OK, so recently I was checking out some clothes on ebay . I came across some very cute things. My Question is Are they really authenic or not. If a Juicy Couture outfit sells for almost $200 and it is NWT on ebay for $50. Wouldn't that tell you right off front that the outfit is not Authentic? Or if a Coach bag that sells in the hundreds is dirt cheap . Hello !And still people ask the seller if is authentic., HOw crazy it that commen sense should tell you right! What is your take on ebay items?

Great question!! ALWAYS check the seller's rating before purchasing anything. I have not ever fallen for a scam on E-Bay, but came close a couple times. (But then again, I never spend a lot of money online for name brands.) If high-priced brands are greatly discounted, it is possible that the item is being clearanced and sold for a fraction of the cost. You are able to dispute nearly anything purchased online if it is not satisfactory, however, as I have had to do once or twice. Be careful to look at the shipping rates too. A $200 purse may sell for $60, making it look like a great deal, but when you go to check out, you find out the shipping rates are double the price of the merchandise! That is a trick used by many sellers so they don't have to pay high selling fees to E-Bay.

I've bought and sold on EBAY in the past and I think its a great central location for people to come into an online market place. However they do have there down falls where some are just looking to make a quick buck. Those are the people you have to worry about,.
