Bought a FAKE item on eBay!

  1. yep.. people drivin' by greed... that family didn't know when to stop..

    and that lil boy.. damn.. price you pay for gettin' in the game..

    there's so much stuff on ebay.. you can never trust that something is authentic..

    chances are if you find something 'rare'.. and the seller sold or has like 100 of them.. it's most likely a knock off.

    I've also been had in the past by receiving fake products. There is no recourse as the seller is from the far east. Any way, learnt my lesson and I try not to buy on eBay although I'm a seller.
    As a seller, I sell genuine items and am cautious that my clients get value for money for the items I sell or from the auction. My view is honesty pays and that's the way I've been brought up.

    Hey guys, this could be a repeat --- always take notice of the seller's trustworthy rating.

    well i would ask one thing
    where was the seller situated??
    anyone in the Asian countries i would never trust solely one thing
    Majority of people in hong kong/Thailand on EBay are complete cons


    had bad experience with thai' sellers always fakes
    long delivery
    when you get it ur all excited to only know they are like HAH YOU GOT FOOL!! COS IT DONT WORK!! (i ordered a charger before and a friend ordered something similar)

    Ebay is risky when it comes to bags but you are protected by paypal on fraud and stuff

    need to be really careful on ebay
     
  13. I have purchased items on ebay and have not had any problems. I guess when you buy online you should be wary of the seller and the items that they are selling. I tend to steer clear of purchasing designer bags online as I am not sure whether I will be getting a fake bag or the real thing.

    Dont trust seller if they said the bag is authentic. If the price is too good to be true, then it mostly like it is FAKE.

    I thought theres a rule on Ebay if there is something fraud-like then you contact Ebay and you'll get a refund or like they will intervene with the seller.

    I bought a vest and when I received it, it was in very poor quality with a cheap plastic smell. The stitching was so bad, it ripped open in a few areas... What a joke.. No more ebay for me after that. That goes for Chinese sites and some Korean sites, clothes I ordered weren't good quality at times from there as well.

    I never buy designer stuff on ebay. You can guarantee 95% of them are fake. Especially when the seller has more than one of the same item.
