I'm a new-ish buyer on eBay, and have had great experiences so far. I've been loving the savings I sometimes see on eBay, especially NWT items that were featured on Outnet seasons ago that are now on eBay for 1/4 even that price!
But I've been wondering... sometimes the prices are so low that I wonder if the merch "fell off a truck" or is fake? I always think some brands/items wouldn't be worth faking, and I would hate to think I support theft in any way...
All that said, this may come across as a naive Q, but do people fake clothes and/or steal mass amounts of clothes and list them on eBay?
For example, Rag & Bone jackets/blazers, brands like Alice + Olivia or Elizabeth and James or A.L.C. (er, you get the point...).
Has anyone here gotten fake goods? Are there sellers who sell real goods but source is shady? Or are these just people who work in retail and pass on the discount, or got a final sale item that didn't fit?
It's more of a just wondering question than anything else. (And if this discussion has happened already and I can find it elsewhere, my apologies! Not a frequent poster these days, would not be offended if I'm redirected.)
