Has anyone else noticed how many fake designer items there are on ebay? There are a ton of fake Louis Vuitton handbags and other top designer names. It is so sad. I think it makes it hard for the sellers of the real thing because buyers get a bit hardened to buying them on ebay because they get screwed the one time with a fake and are scared to buy again.

Unfortunately this is the case where there are always going to be fake items on eBay at some point or another....eBay do implement their VERO program quite steadfastly, but that again is also partially flawed in that it can remove ALL items....not just the fakes.
I do know people who've bought what they thought were genuine items and unfortunately received a fake....a couple of them did manage to file Paypal claims for this and were succesful....it's still all a bit and miss though.
And yes, buyers do get wary of being bitten a second time.
