Hello - I was curious if anyone has bought shoes from https://www.ebay.com.au/str/feifei9 and if they're a legitimate ebay seller? I understand there's a shoes authentication now, but felt like I'd ask.

My thanks

Ebay do not sell anything. Sellers pay to use Ebay site.

If the shoes are listed on ebay and are an expensive brand the listing will show "Authentication" will be performed. This has been the case now for awhile.

If you are looking at some to buy just check out the listing

"I was curious if anyone has bought shoes from"

When certain 'brand' shoes have to go through the authentification process, it will show on the listing.

I can guarantee no-one here has bought shoes from the seller in Hong Kong, or is likely to do so at any time in the future.

The shoes will be counterfeit / fake for sure

Always check out seller location, which is not necessarily the same thing as supposed item location.

If a seller is in China, you may still be prepared to buy little things (although I avoid it when I can), but never is it a good idea to buy from there if you're after genuine brand name items, electricals and so on.

The items will most likely be counterfeit and in some cases, even dangerous.
