Hi everyone,
I recently joined tPF and never realized there were so many fakes out there! Well, I had purchased quite a few designer shoes off of e-bay and thought I would go through my closet and start verifying them! Yes, as naive as it sounds, I really didn't know that there were fakes out there for shoes!
Well, most of my stuff checked out, but there is one pair of shoes that I purchased February 11th off of E-bay that I found out was fake. There was even a thread in the authenticate section that said "don't buy from this seller- all her shoes are fake!" and showed pictures of the exact fake shoes I purchased.
I feel really horrible, especially since I left her positive feedback!
Is it two late to do anything through e-bay or paypal? They are already worn. Of course the sellers listing said she accepted returns up to 14 days and guarantees authenticity... but I am way past that time.
Also, FI paid with his Bank of America check card and not a credit card, so I don't think I can go through them to get any kind of compensation.
If anyone has any advice for me to correct past mistakes, please let me know. Also, if I can at least retract my positive feedback, I would feel a lot better.
Thanks for any help.
