publicenemyno.3 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 any responsible buyer would request better pictures and research their purchase on something like this. i was bidding on some sample kicks a minute ago that seemed a little sketchy so i contacted the artist that designed the sneakers to confirm it. so i got a pair of shoes that are legit and rare as fuck. caveat emptor.

Would you feel better if I got a hold of him so he can authenticate it? All I need to do is make a phone call and see what he's got to say about it. edit- there's a couple of things about this that ring true if you have a little inside knowledge, but I'm gonna make a call in the morning for the hell of it. I agree, if it's a fake he should know and Burlingame is not far from where we grew up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shai Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 So it took five minutes to get a qualified opinion, and they agreed that it's real...but either way he wouldn't remember one bottle that probably took him fifteen minutes to paint ten years ago. This actually makes sense, because I remembered that he painted my friend's messenger bag one night in 2000. As I recall it only took him 30 minutes to ride a half mile to his studio, paint the character then ride back and drop it off. So yeah, it's probably real but it's way overpriced.
