Man I’ve been working from home because my state isn’t fully opened yet. Bored thinking of ways to make extra money and I saw cheap (valuable) “new” Jordan’s all over eBay. So I made sure I filtered new shoes and authentication, ordered at least 7 pairs all worth double what I paid or more. Also had “money back guarantees” so I wasn’t worried. Out of the 5 pairs I’ve received so far, 2 actually may of been “new unworn” as eBay describes. One pair literally had dirt all in bottoms was blatantly obvious they were used. So I opened a case sent them the pics soon as I opened them. I also called and was promised I my money back. Two days later case closed they sided with authenticator. Of the 4 “new” pairs I reposted on eBay, 3 of them I’ve posted as used, because I’m honest. One I posted on StockX, the only pair that might pass an actual inspection. Haven’t lost money because even used the deals I get are good enough. But I don’t to scrub the bottoms of shoes I bought as unused for a $15 profit. All different sizes as well, so eBay thinks I wear them for an hour and lie, plus my foot changes sizes. That would be the only reasoning for not fulfilling two guarantees. Haven’t stopped buying for a reason, I’m recording every pair from the minute the box arrives. I will expose them and make them get real inspectors. In my 5th year of law school, while I haven’t lost money, in a way I have. If I received what I was “guaranteed” I would of made about an extra $1000. Not saying it’s worth a civil suit yet, but if that profit loss keeps going up and they keep doing nothing then it may be. My 5 year said the shoes were dirty, it’s like they just slap “new” a tag on it. One pair did not pass, must of hit by a truck a few times. This will end up being a major problem for eBay if they don’t start listening to the customer’s instead of the “experts”.
