fake s&m t shirts?
« on: April 01, 2012, 09:11 PM »
anyone else think these maybe fakes?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MID-OLD-SCHOOL-S-M-BMX-JERSEY-/251019531987?pt=UK_Cycling_Clothing&hash=item3a71ee16d3

they say there old/mid and have the old shield design (bicycles made in usa not american bicycle co) which would be correct

they have 5 different sizes and 9 in total available and no original retail packaging

unless its a old stock find along with the original shield stickers that come free with every t shirt???

None of my old s&m tees have that label in the neck nor have I seen
One like that. And I never had a free sticker either.
Also it looks printed  vinyl not screen print but cant be sure.

I think He's trying too hard

yeah they are misleading, he has now pulled the auction so chris has either got in contact with him and had words or he has seen this thread and pulled em :LolLolLolLol:

its a bit out of order ripping off s&m t shirts to sell on ebay, decals fair enough if the originals are no longer available and the buyers are aware they are repos (like del's great work) but to copy something that is available from the company (s&m still do shield t shirts) and pass it off as real is out of order

what kinda makes it worse is that they knew to use the old logo not the new one so most prob they are a bit of a s&m nut and may even be known on the scene!

Ages ago at one of the Hastings Backyard Jams i was sat with Moeller chatting. Someone walked past with a Green S&M cap that just said "S&M BMX" on it. Moeller said "thats a rip off hat. We've never made a hat with that logo on it.
I knew the dude wearing it too. I didnt tell him it was a fake.  :-X

Damn right  ;D

Yep - was a face-palming moment the next day......followed by some dry-heaving (the missus went away for the weekend so I felt obliged to drink).

Reckon it's someone on here - there's mention of 'getting rad on my bmx' in me feedback ;)

Update on this (misguided) purchase.

Messaged the bloke on eBay, and they offered me a partial refund (as they admitted they were 'replicas'). Wanted to return and get a full refund, and guess what - no response, so have opend an eBay dispute.

Now the sellers saying it said they were replicas in the eBay listing  ;D Oh dear.

Well, Dave Alexander of Rugby (blackwalnutleisa on eBay) - you're a bit shady ain't ya?

Sh1t - better hang onto it then..... you should see the state of the decals they sent as well....vinyl cut (badly). Do wonder if they're on here though (hiding) ;)
