reply:
i am sorry you were duped. but it would be better to swallow your losses than sell them to recoup. we appreciate your consideration in not letting it happen again. but unfortunately if you continue with the auction, within 48 hours we will take action unless the listing is removed. i dont think they are worth the trouble you will be faced with just to recover a few quid in losses. your best bet is to contact the supplier you got them from and get your money back based on the fact that you were not expecting snides. cheers.
**UPDATE**
seller removed all his fakes! woo hoo! another small battle won!

I have 100% positive feedback and have no complaints from customers!
I am reporting you for sending me abusive emails also.

so i replied:
of course you got that e-mail from another member. and expect a lot more from even more members flooding in. your "nike" factory is in china - confirmation, what, you have maybe some "official certificates of authenticity"? ebay may do that, remove listing and give back fees, buts it not ebay you need to worry about. its Nike you will have to worry about. your customers are uneducated consumers who dont know any better (or idiots who dont care), looking for a cheap deal on snide shoes that will fall apart after a few wearings. of course you have positive feedback - they recieved what they got. soon they will find out the cheap crap you sold them, but by then nike will have shut you down.
**EDIT**:
reply from him: | Quote: | Ok, you have voiced your opinion. You obviously have nothing better to do with your life but send abusive emails to people trying to earn an honest living. If and when nike contact me, I shall give them all the details of my supplier. Until then, abusive little people like you, will not bother me.
Goodbye!

to which i replied:
I have plenty better to do, but one of the things i do in my spare time is help out in combatting sellers of fake rifts. there is NOTHING "honest" about earning a living banking on the idiocy of the uneducated consumer by selling them snide products. there will be more people "with no lives" who will bombard you with emails like mine. i have not voiced my opnion. i have voiced FACT. good luck in providing nike with genuine infomation from your so-called supplier.
feking idiot. PLEASE bombard this seller especially!!!!!!
**2ND EDIT:**
she replied:
| Quote: | Thanks very much for your input.
When I do hear from Nike, I will provide all details that I have and suppliers details, I cant be more honest than that. If they turn out to be duds, then I will have learnt a lesson.
thanks for your advice.

i got another reply
-izzybing
Thanks for the lovely email BK. These are not fake as i don't have to explain where i purchased them from, but they are from good source, from a chain of UK sports shops, the person i deal with is the purchasing manager for this national company, so unless they are buying fake poducts and selling them as original the whole country is up to it, including these so called national companies. I purchase goods under complete satisfaction that they are of authentic quality and under the impression of their autnenticity. I don't believe in fakes and i certainly don't believe in money laundering and drug related sales. I am a professional businesswoman and am totally offended in the nature of your email and your complete attitude. So don't for once think you can say to me "that i know that they are fake", without knowing me as a person and don't judge me like most of the dregs of society selling to make a living sitting on their asses fixed to their screen. If i have been screwed, please explain to me how, as i really don't know where i have gone wrong.
Thanks again for this lovely email.
Lucy.

HOW DO YOU KNOW ! YOU MUST NOT HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO !!!! DO WHAT YOU LIKE I HAVE RECEIPTS FROM EPI IN WALTHAM CORSS IN LONDON WHO HAPPEN TO BE THE BIGGEST NIKE CLEARANCE DEPOT IN THE UK SO DO WHAT YOU LIKE OH AND BY THE WAY YOU ARE WRONG.
tim that info could be useful as that could be where all these sellers are getting their stock from, they may be paid a visit from trading standards |
pcmcmo2006 sold these Item number: 250112547604 among others. We know he's selling fakes but if there was any doubt tell him that Nike didnt make that colourway in that size.
whats important here is you send the message letting them know they arent gonna be just reported to Nike (to be honest nike is the least of their worries!) its trading standards and HMC revenue and customs thats gonna take immediate and serious action. Nike are at the back of the queue of who they are gonna get done by. The message again...
| rich04 wrote: | I am not sure if you are aware but the 'Nike' Air Rifts you have for sale are fakes. This is a quick email to make you aware of this and to give you 48hours to cancel your counterfeit auctions. If your auctions are not removed within 48hours please be aware that I will be filing a report which will be sent to the following authorities:
1. Trading standards
2. Consumer Direct
3. Hewitsons (Nike UK's legal department)
4. HM Revenue & Customs
5. Department for Work and Pensions
6. eBay's VERO department
You may not be aware but there is a new system where we can automatically report you to ALL of the authorities above simply by entering your ebay username and item numbers. HMRC and Trading Standards do not accept ignorance as an excuse. You are literally 1 click away from being reported and then Trading Standards can take the matter further.
This is not a threat, this is the action that I will take if your counterfeit items are still listed in 48hours time. |
Also its the BIG sellers that need targetted not the person selling 1 pair as they may not have realised and arent really as important on the grand scheme of things. Its the big guns that are constantly flooding eBay with fakes that are going to get prosecuted. I'd say anyone that has listed (or sold) 5 pairs of fakes would be priority as they are the ones that trading standards will act on. _________________ Nike Air Rift - Nike Trainers - Nike Sandals - Nike Shoes

oh my god i cannot believe it, i just received this
Hello, the counterpart of rift man USA.
If you want the total market to youselves then this will not happen, you must think everyone is as dim as you, you can get together with your US muccer and get lost once and for all, one thing I do know is that you are not very cleaver, If you think I am going to listern to a small child giving out orders, you have to be joking, get a grip on yourselves, did you read my rift man poem, it was very good and it's obvious he has a side kick "rifter boy" can you not do things for yourself, why listern to a yank, I bet he didn't show you the first reponce I sent back to him, with regards to him sorting out the US market instead of looking over here, all the problems they have and they still are manipulating people over here just like Bush and Blair, instead theres Rift man and Rifter boy. get a grip on yourself and grow up, start thinking for yourself and stop being a puppet for the yank.
I know where my Rifts are from and that they are the real thing, so do what you will, I am OK with it, if I carry on getting these emails one thing I will do is send them to ebay myself, to see if this is ahrasment and threating behaviour which I belive it to be.
I will end it here, I belive there is more important things in this life, I don't play on it but I'm in a wheelchair, as I had an accident at work in 1999, I was on benifits until 2005, when I started selling on ebay, now I can hold my head up high again and support my family again without benifits, so I am sure you are a very big man and think you are doing the right thing, but your not, the next email will go to ebay, as harrasment so lets not Rift anymore, to have a Rift over this is just not real as there is other things in this world that need all your help and Rift man USA, poverty, cancer & starvation.
I have just read your last comment and it rings a bell, I have a message from you about 4 weeks ago about the same thing, I will forward that to ebay as well. Regards.
Hello.
Could you please answer a question, you say they are new without box, then you go on to say they are hardly used, which is it? Or are you misleading the public, I think you should end this auction now not in 48 hours time, plus your socks are out of there plactic bag, not very hygenic with your second pair on Auction, anyone can take a pair of socks out of a plastic bag and make out that there Rifts are the real thing, if they are not removed I will get them removed because of the wording not because they are fake, which I belive they are, so at the end of the day it works both ways.
Regards
Chris @ Ellenstrainers
PS I'm not afraid to put my name to my emails, I took it all as a joke to start with but this is out of hand, you friend in the US said that my price is giving the game away, as to my Rifts being fake, well £4.99 and £15.99 what can I say?
I know where my Rifts are from do you have you a Certificate to sell them? is it a Nike certificate? look within first!!!
both from ellenstrainers
i dont know whether to laugh or cry
please bombard them with messages saying their rifts are fakes |

can anyone help me out with a reply. i don't want to appear abusive, and want to keep it calm and straight to the point.
is this OK?
Hello again,
Please read this message carefully. With regards to your first point about wanting the market to myself that is complete rubbish, the fact is people like you are ruining the rift market with your cheap fakes which you sell. With regards to your second point, I am not quite sure why you bring politics and world issues into the equation. What have they got to do with fake rifts? If, in your heart of hearts you honestly think your rifts are real (which they are not I can assure you) then you can think that. I do not need to prove to you that they are fake, I know. If you have contacted eBay that is fine with me, I have nothing to worry about as I have not used language which is threatening, neither have I harassed you. I am sure, if you have contacted them, that they will see your items are fake and ban you as it is illegal to sell counterfeit items. Your second message is rather irrelevant as you are trying to convince me that the rifts I sell are fake, which I assure you they aren't. You can try and get it removed if you wish, but you will fail. You say that it is unhygienic to photo the rifts out of their bag... what bag? authentic Nike air rifts never came in a bag, and this further proves your naivety. As for your certificate, it is fake just like your rifts. You ask me for my certificate which I don't really understand... you don't need to have a certificate to sell on eBay.
Regards,
Ben |

sounds ok to me ben.
come on people, this guy is rediculous - EVERYONE needs to pitch in and e-mail this w*nker and the other fake sellers... but this one especially. the more he gets, the more he will realize he cannot win.
copy and paste is easy, and you can do it while surfing the net, its not hard. i dont want to hear that its just me, ben, barry, and tim e-mailing these guys?! there are loads of us here, and we all need to do this for it to work best! |

oh right i didn't realise. why are they fakes ?
I replied: That nike did not make that colourway and that he would find out when the nike legal team visited him.
He replied:
jamie012002 is the seller.
NO PROBLEM. WILL TAKE YOUR WORD FOR IT AND CANCEL THE LISTING ND TAKE IT UP WITH THE SHOP I PURCHASED THEM FROM. THANKS
The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale.
Seller: jamie012002
Another winner:
This listing (150124812252) has been removed or is no longer available. Please make sure you entered the right item number.
If the listing was removed by eBay, consider it canceled. Note: Listings that have ended more than 90 days ago will no longer appear on eBay.

Come on you noobs lets get everyone posting to the fake fuckers!
Can we get a list of links directly to the sellers similar to what barrys done above so we can just click once then ask question about the fake & send it? That would make it easier for lazy people like me.
go, go, gooooooooooooooooooooooo |

|

Hi,
Just wanted to clarify how it works with Trading Standards
If a consumer has an issue about a product they should report it to their Local Trading Standards Dept. which can be found by tapping in their post code here:
http://www.tradingstandards.gov.uk/
In the case where the address of the manufacturer/retailer etc is known the consumer's local Trading Standards Office should contact the 'home authority' i.e. the office local to the 'offender' who should take up the matter. TBH I don't know what the consumer's contact will do in the case wher this is not known.
The advantage of complainants contacting their local office is that many more TSO's will get involved and there is bound to be a central collation of activity which should highlight how big an issue this has become. Secondly Trading Standards have a huge area of responsibility and there resouces ar spread pretty thinly - by speading the complaints over many local authorities action is more likley rather than piling them all into one office. _________________ I love my Rifts |

This programme is off air until the autumn but according to the website they can still be contacted
http://www.bbc.co.uk/consumer/tv_and_radio/watchdog/
This would seem to be another means of alerting those poor b*st*ds who are shelling out good money for crap fakes.
If we advised everyone to email them with their experiences they may do a spot and if the researchers contact Trading Standards they will be told about all the complaints that they have received - who knows we could even see Tim on the telly!!  _________________ I love my Rifts |
