Yellow is the official colour. But then some people may not want yellow so if they buy a different colour it is because they want that colour and don't care if it's official, they'll want it as fashion and not to so support so let the man sell if he wants to.

Personally i got one about 3 months ago when they wer just out in New york...and before some twat says im trying to show off im not. I spoke to one of the NIke reps there in Niketown who feared that this would turn into a fashion accessory.
TOO many people will start buying the fake/non charity based ones and money will go to people selling on Ebay etc. These are his words not mine.
So what I do is everyone I see wearing them...i ask where they got it from and if they say Ebay i tell them the reason behind it and recommend they buy it from the Lance amstrong site next time...its CHEAPER yes CHEAPER and the money goes to the CORRECT cause!
Just my humble opinion of course!

The only real ones are yellow... thats the end of it. Lances jersey is yellow hnce they are yellow.
The breast cancer bands are pink like the ribbon thing.
Its not cool or hip making money off the backs of charities!
The real ones say livestrong on the packets in big letters. Yours dont seem to say that at all, i saw the ones your selling in some dusty corner shop in chinatown.
Why would nike sell one box of 300 bands to one person!!! out of the factory (which is in china) Were talking about NIKE here!

Whether or not they are fake the matter you are talking about is if the money goes to charity or not and as he says:
Quote: I do give 50% to LAF or cancer research
So money
is going to charity so let him sell them in peace.
Even though they may have been made fake, money from selling them still goes to charity so be happy for that fact.

Wel if he is stating that they are real when they are fake. Then what credibility does that give him that he will "give 50% to charity" he should say he is giving it all to charity...

Call me skeptical...but why buy 300 bands from the Nike factory, then sell them, make nothing out of it, and give the charity less than they would have got had they sold them directly when ALL the proceeds go to charity.
Something does not add up...
