Thanks for replying - much appreciated. Have tried to sign up for Twitter and join the 21st Century but it keeps telling me my phone number is not recognized or that they will send me a passcode to my email which never arrives! Would love to trade outside of eBay but not sure how...

The reason they went to their authentication team I believe is they sold for over £100. Got the original box & tags but no receipt. Pretty sure I got them from Offspring or Size? in Brighton so should be legit... Definitely kangaroo hide same as the original reissue of the Italia was - got a pair of them to punt too!

Did they give a reason for the rejection? Can’t see how you can fake Kang leather as very different feel to run of the mill stuff.

I know it doesn’t help but been lots of folks complaining about the authenticity team.

Lucky you having those MIG Italias blinding pair!

Hi - apologies for asking my question on this platform but I can't set up a Twitter account for some reason! Do you know anything about the provenance of the adidas Rom 60 MIG? I bought a pair from Offspring in Brighton some 20 years ago and just sold them on eBay only to have their authentication team declare them counterfeit! They won't tell me why so am trying to establish what might be going on! Any help/advice appreciated

Sorry SB those FleEbay Authenticators a law unto themselves.

What I don’t understand is did buyer ask for them to be authenticated or was it yourself? Most get adidas trainers are bought without this.

Great stuff! How did some retailers get to punt out the Berlins early and any news on the release date for the Monopoly Londons?

Hi SB-thanks for the supportive words.

Berlins?-Retailers are given guidelines/ rules as to when they’re to released stock, some don’t stick to it and go early.. they like the hype…..

I remember the GT Manchester went early in Dubai but as you’ll know it happens with loads of releases.

Just yesterday an Austrian retailer released the new Spzl dear stalker hat!

As for the Monopoly London’s-I am sure Craig will have news on those in the next couple of issues.
