RARRRRRRRRR! I am so frustrated with Ebay right now. I understand and support the Vero program in theory as I hate fakes and the scammers that hock them on Ebay. BUT IN REALITY they are so inept! Who are these people? Ebay tells us that they are "trademark holders," but then why are they so ignorant of whats real and whats not.
I'm doing some closet cleaning for the new year, and selling off a lot of my designer clothes and bags. For the most part, this is going on with no problem, but I have particular problems with GUCCI and VUITTON. I understand those are the most faked, but if you are a "trademark holder" don't you know when you are looking at something real? I purchased all these items directly from the boutiques or Neiman Marcus, Saks, etc...no way they could be fake...and yet they have repeatedly canceled my auctions and now my account is limited and they won't let me sell some brands anymore! Meanwhile, there is a whole slew of ACTUAL fakes on Ebay.
I write them to appeal, and they say, sorry write us back in 6 months.
This is why Ebay will never move beyond what they are now, and will forever be viewed as a venue where buyers are paranoid. They will never get rid of the fakes and the scammers because they aren't careful about seperating them from honest people that are actually selling real items. I am so frustrated right now.
