Here's how I spotted my first pair of Fake Retro Jordan's,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Sheldon Smith
Now, there I was, glued to my computer counting down the minutes in which I was to inherit one of the greatest masterpieces ever created. One which rivals the great paintings and sculptures from the likes of Michelangelo, Rembrandt and even Picasso - dare I say! In my sniper-like fashion, I waited and waited just in case someone dared to outbid me. It was down to crunch time now and I opened up my second browser window. The first was placed in bid mode just incase I needed to increase my bid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while the other was refreshed every 10 seconds so that I can track it all down in real time. Finally, 1 minute and 11 seconds later,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I breathe a sigh of relief and began doing my "happy" dance.
Why was I so happy, you ask? Did I win the National Lottery? Did I become Donald Trump's new apprentice? No,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it ranks a very close second to all of the aboveI won my first pair of Retro Jordan XI (That's eleven to the uninitiated). These are perhaps the most popular Jordan's, and even shoes for that matter, that have ever been produced. My time finally came as it had been 9 years since I first saw them in my local Footlocker and missed out on my chance to get them. Now I had to wait 2 weeks more. Oh, the Suspense!
Two week later,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Tuesday 10:00 am, just like clockwork the postman (Mail Carrier to be PC) arrives. A few seconds later I hear the door slam which can only mean on thing - They're here! So I rush to the door, pick up the package and proceed to my room. Closing the door behind me, just like a child on Christmas Day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I frantically proceed to rip open the package. In the midst of all of this a thought enters my head - Where were they shipped from? I take a moment to look at the shipping label and notice that it came from California and not form Shanghai or Hong Kong. So far so good. I finally get the box unwrapped and glance at the product label. It reads "Retro Jordan 11". Now I notice something here which I'll get to later on (Point #1). I opened the lid and the retro card was sitting right on top of the tissue wrapped shoes. I take it out so I can look at the other Retro Jordan's and reminisce. It's at this point that I notice something else that threw me off once more which I'll also get to later on (Points 4
Now before I removed the tissue I lit up a cigar, as any man would when introducing a new arrival to the family. And there they were,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], brand spanking new,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my new Retro XI's in the Black/Varsity Red-White colorway. I also noticed that the material on which the "23" is printed is sticking out (Point 6). I shrugged it off and decided to try them on as the final test. Guess what?! They were too small. I immediately took them off and looked at the product tag inside. It read "Made in China, 020608 LNR3. That was the final straw that made me go from total elation to utter disappointment.
All the signs were there and I had come to the realization that I was duped. I was bamboozled. I was taken in. Either way you put it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I was now in possession of brand new Retro Jordan XI FAKES!! So,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what do I do? Do I place them back up on auction and get my money back? NO WAY, that would make me just as dishonest as the guy who sold them to me. My next step was to contact the buyer, but before I was to do that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I needed to examine the shoes in detail and make a list. Nike never made this shoe in 2002.
The points listed above apply to the Retro Jordan XI's. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you should use these points as guidelines when purchasing other Retro Jordan's from the net or a local flea market vendor. Is the background the same? Are there weird numbers on a few of the pictures? Do they have the Neon Green XI's in stock? If so,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], don't even think about buying. If you want more proof never be afraid to ask the seller to provide you with more pictures.
One last thing to remember is the universal rule that applies to any and everything that you purchase - Buyer Beware! Do yourself a favor and do your research first before you end up like I did. Oh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and if you're wondering about my Fakes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I have since contacted the buyer and the auction site.
