Why bother asking? You know these are scams right?
Let me guess, a link you found on facebook?
Fake crap from China that you will pay for and not get, since theses places get shut down.

Of course not

Just that junky name is evidence enough that this is not one of the limited number of authorized dealers, rather it's one of the countless Chinese counterfeit sites.

Just to confirm it...
A whois look up

Surprise, the 5 month old site shows a U.S. registration address, but the same registrant email address is used for a 2 month old site registered to an address in a different state. sorefuture.org a sneaker blog.



Here are some large respected shoe sites:
Zappos.com (has free shipping and return shipping) did have some bad publicity after their customer database was hacked.
6pm.com ( Zappos owned clearance store)
Onlineshoes.com
Shoebuy.com
Shoemetro.com
eastbay.com (shares facilities with Footlocker)


There are forums that are dedicated to sneakers, and can be educational.

While not a clearly document-able Chinese counterfeit site, it has all of the ear marks, note the Contact Us page says "Thank you for shopping by b2bsds.com" showing how sloppy this site was copied from another template site. They also say "We are a leading wholesale company in Xiamen, China." in the About Us page despite the site being registered to a U.S. address, assume everything is lies.

The trust seals at the bottom are fakes (not clickable) any site asking for your money but not giving a identifying phone or address should is suspect.

100% scam.

That is a fake website pretending to sell cheap merchandise.

Any site that advertises merchandise cheaper than the official manufacture's website is a fake site shipping gosh awful crappy knock-offs or simply collecting cash and not even bothering to ship fakes.

The pictures on the site look like the real merchandise because those pictures ARE of the official merchandise. Those pictures were stolen from the official manufacture's website. If you receive anything at all, which is doubtful, it will not resemble those pretty pictures at all.

The payment options say it all, Western Union and moneygram, only anonymous cash payments.

Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.

In all seriousness, when something goes wrong, what will you do? Send an email that is ignored and blocked? Send chat requests until you are ip banned? Call internationally and speak fluent Chinese?

The UPS, TNT and DHL icons are there only to take up space, that site only ships with EMS, the Chinese post office, good luck getting the "tracking number" they give you to work on the EMS website. You will need even more luck trying to contact EMS when your tracking stops and your "package" is lost somewhere.

You could then be really lucky, your "package" is discovered, seized by "customs" and all you need to do is pay even more money via Western Union or moneygram to the "custom's official" who uses a free email address just like that site has a free email address as its contact information.

Free email addresses are easy to open and close completely anonymously.
