Don't backpedal, someone bought these for the OP because they thought he would like them.

What one likes and what other people think one would like are often worlds apart.

Yet you have time enough first to post and then follow up 4 times on this thread you created.

I think this is interweb speak for "I bought them from a guy on Ebay for $250 but now I'm beginning to wonder if I got bamboozled"

He's very busy! Too busy, in fact, to use correct English!

I can overlook typos, or even missed words in SF posts. But the wrong forms of homonyms - I cannot stand by and let another do such a thing.

I didnt buy these shoes and never would. They were a gift from a girl I dated for a short period of time. She gave them to me for christmas with no box (sketchy) stating she got a great deal on them. Since we do not talk anymore and since I will never wear them I wanted to get rid of them. I looked all over the internet for the same model and found no similar results so I stumbled on this forum and thought you all might know what your talking about. Since then Ive received a whole lot of people giving there worthless opinion who need a job or a hobby or something else to waste there time with. Those of you that provided productive and insightful opinions, thank you. I will hold onto them until I can get to an actual gucci store and confirm they are infact fake. I have cole haan's that are much better quality than these which is what initially led me to beleive they are fake. Anyone have any ideas on what I should do with these (trashcan, ebay)?

Apology accepted. Now I can finally get to bed. ::whew::

In all seriousness, if you decide to hang around here for a while, you'll get used to the general level of sarcasm, snark, and dickishness here. It's all meant (well, mostly) in good fun.
