Ben24 I think it's good this happened because ebay needs to take some responsibility for what is going on with their site. Sure they do say they police items being listed, but what does that mean? They cam look at one auction to be able to say that.

They make SO much money off not only legit sellers, but the tons of people selling fakes too. They make their share of selling fees, listing fees and all the other fees off these scammers.

I'm not trying to totally bash ebay as I buy and sell off ebay also. But you'd think they could run it a little better.

Yes, buyers should know what they are buying. But hey, some don't and it's not their fault and they should be taken for $$ just because they trust what a seller is offering is real. It seems like it's only after you've been taken on ebay that you learn how it really is on there.

As for your question in your post:

"do people really buy something cause it has someone name on it ????? i dont think so ."

Where do you live that people don't buy something because a name is on it? This isn't just about LV items either, I mean in general? People buy things ONLY because a name is on it. They don't care if it is well made or not. They want that name brand and they buy it, real or fake.

ebay can be a great place. But they need to get on the ball with these sellers who sell fakes and ebay seems to turn a blind eye for the $$ they get!
