Is this genuine?

Received this email yesterday but only just seen it as i get comps sent to a email address i use for that purpose and only use for junk.Is it genuine?
There's also an invite for a party which i've said i can't make,but can they post me the trainers which they mentioned in the email.I'm pretty much sure i entered this comp but as we do so many on MSE it's hard to remember for sure.Can anyone else recall entering this comp?:)

    I wouldn't have a clue how much they would fetch on ebay, looks like the majority of them have been given away as competition prizes, I posted a comp that gave some away that ended in August and an MSE'er won a pair then too :D


    spose you could always start them at a highish price and see how they fare :)

    Hey Paul i emailed them to try to find out when we would receive the trainers and to also try to find out how much they're worth and got this reply:

    Hi Darren,

    You should receive your trainers by next week, as we will receive the
    trainers here from Levis early next week.

    There were only 100 limited edition gold trainers made worldwide and
    they are worth around just over £100 a pair. Designed by both Kurt
    Geiger and Levi, they really are a sought after item.

    Hope that answers your questions.

    Best regards
    Maryse


    Strange though as didn't the original email saying we'd won say that we could pick them up from the party thingy last night.Maybe the website we won them from didn't go to that:confused:

    Just a thought here that a friend brought up earlier but if they have only made 100 pairs how can they give us a choice of size:confused:
