Fake Perfumes

Seems to be so many fake perfumes being listed on ebay recently and its not rocket science to know they are fake being the UK retail price is £118 and sellers have them listed for £25 including postage but ebay are not removing even when I report the listings. Has anyone noticed this as well ?

You have no evidence that they are fakes.

Ebay can't act on one report from one other member.

If the seller makes a lot of sales and then has many returns from unhappy buyerrs who also leave negative feedback, then Ebay would take action.

eBay are not going to remove a listing just because somebody who hasn't bought the item reports it as fake, else everybody with a grudge could get a listing removed if you think about it.

 

Buyers are protected against their item not being as described, and if they open a return and leave appropriate feedback then this will flag up any dodgy seller.

Ok lets look at the evidence the perfume is made in England and retails for £118. These ebay sellers are based outside of England mainly in the far east and are selling this made in England perfume for £25 including postage to the UK in large quantities not just one or two bottles . The listing images are exactly the same as images from DH Gate who just happen to be selling the same perfume. In the item specifics the brand is stated as unbranded yet the title states a designer brand so why do that ? Feedback for most of these sellers has negatives claiming the perfume is fake and does not last very long at all. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know these are fake perfumes.

You don't have to convince me.

I can only answer your query based on Ebay policy.

But it seems like I need to convince ebay and when the facts are clear that these items are fake and once reported ebay takes no action what would happen if someone gets burnt from the chemicals in these items can ebay really then sit back and say nothing to do with us when they have been informed.
