pairs in the common sizes and his Tokyos look fake to me they've got that little nib bit on the heel and the clear tag holder doesn't appear to have the flat section. Get more photos at least of the heel and spare laces of the NYs.

thanks for your advice guys, I did ask him for more pics which confirmed that the back of the shoe has the flaw thats been talked about. In addition, the laces aren't original adidas ones but some generic orange ones.
So if anyone is reading then you may want to avoid

Hi Guys - before you boo me out of town I am Retrosneaks and have found the website after been concerned by an e-mail from Ajay about the New York Superstars I am selling on ebay. I bought a bunch of these as I thought it was a good idea to start up in business but obviously I am now concerned that the product might not be up to scratch. I need your help! I'm not a dodgy get looking to hoodwink people and have bought all of my products in good faith. Is there anyone I can e-mail a load of pictures to to see if you (the experts!) can help me verify these pumps?

Great - what's your e-mail or am I being dumb and just not seeing it somewhere else on the site?

If im bieng perfectly honest, i dont think the pics will be sufficient.. The things i look out for, aint there.. i.e. the lable on the box, and closeups of the quality of the stiching..

They do look a bit squashed.
