Damn, I wonder how many people are duped like that and have fakes in their collection and don't even know.

If you ever seen a real one, a fake is not hard to tell. The print is pixellated, details like the white in the bulls eye is not there. I'm not even an expert but wow, this is soo sad that someone would do this.

+1...LOL
I'm sure the USPS carrier carries fake Jordan RCs with him/her all the time. And knows exactly which package has the real Jordan.

A screen shot of the message the seller sent to you (OP) will be great.

Plot twist. What if the OP actually received the graded Jordan?

Good point...

As much as I don't like Brooklyn(lol), shouldn't we hear from the seller? Is he/she a member here?

Not saying OP is lying, but at the same time OP is unknown to us as the seller is??? I don't know either party, so both sides should be heard. Heck, both sides should ALWAYS be heard, unless the person is a known shiller/thief.

I have no idea either way myself. But scammers are always out there and unless someone knows either of these guys we may never know the truth.

Do you have one with headers and your question prior. That message does not match the width I am use to seeing over the years
