No joke 90% of shoes on ebay are fake and really their customer feeback rating is usually a waste of time. Most peeps who buy kickz off the net cant tell the difference between the real thing and a fake anyways so they always leave good feedback.
A few rules i have:
~If they have private feedback never purchase under any circumstances
~Less then 100 feeback dont purchase
~if they have an entire shoe size run for a really limited or rare shoe they are definately fake
For shoes you can check sites like
