What happened on ebay.uk today?

[tuvili]

I was there just browsing, and something like the first ten shoes I clicked on had been removed! Is there a rash of fakes?

 

[aeross]

Yes, one seller put 30 pairs up. I hope that means that Morgan_Morgan has now gone !

The worst part was that they LOOKED like fakes. I don't consider myself an expert at all, but I was clicking on them because I couldn't believe the thumbnails.

great job, ladies!

That just goes to show how effective we are as a team....

We can ALWAYS use more soldiers in the Fakes thread!

I'm always so hesitant to report anything...sometimes I'll see a shoe and think, "wow, that looks totally fake", but because I'm not sure, I don't want to list it in the fakes thread and get someone's auction pulled for no reason. Any advice for those of us eager to help but not quite as confidant?

^^You can always post in the authentication thread first.

Of COURSE I can...my mind is going. Must be from playing too many rounds of Candyland and inhaling wax crayon shavings all day. Thanks Laureen!

Until you get used to it, you can also go ahead and report the ones we list in the Fakes thread.
You'll start recognizing the commonalities pretty quickly.

Maybe I should get one of each style so that I'll have an authentic shoe to compare the fakes with. Not because I want to, of course - just for the good of the cause.

 

[laureenthemean]

^^That would be a noble thing to do.
