I'm sick of trying to make a living on eBay with genuine items only to be massively undercut by the amount of fake items on here. So I no longer bother. Even dumping grounds like Temu, Shein, Alibaba and AliExpress can't use brand names anymore, but eBay allows fake branded (Sony, Lenovo, Mi, Samsung, Sandisk, Kingston etc.) to be sold. Usually people realise too late or write it off as a £10 loss, bad experience. What does eBay do to combat it? They ask you to report 10,000+ results one by one. What a joke and that has what eBay has become. A laughing stock of major proportions. It's an outdated, unpoliced, security lax, unsafe, untrustworthy, criminal enterprise car boot sale with little interaction from humans. I sell on here but I WOULDN'T BLOODY BUY. No thanks, I'll shop on a trusted website. I've tried to warn them but it falls on deaf ears.
