There was a couple of sellers last night who listed half a dozen balenciaga bags, but had stolen photos from other sellers.

I searched the site and emailed the other sellers to let them know, and slowly the listings disappeared.

I struggled with telling one seller as he was listing a fake anyway, but in the end decided to do so, so that hopefully it would be one less fake on the site.

He emails me today and said 'Thanks for letting us know but there is little that ebay will ever do about it.'

I couldn't get over this as his is FAKE anyway, and ebay does little about that too. WHAT A CHEEK!!

What also astounded me was the listings were disappearing as sellers informed ebay, but ebay left two up. Wouldn't ya think they would take them all down.

I applaud you for going out of your way to do this!

Maybe ebay should hire us as subcontractors to help them out!

I actually wrote and suggested this and received a form letter back basically stating they don't take suggestions.

Good job!! You did a great thing for all those sellers. Except the last one, of course. I can't relist a pair of authentic 7FAMK jeans I want to sell on eBay b/c of "trademark misuse" but they "can't do much about" fakes? What a system!

P.S. I hope you reported him!

To be honest I've given up reporting, as they never do anything about it. Its disheartening when you go back on, and they are still there.
