Sort of. Saw an advt for Air Jordans for $7. With a pic of actual Air Jordans. Thought to myself, "it's only $7, let's see what happens". A very sorry looking pair of shoes arrived a couple weeks later. With "Air Jordan" printed on them. They weren't actual Air Jordans. There was no way, absolutely no way, to get in touch with the Chinese company that did this.

This is why it's worth paying a few dollars more for certified superfakes instead of the regular fakes.
