I recently sold a pair of pre-owned Jordan 1’s Retro Pine Green not in original box on eBay. Before they were received by the buyer they went to Sneaker Con for authenticity verification. I received a message from eBay stating that the authentication partner Sneaker Con “Could not verify authenticity” of the shoes, the buyer was refunded their money, I was charged for all shipping expenses and my seller rating and reputation on eBay tarnished and basically labeled as a scammer. I found a website which has an extensive database of UPC product numbers for legitimate authentic products such as MacBooks, IPhones and rare or limited release sneakers etc. I entered the UPC number located on the tag inside the Jordan 1’s which were basically judged as fake by Sneaker Con into the search box of this website and the number was instantly verified as authentic and displayed the size, colour, year of manufacture of the same sneakers I had in my possession. But eBay stated that the outcome of the failed authenticity check cannot be reversed and they will not allow me to relist the item again for sale. In my opinion if a job cannot be done correctly it should not be done at all. Thanks Sneaker Con.
