It ain't my fault your skanky ass be walking round in Silver Shadows bro, you really should spend some of that £30k on styling yourself and catching up.

That website, what happens if they don’t accept paypal? Have to pay direct by bank transfer? Can only see sellers without PayPal for the ones I want. £30 for a pair that cost £280 and are only going up in price, worth seeing how **** fakes they are

Personally I’d only buy them using PayPal as you’ll get a refund if they don’t turn up. But if you’re willing to take a risk on £30 notes then check the seller’s rating. That should give you an idea of how reliable they are.

As I’ve said I’ve bought shoes from there before and got them in the post 3 weeks later from China, no dramas. <ok>

**** it, I've ordered them. Will let you know how good/bad they are if they ever arrive. I used to order football shirts off Ali Express which all came straight from China/Thailand and they were perfect quality, only about £15 each as well. When I was over there I met a guy who said that all the stuff was made over there anyway and people in the factories just used to rob/get given imperfect stuff and sell them on the streets. So whilst they were "fake" they were actually made exactly the same way as stuff you would buy over here.

I also met an English dude who said he used to go over to Thailand and buy 1000s of plain t shirts and logos seperately, ship them back to the UK seperately as that is apparently legal then attach the logos in the UK and sell them to shops. Said he sold his **** to basically every big sports chain you can think of, no idea how true that is though.

Yep, that's what I've read on sneaker forums. That they are made in the same factories, and some slip through the net. Or some people just use the same blueprints and materials from the factories and make them in their own 'factory'

Good luck mate, you should be alright. There's always a few shysters out there but in my experience using iOffer is no worse than using eBay. 95% of people are genuine sellers.
 
Here's my take on these 'fakes'. The ones I've ordered before are as good as the originals, and as I've already noted, it's probably because they are made in the same factories. So, what's the ethical take on this ? Some people will say buying fakes is unethical, personally if Nike are paying people peanuts to make shoes for them in China, Indonesia etc that cost £3 to make and then Nike sell them for £120, then I don't have a problem if those same guys then make a few more on the side and sell them on to me for £20 and make £17 for themselves.

What I do have a problem with, is people who buy fakes and then try to sell them on as orginals for £120.

Went for US 12

I'd check the EU sizing mate. Most of them list the actual sizes available in EU sizing, so even if the drop down menu has them in size 12 UK, it then says it only goes up to 46 (UK11) on the available sizes. You should be alright as most of them go up to 46, which frustratingly are just one size too small for me.

Yeah EU46 is the highest there, as you say 11 is fine for me though
