Purchasing a counterfeit item on ebay

[annibanana99]

Hello everyone i would just like to start with the fact hat i have never purchased a counterfeit item on ebay before but as the saying goes if something looks too good to be true then it ususally is,So i have gone and purchased an item on ebay and usually this would probably go for around £350-£500 i guess purchaing it in a store but i just bought it brand new for £62 so my question is,What happens once it arrives and i can confirm that it is indeed counterfeit as the item i have purchased i can check on the brands website to confirm its authenticity and so do i send it back and ask for a refund or do i contact ebay first  

kind regards

eBay policy is clear....return through a not as described case for a refund........even if counterfeit.....otherwise everyone could claim an item was not genuine in order to keep the item & get a refund
