Hello everyone~ I just wanted to share a bad experience I had with a seller on ebay called "ddofans" who has this auction listed:

http://cgi.ebay.com/New-MIU-MIU-Bla...ryZ63889QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

i actually won his auction through a best offer awhile back and received a pair of HORRID smelling synthetic rubber knock-offs. that's right - they didn't even bother using real leather! to be honest though, everything else about it seemed authentic, down to the box, the markings on the shoe, etc. and if i wasn't such a shoe fanatic, i might have fallen for his lies. even after i returned it for a full refund, he still insists the shoes were 100% authentic! they were absolutely NOT!

anyway, buyers beware! do NOT buy from this guy! :cursing:

I'm really sorry to hear about this. I've noticed those fake black patent Miu Miu Mary Jane's on ebay from several months back; IIRC this seller has also sold many pairs of fake Christian Louboutin "Bruges" in the past....again whole sizes only, and from the photos alone I could tell they were "off"....must be from ioffer or somewhere like that. This seller keeps his/her listings/bidder identities private so as to throw off suspicious buyers but if you've watched this person's auctions for a while there are so many red flags. I hope you got a full refund back and again sorry that you encountered such a crook.

Should we have a sticky thread of which sellers to NOT buy shoes from? This could include not just those who sell fakes (as the thread in the eBay forum) but also ones who are just horrid (like that ***ch who sold me a real pair of CL but they were chewed on by her damn dog and she refuses to refund me any money..but she can deal with my credit card company now!).
