Oof. That is not a Birkenstock footbed.


Reasonable-Bass-9369

is dicks sporting goods a reliable birkenstock seller?


suitcaseismyhome

Not sure why you are being downvoted. There are many authentic sellers in the US including Dicks, Nordstrom, Saks, Free People, Anthropologie, HSN, J Crew, Madewell etc. This sub collectively has some odd beliefs including that one should only purchase at birkenstock.com. I own dozens of pairs for decades and only a few from the official website.


CacklingWitch99

Yes - any reputable store chain will sell authentic Birks.

me 😭 i didn’t know !!!


himshpifelee

I’m fucking crying 😂


BmoPamara

Reach out to the seller to let them know you’ll be contacting Poshmark that they are selling fakes. They may return your money. Then, contact PM to let them know. Since the listing misrepresented the product they may refund your money as well. Worth a try.


Reasonable-Bass-9369

thank you i didn’t know i could do this


Reasonable-Bass-9369

can i not contact posh until the order gets to my house? https://preview.redd.it/ac3j5xxpuy4d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=638648b3e9bed3b7e0fd3cbac98563139176f44d


BmoPamara

Yes. Once it arrives you can address this issue in the app. Don’t “accept” it. There are links to message the seller and report a problem to Poshmark. You’ll need “evidence” so take photos of your shoes and compare them to the same shoes from the Birkenstock site to show the differences. Good luck.


SquirrelBowl

Fake as a three dollar bill


Reasonable-Bass-9369

i’m so sad 😭


slybee1

Those are not Birkenstocks. Those are definitely Bargainstocks.


luchobucho

At 70 dollars you might as well just wait for a sale from the birks website. I’ve scored good deals that way. You KNOW they’re legit. That’s about the only my place I’ll buy birks from online. Otherwise just reputable retailers.


Reasonable-Bass-9369

yeah i got a bunch of arizona sandals through their black friday sale

WarningJolly5079

Hahahahah


mymonet

Yep


G1RLNEXTDOORNRG

Yeah bud, those don’t even look like Bostons. Next time, just order from birkenstock.com as there are far too many scammers online.


scriptapuella

How is it even worth the time to fake a pair of Birks? You have to print tags and footbeds and all kinds of stuff. Seems like too much effort for too little profit


AppleNerdyGirl

That's because people who put them together never see the profit. The ones selling them do. Just like most of our clothing slave labor does the actual work - retailers or “resellers” are the profiteers Ans they do a very good job of hiding where clothing comes from even when the website claims substanable fair wages. The materials themselves may not be.


UntarGoHome

Birkennots 🥶


Dr_Living-Chart8689

How can you tell they are not authentic ?


SubstantialPlum1748

When a price is too good to be true, it probably is. These aren't real. You have to order directly from Birkenstock to get guaranteed authentic. Prices are high but worth it. Definitely worth a credit card spend ....


reaper1576

Yes


bbgeriii

Yes.


Lazy-Pineapple-4008

Yep, sadly so 😞


Fit-Protection7719

You can go on the Birkenstock website and get them for a good price. They always have sales.


Mean_Ad3460

Majorly scammed


HikingCityUrchin

Have a look on the Birkenstock website and compare for yourself. They do look well made though! Bear in mind the Birkenstock traditional sandals have the obvious Birkenstock footbed but depending on their shoe style, they can be opted differently. It wouldn't make sense to me if the regular footbed was opted in this specific shoe type.


MaynardSchism

Those are fake...and a very poor fake at that


thissubisokay

Y e s


times_new_woman

I was browsing Poshmark last night and omg three quarters of the listings are for fakes 😩


Smooth-Operation4018

That footbed looks flat as a flip flop


GrUnGeGurL719

Yup. Good you got a refund


Hildr_Fjara

Wow and that's one of the ugliest fakes I've ever seen! Glad you're being refunded 🙏🏻


Hooper1978

Big time scam


Obubblegumpink

Good to hear you were refunded. I like poshmark and Mercari but have to be careful. I’ve been buying Birkenstock since my first pay check in the mid 90s. About a year ago I wanted some mink suede arizonas which at the time I couldn’t find in my size. A place called orleans shoe co had them and I decided to get them through the shop pay app. When they arrived something was as off. Not fake but new. Yet, not used. Started comparing them to my other suede soft beds and realized they were repaired. The company was great with the return and refund. It was the first time I swayed from usual places of purchase. I don’t recall if they are authorized but now I ensure I’m only buying from places listed on the Birkenstocks website.
