Hi All,
My pair of well-loved Adidas Gazelle OG's are about to give up the ghost (though they have probably done so already), and so I've been looking to get a pair of Gazelle II's to replace them. A fellow HUKD user made a joke about getting trainers for peanuts on eBay and, since these particular shoes are exempt from any discount code at every retailer I look at, I decided to have a look at some listings. There appears to be several listings claiming to sell genuine pairs for about £20-£25 cheaper than most (with tags, original boxes and all), which is good but also leaves me a bit apprehensive because a pair of Gazelle II's for £60-ish seems too good to be true?
Anyone have experience with buying trainers from listings like these?
Any thoughts would be very helpful! Thanks!

Never heard of Mainline Menswear though which is probably why it probably didn't catch my eye the first time. Still a bit apprehensive but, because these are cheaper here than on some ebay listings, maybe I'll give it a whirl and hide behind Paypal just in case things go wrong.
Appreciate the effort!
You are right, some likely are not you should know quickly and as said, return them.
I actually wore them for about a week but they still looked new.
Buyer didn't return.
