Seller Selling Fake Cards - Negative Review Removed
I left some poor seller feedback due to receiving fake cards. The seller has marked it as threatening and against terms of service and it's been removed. The seller looks to be selling fakes on purpose. Lots of fake positive feedback and already a few neutral and negative reviews on fakes being sold.
eBay won't reinstate it and seller is going to continue to scam people on this website. What can be done here?

Mentor5 months agoDepending on what you say depends on whether ebay will remove.
If you buy a fake, you open a not as described case, to get a full refund. Too many of these and ebay eventually notices.
When leaving feedback, keeping it brief is best, “very unsatisfactory transaction” says it all, but marking down the star rating, does get taken into account. Ebay does not expect less than 4.7, so if all dissatisfied buyers marked with 2, seller would soon be in trouble.
The problem with fakes, is that ebay never sees the item that is sold so cannot judge claims of being fake, so it is up to buyers to use the tools that are available to damage seller’s record.

OP5 months agoMake sense to keep it brief. I did go into detail about how others can spot the fake but obviously they didn't like that. It would mess up the scam. Nothing hateful or targeting the seller just advice for others to spot his fakes with a photograph of the fake close up.
I've got my refund, I just don't want others falling to same trap and not being able to tell the fakes apart. He's got a crazy amount amount positive reviews that all say the same thing when you go back far enough. Almost like he sold stuff to himself. Hopefully eBay do something about him he's taking in a fortune as the cards are mid level to high end value wise.
